3. Write a Paragraph

        I had a very bad morning yesterday. To begin with, I overslept and missed my bus. Then, as I rushed out of the door, it started to rain. I didn’t want to waste any time running back home to get an umbrella, so I simply put my schoolbag under my jacket, hoping that it wouldn’t get too wet. But then suddenly, I slipped and fell on the wet sidewalk. My glasses flew off, and everyone started looking at me. I was very embarrassed. But my bad morning didn’t end there. As I was trying to find my glasses, a car drove through a puddle of water and splashed water all over me. It was very hard for me to see anything with my face covered with muddy water. I finally found my glasses, but they were broken. Wet and dirty from head to toe, I finally arrived at school. When my classmates saw me, they all broke out into laughter. It goes without saying that yesterday really was not my day.
