Ben's Halloween Story One spooky Halloween night, Ben went trick or treating dressed as a vampire. "Where is John?" Ben wondered unhappily. "I can't go trick or treating alone!" Just then, a bush started to move! The leaves trembled. Ben was frightened,"Who's there?" Suddenly, a zombie jumped from behind the bush! The zombie shouted, "Boo! Guess who!" Ben knew who it was and said, "John, you silly thing. You scared me! Where have you been all this time?" Laughing, John said, "Sorry I'm late, but there was a problem with my costume. Let's go trick or treating. There'll be no candy left for us if we wait any longer." "That's okay," Ben said. "Let's get started." Ben suggested they go east first. Several houses looked promising that way,
It was a warm night and we were playing cards i my friend's balcony. It was about 1o'clock a.m. and we were getting sleepy. We decided to go to sleep and as my parents were already sleeping , I had to go home by myself. There is a forest near our house and a little lamp with green shimmer leads into the forest. When I looked straight to it, I saw a man in a black coat, who was standing in a green light.At the same time my friend shouted something to me and I turned my head.When I looked back the man had dissapeared. I was terrified and ran home. I was still trembling when I got in to my bed. In the morning I was retelling the story to my parents and when I finished,they gave me a big hug to me. When I asked,what was going on they said that they're really happy that I'm okay,because the man I met on last night was a criminal,who had escaped out of prison

It was a beautiful day in summer and the sun was shining . The night before , my sister Nora , my boyfriend Mike and I had decided to go boat to the sea . We had arranged to meet up at six o'clock . I was a bit late and just then I arrived at the sea . Nora and Mike were already waiting . We got everything ready . We had boat a few miles started and Mike saw something weird when suddenly the water .We carried on and thirty minutes . I was absolutly terrified . Suddenly Mike shouted : ' Look ! Nora's jacket is water ! ' . I was afraid that something terrible has happened . Mike saw the tail of a shark in the water and thought that Nora could fall into the water and a shark ate him . I said do not talk that way! We call on assistance rather quickly . We need to survive and wait for the boat . When aid arrived three hours passed, and Norast was not a trace. There was no blood or even see the sharks.
At 1 o'clock, the guests arrived. They were my grandparents. Guests brought pies made by grandma and a beautiful bunch of flowers since i'd just had my birthday a week before. Mother asked me to take out a vase to put the flowers in the water. So i did and i climbed on top of a chair to grab my favourite vase with blue flowers on it. Suddenly i noticed a lot of sweets on the top shelf of the drawer and also drawings i had drawn to santa claus. I shouted "mommy, is this the dwarves' storage place?" I was frustrated, because they hadn't delivered my drawings to santa, but then mom explained that because they are so small and carrying things bigger than themselves causes difficulties for them, they make special storage places at people's homes. On the first day they bring all the presents and gifts to the storing room or place and on the last day take all the drawings to santa.
More likely you get to hear some insulting words. When canadian Jody Mann, a Practical English teacher in Viimsi School, first started to work in Viimsi, he had a unpleasant incident with three 7th grade student. ,,I came out from class and started to walk along the hallway to teachers room when I saw three boys playing footbag. Just when was I passing them, footbag flew towards me. So I tried not to let it fall but eventually it happened." said Mann. ,,Those boys got so angry at me. They shouted at me in Estonian. At that time I didn't understand what they said but it couldn't have been anything good." Viimsi Secondary School truly lives up to its moto - ,,School of all opportunities". Students don't have to follow strict rules: no compulsory uniform, no compulsory change footwear, no rules about clothing at all, nothing happens when you skip some classes etc. But is that normal? For freedom desireing people it's paradise, but for future society it's nightmare.
merchants and smugglers, granting them a virtual monopoly. Many American colonists, particularly the wealthy smugglers, resented this favored treatment of a major company. Protests resulted, and it was those in Boston that made their mark in history. The Event The first of many ships which arrived at the Boston harbor carrying the East India Company tea was Dartmouth arriving in late November 1773. Thousands attended the protest meetings, every meeting larger than the one before. The crowds shouted defiance not only at the British Parliament, the East India Company, and Dartmouth but at Governor Thomas Hutchinson as well, who was still struggling to have the tea landed. The owner of the Dartmouth and its captain agreed that the tea would be returned to England. However, Governor Hutchinson ordered the harbor to be blocked and he would not allow any tea-bearing vessels to leave until they had been unloaded. When the captain reported
And Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid And Donner and Blitzen. But do you recall The most famous reindeer of all? Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer Had a very shiny nose And if you ever saw it You would even say it glows All of the other reindeer Used to laugh and call him names They never let poor Rudolph Play in any reindeer games Then one foggy Christmas Eve Santa came to say, "Rudolph with your nose so bright Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?" Then all the reindeer loved him And they shouted out with glee, "Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer You'll go down in history!"
" But the child was too small to give him an answer. "Oh well," sighed the man, "sleep while you can, little one!" "You are back!" a gentle voice surprised him. The soldier turned around and saw princess Eliza, the youngest daughter of the queen, swaying at the stairs and smiling her sunny smile at him. "Your highness!" said youth and wanted to make a deep bow, but a sudden laughter stopped him. "What on earth are you doing?" asked the princess and came downstairs waving with her fan. "Oh!" she shouted then and stopped. She was staring at the baby now, whom was scared by such a sudden voice and started crying. "Could you please be a bit quieter, your highness?" whispered the man to the lady who was widely smiling now. "I'm sorry," she said and carefully she came closer to the child. The soldier hugged it tighter and soon the little one stopped its cry and smiled to the young man. "Oh how adorable!" said the princess in a low voice. She wanted to touch it as well, but

bushes that were quite far away from the house. In the meanwhile Creasha had spotted dad's car. Evil smile on her face, she entered it. She was really surprised over finding a considerable amount of weapons there. Not even thinking she took them with her and stepped out. No one was still around. Then, a pack of matches fell from the weapon-suitcase. "Well, well, well what do we have here?" she asked herself and soon the car was exploding in the fire the girl had made. "Come!" she shouted to her sister and ran towards the first morning bus that was standing across the road. Suzan looked back the halfway and saw the terrible scene her whole house was on fire! She stopped and wanted to go back, but sister pulled her towards. Creasha cried, yet made herself and her twin sister continue their escape. "But mom! And dad! We can't leave them! Crea, we just can't! Let go of me! Hear me? Let me go!" "I'm sorry, but if we want to pay them back someday we must survive you know that
The man remembered about the fire and said, "I could help you I`m one of the Royal Soldiers!" But the woman became even more sad and said, "I am a human myself, just like you, but when I was 7, evil monsters called the ishues came to our city city La Air it was then as I remember..." "Wait!" interrupted the man, "You mean these "ishues" or what-so-ever aren`t just normal humans?!" The woman burst out laughing and her baby cried even louder by now. "Humans? NORMAL HUMANS?" she shouted nervously, "The ishues are pure demons! Even the prays can`t keep them away! We tried everything we could: starting with building more and more once holy and pure churches like this one was then and finishing with..." But the woman couldn`t finish her story because one side of the roof had fallen on her. The man was covered in dust and so was the baby that the poor woman had desperately tried to save by throwing it to the man.
Finally a stranger offered himself to build the church for a big cost, but he said he would do it for free, if the townspeople would guess his name. Once the sanctuary was almost finished, the citizen started to worry that where would they get that much gold for the architect. So they tried to be friends with the stranger and find out his name, but builder would not give in. So they sent a spy to find out his name. The architect was just fixing the cross on the steeple, when the espionage shouted out that is was Olev. The poor man realized that he had lost his fee, slipped and fell to death from atop the tower.

allowance to help her. The man asked them what had they brought and after taking all the money they showed away, he said, "Well, Heartless, you should've done as well as Loveless' s team. Then you'd still be one of us!" But the little girl grinned and said proudly, "I prefer keeping my honor rather than stealing from the old and sick like all your puppets do!" 1 The man got irritated and shouted her out of his house. The girl turned and walked out as if nothing had happened, the other children staring enviously at her. Just before the door she stopped and asked them without turning, "And for how long are you planning to be the Devil's dolls?" Loveless smiled and replied quietly, "Sooner or later we'll join your forces and defeat them once and for all!" The other two exchanged a scared look, yet said nothing. The man was too angry to follow the conversation.

Story As the door slowly opened, I was surprised to see Tom standing there. He looked as if he had battled a bear, which is exactly what he had done. Tom fell into the cabin, reaching out for me. I rushed over to him, crabbing a blanket on the way. "Tom!" I shouted, but there was no answer. He was lying on the floor, bleeding heavily and I didn't know what to do. All my years as a nurse washed out of my mind. What to do? What to do! I kept screaming in my head. "Jess....*cough* I...wanted to t....tell you....." Tom was trying to tell me something, but he was too hurt, too exhausted to get the words out. Our last conversation flashed through my mind. I accused him of not loving me and then he stormed out. Now he was hurt and I was responsible. "Oh, Tom

Gutenberg invented the Bible. Sir Walter Raleigh is a historical figure because he invented cigarettes. Another important invention was the circulation of blood. Sir Francis Drake circumcised the world with a 100-foot clipper. The government of England was a limited mockery. Henry VIII found walking difficult because he had an abbess on his knee. Queen Elizabeth was the "Virgin Queen." As a queen she was a success. When Elizabeth exposed herself before her troops, they all shouted "hurrah." Then her navy went out and defeated the Spanish Armadillo. 1 The greatest writer of the Renaissance was William Shakespear. Shakespear never made much money and is famous only because of his plays. He lived in Windsor with his merry wives, writing tragedies, comedies and errors. In one of Shakespear's famous plays, Hamlet rations out his situation by relieving himself in a long soliloquy
But one that a lot die from is alcohol poisoning. Most people think that you cant overdose on alcohol, but you can. Binge drinking may result in an overdose of alcohol, or alcohol poisoning. Alcohol poisoning is a medical emergancy that requires immediate attention. It's sometimes hard to tell if someone has passed out or is in a serious medical danger. Here are some of the symptoms: -Does not respond to being talked to or shouted at -Does not respond to being pinched,prodded or poked. -Cannot stand up -Will not wake up -Slow labored or adnormal breathing -Skin has a purple color -Skin feels clammy -Rapid pulse rate -Irregular heart rythem -Lowered blood pressure Another common thing is choking to death on your own vomit after an alcohol overdose. Death by asphyxiation occurs when alcohol depresses the body's reflexes to the point that you cant vomit right.
crafty), as well as gender equality, individualism, antiracism, antihomophobia, environmentalism, animal rights, etc. Classical punk rock is a loud and aggressive music genre, which is usually played very raw and by small bands with few members and may draw on elements of heavy metal, folk rock, etc. The music contains a lot of shouted slogans. One of the bestknown British punk rock bands is Sex Pistols; Ramones was also popular. Punk rock concerts are associated with the hardcore dance styles: pogo dancing (bouncing against other people) and moshing (whacking one’s hair and head around). Stage diving and crowd surfing are also an integral part of any punk concert.

Words or phrases may be used with quot marks to imply that they belong to other characters and the author himself feels ironic about them. Sometimes quot marks are used to show that words are used in some specific or narrower meaning. Capital letters are involved in personification and antonomasia. Words may contain only capital letters for emphatic purposes. E.g. WILL YOU BE QUIET! He shouted. It is a tradition to begin every poetic line with a capital letter. It has been a tradition in every language but nowadays it is chopped either partly or altogether to create intimacy with the reader. Even in headings small letters tend to be used. E.g. under milk wood (by dylan thomas). The arrangement of lines on a page has become very significant in poetry. The so called figure poems have appeared. There are poems having shape of a figure (star, fly) depending on a context.

rhythmical effect of the text. Long paragraphs in succession create a monotonous rhythmical effect. A sequence of very short paragraphs creates a jerky rhythm. 6. Capital letters are involved in antonomasia and personification (lexical device). Words may contain capital letters only for emphasis or to suggest that they are pronounced loudly (e.g. "Will You Be Quiet!" he shouted."). In poetry it is a tradition to start every line with the capital letter; nowadays this tradition is dropped, either partly or at all to achieve the intimacy with the reader. Even in titles small letters tend to be used. Some poets even spell their names with lover case letters. FGI 1081 Stylistics (I. Ladusseva) 21 7
I turned to sit up, and this time he let me, releasing his hold around my waist and sliding as far from me as he could in the limited space. I looked at his concerned, innocent expression and was disoriented again by the force of his gold-colored eyes. What was I asking him? And then they found us, a crowd of people with tears streaming down their faces, shouting at each other, shouting at us. "Don't move," someone instructed. "Get Tyler out of the van!" someone else shouted. There was a flurry of activity around us. I tried to get up, but Edward's cold hand pushed my shoulder down. "Just stay put for now." "But it's cold," I complained. It surprised me when he chuckled under his breath. There was an edge to the sound. "You were over there," I suddenly remembered, and his chuckle stopped short. "You were by your car." His expression turned hard. "No, I wasn't." "I saw you." All around us was chaos. I could hear the gruffer voices of adults arriving on the scene
■ YOU ARE BORN UNAFRAID The child is born with no fears, except those of falling and loud noises. All other fears have to be taught to the child as he or she grows up. The two major fears we all develop are the fear of failure or loss and the fear of criticism or rejection. We begin to learn the fear of fail- ure if we are continually criticized and punished when we try some- thing new or different. We are shouted at and told, “No! Get away from there! Stop that! Put that down!” Physical punishment and the withholding of love, possibilities that scare us and make us feel inse- cure, often accompany these shouts and criticisms. We soon begin to believe that we are too small, too weak, in- competent, inadequate, and incapable of doing anything new or dif- ferent. We express this feeling with the words, “I can’t, I can’t, I can’t
We then approached the altar of air: the Vertec. It is, Vertec's marketing department forgive me, a pole with sticks that rotate when struck. The highest stick you hit determines your vertical leap.2 "Show me your best." So I did. Twenty-one inches. My second and third attempts yielded an equally unimpressive 22 inches.

The Asshole offered back. DeFranco looked back at me and explained, "It's not derogatory at all. That's just what he is. It's his name." Outside the gym, The Asshole is known as Mike Guadango. His story was typical of DeFranco's acolytes. He had been cut from the University of Delaware baseball team his freshman year. He responded by transferring to William Paterson University and sacri cing his body to DeFranco
The composer impresses the listener more through the general presentation of the whole. His music is less informative, more cognitive. The Fifth Symphony (1995), commissioned by the Malmö Symphony Orchestra and its chief conductor Paavo Järvi (b. 1962), proceeds with dominating static. A certain sorrow, elegy and mourning mood is prominent. Just at the beginning a question by the heavy brass (F-E-D-E-F-E) is shouted. As an unanswered question, it appears, but vanishes soon without remarkable results. The work is rich in aleatory technique. The three last works of Sumera are introvert and sensitive contemplations and might be called tone poems, sound canvases, musical landscapes. What has been retained from symphony genre principles are the polarities: activity and meditation. 2 In 1 Ulrich Hartmann, Badische Neueste Nachrichten 13 Apr. 1992. 2 Mark Aranovsky.

enough. "It doesn't matter whether or not I have something I don't want you to see. I have a right to space and privacy, and you need to ask before you help yourself to my information and my belongings. You have to stop taking whatever you want without my permission." "What was private about it?' he asked with a frown. "You showed it to me yourself." "Don't be like my mother, Gideon!" I shouted. "There's only so much crazy I can handle." He jerked back at my vehemence, clearly surprised by how upset I was. "Okay. I'm sorry." I gulped down my wine, trying to rein in my temper and unease. "Sorry I'm mad? Or sorry you did it?" After the length of several heartbeats, Gideon said, "I'm sorry you're mad." He really didn't get it. "Why don't you see how weird this is?" "Eva." He sighed and shoved a hand through his hair
