Stories
Stories are written in the first (l/we) of the third (he/she/they) person and present a series of events, real or imaginary. We usually use past tenses in stories e g It was snowing heavily as we left the house.
A story usually consists of:
an introduction which sets the scene (who was there, tune, place, weather, etc).
a main body in which we describe the events leading up to the main event, the main event itself and the climax event.
a conclusion in which we write what happened in the end as well as the characters’ feelings, comments, etc.
In stories we use appropriate sequence words such as: first. Then/Next. After/Before (that). During /Meanwhile, finally. As soon as. No sooner … than. Immediately after (that). Hardly … when … since, while, until. By the time etc eg. By the tune we or lived at the campsite, it was dork.
We also use a variety of descriptive techniques to make our story more interesting and/or dramatic
A variety of adjectives (terrified, windy, peaceful etc), adverbs (happily, incredibly etc.) and verbs (stare, hurry, scream, etc) eg. Mary shouted frantically as she tried to climb up the slippery wall.
Direct speech e.g. «It’s too icу!» shouted Clare.
Using your senses (sight, sound, smell, taste, touch) e.g. Suddenly, I heard a loud bang and saw people looking around anxiously I could smell something burning and then I felt hot art against my face.
