    I was strolling in the park, when a gust of wind blew my hat away. I felt unusual, the weather in Singapore was changing recently. Suddenly, I turned around and saw water from the canal swishing into the park. This was not suppose to happen! It was a tsunami, I quickly ran back to my flat and told my parents about what was happening. the water was rising and we quickly closed all the windows and doors. I hope nothing will happen and damage our neighbourhood

    ''Hi Dilys,do you want to go out and play?"asked Jane."Ok!" 'They went to the park with some of their toys.They played very happily but very noisily.They were very inconsiderate little girls and did not care about other people in the park.

    Sammy was up all night studying as he had not studied for the upcoming test during the holidays. He was only able to go to bed at 2 a.m.
    The next day, during the test, I saw Sammy struggling to answer the questions. He was panting with worry. After the test, I decided to ask Sammy why he was trembling during the test. "I did not study well enough for the test. " he answered me with a shaky voice. I guessed he was in distress so, after the results came out, I taught Sammy how to answer the questions that he did not know how to do. He listened attentively. He soon learnt from his mistakes and always studied beforehand. He was always in a good mood everyday because of his good habit.

The passer-bys were as white as a sheet.

    Paragraph 2:
    Yi Xuan: The earthquake knocked down most of our city, houses and trees.We shrieked as a huge tree fell on our house.We rushed to our Uncles house, we knocked on their door but only my Cousin answered.We rushed into the house and found my Uncle as sick as a dog.He had a headache and aching muscles.My cousin was invincible and was not scared.He said,"What is the fuss about? It is just a silly earthquake." I said,"It is very dangerous. It even knocked down our house!" Just as I finished talking, a house collasped beside us. Everybody shouted, well everyone except my cousin. He was as brave as a lion.Sunddenly, he sneaked into the larder to get some food.While me and my parents were opening the door to invite my friends in, we noticed our house was collapsing! Oswald: "Quick! The house is collapsing on top of us!!!! Lets get out of here or we will be burried alive!!!" I yelled. My cousin heard our warning and rushed out of the larder with the food. Yi Xuan: We looked at our house and said," What a pity!Look at our house!" After three hours, the earthquake finally stopped. We were so happy that we danced for joy.
