When Laura was a university student in the city, she found it very difficult to live on her grant when prices were going up all the time, so she decided to look for a part-time job.

When she arrived, she was nervous because she felt sure he could see through her claims to have worked as a waitress before, and would turn her down. But finally the interview was over, and he shook hands with her and said, ‘See you next week, then!'

Visual pollution has a greater effect on people than you may think. I remember when I went to a big city, I was really scared because so much graffiti on the building's wall. Then I looked up, and I saw a lot of power lines over my head. Although they were not dangerous, I still felt unsafe since I thought they might fall down. These things prevented me from enjoying the beautiful sights of the city.
I also remember the time when I was a student at a university. Once I was so busy with my assignments that I did not tidy my room for two weeks. Looking at the messy room caused me so much stress that I did not want to study. Then I decided to clean the room and put my thing in their proper places.

Beginning: Once upon a time, there lived a good king and his queen.
Middle: They had no children for many years and were very sad. Then one day, the queen gave birth to a lovely baby girl. The king was very happy. He held a big celebration and all the fairies in his land were invited,. But the king forgot to invite an old and wicked fairy. She came to the celebration anyway but was very angry. She came near the baby and said, "When you are 16, you will touch a spindle and die!" A good fairy quickly chanted a magic spell to change the curse, "The princess will fall into a deep sleep instead of dying." When the princess was 16, she became a very beautiful girl. Her mother was careful to keep her away from spindles. But one day, the princess saw an old servant spinning and so she sat down to spin. When the princess touched the spindle she fell into a deep sleep. At the moment, everyone in the castle was also put to sleep. The princess slept for 100 years until a prince arrived at the castle. He kissed her, and she woke up.
End: They fell in love, got married, and lived happily ever after.
