EXAMPLE
There was a delicious smell coming from the kitchen.
It was a sunny day, and Mrs. Thompson, our friendly
neighbor, was baking a special treat.

As the aroma filled the air, my curiosity led me to her


door. Inside, I found Mrs. Thompson, wearing a
cheerful apron, surrounded by flour and mixing bowls.

She explained she was preparing her famous apple pie


for the neighborhood picnic. I couldn't resist asking for
the recipe. With a warm smile, she gladly shared her
secrets.

Soon, we were laughing and baking together, turning


a simple smell into a delightful community gathering.
EXAMPLE
Title: A Story: Waking Up Early

Chris woke up early because there was a lot to do


before everyone arrived. In a quiet town, surrounded
by green hills, Chris lived with a big family.

The sun peeked over the horizon as Chris tiptoed


down the creaky stairs. The smell of fresh coffee filled
the kitchen, where Mom was already preparing
breakfast.

Chris's goal was to organize a surprise birthday party


for Dad, who loved morning gatherings. As the family
woke one by one, Chris juggled decorations and a
pancake batter, creating an atmosphere of joy.

Dad's eyes sparkled with happiness, making the early


wake-up worthwhile.
