COLUMBUS, OHIO, 8.00 am

Many people were returning to their homes for the first time after the level F4 tornado last week. Some people were walking around the area. They were looking for personal items from their homes. Others were in shock and they were not saying anything. A dos was running from one place to another. Probably, it was looking for its owner but it wasn’t having any luck. One victim spoke to us. "My wife and I were thinking about moving to a safer place, " he said, "but we stayed here. What were we waiting for?"

Exercise VI Prepositions

VII Ghost story (1)

Last night, my friend and I went to look for ghosts in an old castle. First, we went to the stairs and we went to the King’s bedroom. Then, we heard voices and strange sounds. I was scared. Next, we walked slowly to the exit and we saw a white light. It walked behind us. After that, the light began to run and we ran, too. Finally, the light stood and it started to laugh. We looked behind us. There was my father!

VII Ghost story (2)

Last night, my friend and I went to look for ghosts in an old castle. When we arrived at the castle, first we hid under the stairs because we heard some steps. Then, when the noise disappeared, we went upstairs to find a ghost to take photos for a school project. Next, when we arrived upstairs, there was something or someone behind us, but we were afraid to turn around, so we told that thing or that person to go away! After that, after five minutes, we turned around and guess what we saw? A ghost !!! We were very scared and we didn’t take any photos. we ran downstairs and the ghost was behind us! We got home and told our experience to our parents but they didn’t believe us! Then, when we were in our class in the school, we told our classmates all the things that had happened and they started to laugh and laugh, but we didn’t know why ...

We went home and thought: "Why did they laugh at us?" Then, the next day in the school, we had a science lesson. When we entered the class, we saw the ghost and we ran because we were scared. I thought: "How did the ghost get into the classroom?" The next day all the class told us that there wasn’t a ghost in the castle. The class wanted to play a trick on us! And they told us that the ghost was my cousin ! ! ! Finally we felt better because we knew the truth and because there wasn’t a ghost in the castle. That was the most frightening experience in my life ! ! !

VII Ghost story (3)

First, we stayed under the stairs. The castle was dark and dirty.

After that, we walked slowly up the stairs.

We heard the noise of a moving door.

My friend was crying of fear.

Next, my friend said to me: "Go away!"

My friend and I ran very fast.

There was someone in the castle and it was a ghost.

- Ahhhhhhhhh! It was a ghost!

Then the ghost stopped and said:

- Don’t worry. Be very brave!

Finally, the ghost told us he was a boy and he lived in the castle.

This is a crazy ghost story!
