Writing a descriptive text:

You can think about the next questions:

1. What place do you want to describe? (For example, your home town.)

READING: Read the following descriptive text.

I wake up suddenly to the brain squeezing sound of my alarm clock at six in the morning. The alarm doesn't bother me because of the sound, but rather because of the horribly busy day it ushers in. Today I have to go to the third studio lot at Crazy Star Pictures to film the final scene of the movie I'm currently starring in called "The 10th Planet." As I stagger out of my bed my eyes feel like they are being crushed by the light that pierces so sharply through my window. I wince and turn away from the window and slowly trod into the bathroom. My neck is crackly and sore from sleeping on it the way I did. I turn my head to the left and right and feel the muscles loosen as the bones crack in a low, wet popping sound.

1. Identify and underline all the adjectives found in the tale. 2. Circle the unknown words. Try to get the meaning of these words by context. Write them out with

their corresponding meaning.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

3. Remember than in order to write a piece of descriptive text and paint a picture within your readers mind it is important to remember five things: your senses, so what sense or senses can you find in the text, underline them in red.
