Task 2

(a)The girls were excited as they waited for the results.

The day that the girls had been waiting for had arrived. It seemed to them as though they had waited a million years for this day to come. Their hearts began thumping furiously against their chest. The atmosphere in the room had suddenly became tense as the Principal made his way up the stage. Beads of perspiration started dripping down the girls faces.The girls holding their breath as the Principal slowly took his time reading the results.

(d) The old lady sat alone in her room.

The old lady sat in the corner of the room head hung down in loneliness. Her heart felt like breaking into many small pieces. Tears rolling down her saggy and wrinkled face as she remembered the happy times that she had with her children, who no longer cared about her. Her face looking so forlorn and devastated. She cried out to anyone to safe her sorry state. No matter how loud she screamed, her pleas were not heard by anyone.

  1. Oh I really liked the last line of the paragraph about the old lady! So sad yet so descriptive.

  2. Nice description. It helps me picture the situation in my head better and I agree that the last line was so sad.
