1.
A very long time ago, on a small farm of my grandparents, I had to do the important chores. For example to feed the animals or to collect vegetables and fruits. My grandparents weren’t there for a few hours, so I had to do that alone.

I started to collect the carrots in a basket, then the lettuce. I put both baskets in the place my grandmother told me. After that, I fed the sheep, the pigs, the ducks, the chicken and the turkeys. I thought I closed the sheepfold and the pigsty very well but it didn’t.

The pigs split to the right and the sheep to the left. I panicked, I didn’t know what to do. I tried to come up with a plan. This was to catch the pigs first because the sheep had already known the path.
I succeeded to catch all of the pigs in a short time. They stopped at a tree, I was lucky because there were just three of them. I closed the pigsty, then I effortlessly found the sheep.

My grandparents arrived after approximately half an hour and until that I played with their adorable cats. I told them what happened and expected to be upset about my negligence. Instead, they were proud of me because I knew how to handle the situation.


2.
Nothing similar had happened before the day I entered the room and saw what a disaster it was.

I have had my kitten, Caramel, for 2 years now. He's orange, white dotted and overly playful. I noticed he seemed sad and he didn’t have the same energy he had. Because I suspected he just felt single, I decided to adopt a new little cat.

At first they couldn’t stand each other so I was suppose to separate them. They stayed for a long time in different rooms but easily my cats became best friends. They shared the food together, they played together, they did everything together.

One day I went in a trip for three days. I asked my friend to take care of them while I was gone, so she checked and fed them every morning and evening. On the last evening, I told her to stay home because I would get back home.

While I wasn’t with them, my cats, Caramel and Snowflake were calm and they didn’t break anything. The day I came my house was a mess. Everything was a disaster, I couldn’t imagine it was possible.

I wasn’t distraught, but I spent a lot of time to clean every corner of the house. I thought they wanted to make me a surprise.

Homework - Ana
1.A very long time ago, on a small farm, a little girl was walking among the animals like pigs, cows, chickens, horses and others.

The farmer’s son saw her walking, and joined. They weren’t allowed to stay with animals because the animals can get angry and hurt them. The boy knew that, but didn’t tried to stop the girl and continued the walk.

They became friends very fast. Finally, someone saw them walking among the animals and sent them to their houses. The little girl and the boy planned to meet next Friday, behind the stable, at 1 pm.

Next Friday, the boy wasn’t at the location where they planned to meet. The girl was looking for him for 2 hours, until she saw his grandfather. He said that his nephew moved 2 days ago in Italy for the rest of his life.

The girl was really sad, and from that day she would no longer step in that farm again.


2.Nothing similar had happened before I entered the house and saw the disaster in it.

Last week on a Wednesday morning, I decided to go on a walk with my best friend. My dog couldn’t come with us because in malls animals aren’t allowed.

I left my dog at home for 5 hours, and when I came back home I had a surprise. This wasn’t a good surprise.
My house was robbed. I was in shock. I couldn’t understand how my house was robbed and my dog wasn’t in it. I started to cry and called the police.

Until the police came, I had to investigate my house. All the glasses and windows were broken, all the house was full of dirt and my dog’s paws. I searched for my dog everywhere in the house but it wasn’t there.

When the police arrived and examined all the house with a specialist, they noticed there wasn’t a thief in my house. It was only my dog.

After a few hours my dog started to bark under my bed. I was very scared, but i realized that my dog was under my bed all the day after the diseaster.

After what happened, I didn’t leave my dog home alone.
