Adverbs: Writing a story 2 page 68
Last Monday morning, Sarah Brown was in her bedroom
getting ready to go to work, when suddenly she saw a
mouse in her handbag. She was very scared of mice, so
she screamed.
Then she had a good idea. She left the room quietly and
ran downstairs to look for her cat, Tiger. He would catch
the mouse.
At first, she couldn’t find him anywhere, but finally she
found him sleeping under the kitchen table. She picked
him up quickly and ran upstairs back to her bedroom.
In the bedroom, Sarah put Tiger down on the floor. Then
she waited outside the door. Unfortunately, Tiger was
scared of mice too, so he ran out of the room and jumped
into Sarah’s arms.
