Running home in panic, he asks his mother for answers. Mama explains that the phenomenon is an eclipse, clarifies the difference between solar and lunar eclipses, and warns that looking directly at the sun can damage the eyes. Reassured, Dickson watches the light return and gains a renewed chance to live calmly with his family.","Is it the End of the World?  \nSchool Journal Junior 1, 2009-V1 .1  \nEnglish Science  \nI was busy chasing lizards up and down the shrubs near the main road when I realised something unusual was happening. The place was beginning to get dark. I thought a cloud had covered the sun and it would go away, so I carried on chasing lizards. But then the place seemed to begetting darker and darker.  \n1  \nWhen I looked up, it seemed as if something had taken a big bite out of the sun. I was so scared. What was happening? Something was eating the sun!  \nSuddenly, the place was covered with darkness. Where the sun had been there was a black circle, with red fire around it. I asked myself,“Why is it that the sun has not yet set for the afternoon but the place is already dark? It must be the end  \n2  \nI was so scared I started to shiver. The bow and arrows slid from my hands and fell to the ground. With tears dripping down my cheeks, I ran as fast as I could towards my house. Mama and my two bubus were outside. I ran to them, crying. Mama stretched her arms out to me and I collapsed into her and hid my face under her blouse.“Mama! Mama!“ I cried. I wouldn’t let go of her.  \n\"It’s all right, Dickson. You will be OK.\"\"Is it the end of the world?\" I asked.  \n3  \n“No, no, my son. It's not the end of the world. Don't be scared. You are safe and sound in my arms. It's only an eclipse,“ said Mama.“Mama, what's an eclipse?\" “There are two kinds. You know that the moon goes around the earth. Sometimes it gets between us and the sun and blocks out the light. It makes a shadow on the earth.  \n4  \nA lunar eclipse is similar, but that's when the moon’s light gets blocked out at night,\" explained Mama.  \n5  \n\"You mean we are having a solar eclipse?\" I asked, looking up.  \n\"Exactly,\" replied Mama. \"But listen, you must never look at the sun. Even when there is an eclipse, it is still strong enough to damage your eyes.\"She wiped away my tears. \"You’II be all right, son.\"  \nI felt safe and secure in Mama's powerful arms.  \n6  \nSome hours later, the sun resumed its duty and the welcoming hymns of the cicadas started again. I was glad. It wasn't the end of the world! I had another chance to live my life with the rest of my family!  \nI ran off to pick up my bow and arrows and put them away safely for the next time.  \n7  \nCheck Your Understanding  \n1) Why shouldn’t you look at the sun?  \n a) It is bright  \n b) You will see an eclipse  \n c) You might damage your eyes  \n d) You will get scared  \nCheck Your Understanding  \n2) Who was Dickson’s mother with?  \n a) By herself  \n b) His aunty  \n c) His brothers  \n d) His bubus","cbCaivC0Y4U6TKa1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivC0Y4U6TKa1","pdf",1155492,2,23,"English","en",105,"# The Sun Disappears\n## Fear and Running Home\n## Mama Explains the Eclipse\n## Eclipse Types and Eye Safety\n## The Sun Returns - Relief and a New Start\n# Check Your Understanding\n## Why You Shouldn’t Look at the Sun\n## Who Was Dickson’s Mother With","[{\"question\":\"What happened to the sky that scared Dickson?\",\"answer\":\"The place grew darker and the sun seemed to be eaten, replaced by a black circle with red fire around it.\"},{\"question\":\"What did Dickson’s mother say it was?\",\"answer\":\"She said it was an eclipse, not the end of the world.\"},{\"question\":\"Why shouldn’t you look at the sun during an eclipse?\",\"answer\":\"Even during an eclipse, the sun is still strong enough to damage your eyes.\"}]",1784288776,35,{"code":4,"msg":30,"data":31},"ok",{"site_id":24,"language":23,"slug":32,"title":13,"keywords":33,"description":14,"schema_data":34,"social_meta":85,"head_meta":87,"extra_data":89,"updated_unix":27},"is-it-the-end-of-the-world-a-solar-eclipse-story","",{"@graph":35,"@context":84},[36,52,67],{"@type":37,"itemListElement":38},"BreadcrumbList",[39,43,46,49],{"item":40,"name":41,"@type":42,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":44,"name":45,"@type":42,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",{"item":47,"name":12,"@type":42,"position":48},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/story-novel/",3,{"item":50,"name":13,"@type":42,"position":51},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/is-it-the-end-of-the-world-a-solar-eclipse-story/89886/",4,{"url":50,"name":13,"@type":53,"author":54,"headline":13,"publisher":56,"fileFormat":59,"inLanguage":23,"description":14,"dateModified":60,"datePublished":61,"encodingFormat":59,"isAccessibleForFree":62,"interactionStatistic":63},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":55},"Person",{"url":40,"name":57,"@type":58},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-07-27","2026-07-17",true,{"@type":64,"interactionType":65,"userInteractionCount":20},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":66},"ViewAction",{"@type":68,"mainEntity":69},"FAQPage",[70,76,80],{"name":71,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":73},"What happened to the sky that scared Dickson?","Question",{"text":74,"@type":75},"The place grew darker and the sun seemed to be eaten, replaced by a black circle with red fire around it.","Answer",{"name":77,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":78},"What did Dickson’s mother say it was?",{"text":79,"@type":75},"She said it was an eclipse, not the end of the world.",{"name":81,"@type":72,"acceptedAnswer":82},"Why shouldn’t you look at the sun during an eclipse?",{"text":83,"@type":75},"Even during an eclipse, the sun is still strong enough to damage your eyes.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":50,"og:type":86,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":57,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":88,"canonical":50},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":24},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":91},[92,95,99,103,108,113,118,123,128,131,135],{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":93,"slug":94},90,"story-novel",{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":96,"show_sort_weight":97,"slug":98},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":51,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":100,"show_sort_weight":101,"slug":102},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":104,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":109,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":110,"show_sort_weight":111,"slug":112},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":114,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":115,"show_sort_weight":116,"slug":117},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":119,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":121,"slug":122},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":124,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":125,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":127},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":126,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":129,"show_sort_weight":126,"slug":130},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":132,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":133,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":134},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":136,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":45,"category_name":137,"show_sort_weight":104,"slug":138},19,"General","general"]
