Once upon a time, there was a big cargo barge that needed to transport lots of heavy machinery from one place to another. The barge had a helicopter on the deck, a bulldozer, a passenger tractor and a crane.

One day, the barge set off towards its destination. The passengers were excited to see all the machines in action. The helicopter flew ahead to make sure the way was clear. The bulldozer pushed aside any obstacles in the barge's path. The passenger tractor drove the workers to where they needed to be. And the crane lifted heavy loads onto the barge.

Finally, the barge arrived at its destination, and all the machines got to work unloading the cargo. The bulldozer cleared the way, the crane lifted the heavy loads, and the passenger tractor drove the workers to where they needed to be.

Everyone was so happy that the barge and its machines had made such a smooth and successful journey. The end.

1. What was the cargo barge carrying?
2. What machines were on board the barge?
3. How did the helicopter help the barge's journey?
4. What did the bulldozer do during the journey?
5. How did the passenger tractor help?
6. What did the crane lift onto the barge?
7. How did all the machines work together to unload the cargo at the destination?
