THOUGHTS/REASONSWould you be interested to buy this biscuit? Why?
I would be interested to buy these biscuits as I like
eating biscuits which are tasty yet healthy.
Furthermore, they are packed with nutrients and it
comes with a free maze game on the side. I am
also delighted that they also have a competition I
can take part in. I have always wanted a TREK bicycle and I like cycling very much.

REASONS
Healthy biscuits provide a lot of nutrition and
vitamins for our body. Along with being healthy, I
also get to exercise my mind by playing the maze
game. Cycling has always been my passion and
having a TREK bicycle will help me to achieve my fitness goals better.

EXPERIENCE
I remember packing biscuits to school once. They
were easy to place in my lunch box and very easy to
consume in the classroom during snack time. I could also share them with my friends if they wanted to try.

SUGGESTION
I would recommend biscuits to my friends and family as
being healthy is a very important factor in living. Being aware
of the type of food you consume keeps you healthy and free
from sickness. Along with eating right, getting proper exercise
daily is important as well. That is why I love to cycle as it is fun. It can be done with my family and friends and it keeps me fit!

▪ There was an old brown door. I opened it.
▪ The door was old. Mould curled up in every corner of its edges. Rain and age had made their marks on its sides. However, there was light peeping through the cracks. Somehow, it promised a new experience. My hand pushed it open curiously. It was a place filled with plants of every colour in the rainbow. What a sight! Eager to see further, I took a step forward.
