HERE IS OUR STORY FROM TODAY'S CLASS ACTIVITY 
Once, I was walking on a deserted street downtown, I had had the satisfaction (4) of getting a post I´d been looking for. I had committed (8) all summer saving up for my post, which was a challenge (1) because I spent my money on the comic of my favorite hero (3). When I arrived home, my mother amazed (2) me, she actually had taken the time to read and sort all my comics. I was willing (6) to let her enjoy my comics, but she couldn’t encourage (5) me to lend her my post!
