Question
Suppose you have been waiting for a piece of good news. Write a paragraph in about eighty words on your experience of waiting:
the news you waited for – what you did while waiting – whether the news had come – your feelings.
Answer:
I was waiting for news about my admission to my dream school, St. Xavier’s Collegiate School. I had been studying hard for the entrance exam, and I was really hoping to get in. I was feeling anxious and excited at the same time. I couldn’t concentrate on anything else, and I kept checking my email and phone every few minutes for a message. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, I got the call. I had been accepted! I was so happy that I jumped up and down and started to cry. I couldn’t believe that my dream had finally come true.
