Crime of Mars vocabulary

Replica, enigma, aboriginal, inquisitive, incredible

Irvin was preparing for the science fair, and he wanted to make a replica of a toy robot. He thought toy robots were just toys, so copying its mechanics would be easy. Because he thought it was easy, he procrastinated till the second to last day of the science fair. When Irvin started working, he regreted his procrastination. When he was trying to focus, he found out that science is a big enigma. He wanted to win this science fair, so he started working even harder!
The next day, Irvin finished his toy robot. It was incredible! When he entered his replica into the science fair, all the teachers were stunned by his great work. But even though his toy robot was incredible, his research was all wrong. Irvin wasn't the smartest kid, he didn't do any research on toy robots. His title for the science fair was "The Aboriginal Toy Robots." Everyone knew that toy robots didn't exist in the earliest days. Because of that, Irvin was disqualified for his inaccurate information. Ever since that day, Irvin learned a big lesson. When doing research or even in class, it's always good to be an inquisitive student. If you're confused in class, don't ever be afraid to ask questions.

  1. Irvin was preparing for the science fair, he wanted to make a replica of a toy robot.
    (This needs a conjunction. I suggest 'and.')

    so copying it mechanics (its)

    found out that making a replica of a toy robot was a big enigma. (there's no mystery in making a copy. An enigma is not something that is hard to do, it is something that is a complete mystery and not explainable, like why we are here on the earth and how we got here, or how a statue with a peron's face got on Mars before people got there)

    Everyone knew that toy robots didn't exist from the earliest days. ('in' not 'from')
