1.Jim ran across the field, climbed up the wall,
and jumped onto the haystack. He leaped
into the air and grabbed the green kite.
Ecstatic, he ran back home and handed
the kite to his sister.
2.Jerry sat by the pool the entire day. The
air was heavy with the smell of fragrant
white flowers. Jerry closed his eyes and
imagined that he was in paradise.
3.Jill dashed down the stairs. She stubbed
her big toe and felt a rush of pain. But
she couldn’t stop. She had to get to school
on time. She hobbled down the street,
knocking over a few bicycle parked by
the side of the road.
4.Thomas enjoyed visiting his grandma during
vacations. He loved the quiet, unhurried
country life. He couldn’t decide which he
liked better—to attend day camp in the city
and meet his parents in the evening or to
be with his grandma in the country.
