task 4(: Little Red Riding Hood
So I approached the little girl in the red hood.
"Why, hello there." continuing, " Are they freshly-baked cookies?"
"Oh yes," she reply.
"Do you want one?" she asked me witha sweet smile.
I nodded and went off. Still, I was curious why this sweet girl went to the woods. I followed her behind the bushes slyly. Soon, I saw a cottage.
"Never have I seen this here before," I asked myself.
With curiosity, I peeked into the house and there was an old woman lying in bed. Suddenly, i heard footsteps coming. I didn't know what to do but knocked on the door and let myself in. The old woman was terrified and began to scream. I was scared out of my wits so I gobbled her and quickly get dressed like her before anyone was there.
Moments later, someone was knocking on the door. Quickly, i went to my position and use my high-pitched voice. The door began to open and a girl in a red hood appear. It was her. Finally, I can be close and make friends with her. She kept asking questions off my body features and i began to feel uncomfortable. So I took off my clothes and put on a smile.
"AH! WOLF!" the girl screamed and ran out of the house beofre i could say anything.
I tried to catch up with her and tell her that i want to be friends. I was out of breath and stop. Out of the blue from a distance, I saw a man running towards me with an axe. I was about to run until I fell helplessly and blood flowing profusely. It was the end of me.

task 3(:
Yes, dressing up for a red carpet event or doing photoshoots for magazines sounds exciting but when it is too much, it is just out of control. I am sixteen and homeschooled because my parents do not want my studies affected by the eye staring in class. I'm taking my driver license this year and how thrilling it sounds it isn't for me. I need a private tutor and approval from my parents. Sometimes I just wished I could lived a normal live but many people want my status and the oppurtunities of a Superstar is just spectacular.
My only best friend is Cloe and she is just a regular student. I knew her since kindergarden and since then we are inseparable. I have told her about me and my normal life dream and since she is a good friend, she decided to unglam me. Finally, my time to let her shine. She get me wig, clothes from Target and contacts.
The only people knew about this are my manager, Cloe , family and stylist. One saturday afternoon, we all gather at my place and let the makeover begin. My natural brown eyes are replaced with blue contacts and my dyed-blonde hair is now under a dark-brown wig. Hours later, my transformation was a success. This hollywood superstar is now a high school student. Me and Cloe decided to hit then town and hoping nobody notices me.
Weeks of being unnoticed have been an amazing experience. I definitely love it but now work is back. My manager helped me with a schedule for my Superstar and normal life. It was going just fine until Cloe's sweet sixteen birthday.
Not many people know about Cloe's Superstar friend so I went as the "normal" kid. So far, nothing happen and Cloe is avout to blow her cake which was a surprise. Her parents off the light and seconds later someone trip and pull my wig, a big bang was heard. The lights are begining to on and beofre i could run, everybody who was there was schocked including Cloe's parents.
A moment of killer silence.
"You are a superstar right?" a voice questioned me.
The night was from Cloe's celebration to a get-to-know-me session. Finally, the night was over and Cloe seems upset. The only was for me to repay now is to give her a present which i did, a camera that she has been saving up for. The atmosphere of the night was high. Since then, we were even inseperable and we even dress up as one another to confuse the public.
task 2(:
Task 1a[v]
The sound of people cheering and shouting gave me a flashback. Today is my little brother's, John, interschool marathon championship and on this very day of last year was mine. I was hoping that it would be a memorable experience but it was just not.
Months of hard and intense workout I've put into that championship resulting in blisters and aches but i still carry on. On the day, i was on my game. Confidence was in me and i can feel that trophy in my hands as I know I'm one of the best. Before this, I've never made any contact with my competitors and that made me work harder.
It was time for the runners to be ready on the track and my time to see who I'm competing with. None of them scared me even the big ones.
"You sure you're up for this?" a dark-skinned guy with huge muscles asked me suddenly.
"No doubt," I replied with confident.
He smiled and point towards the supporters. My brother , who was the only supporter i had on that day was being carried by two huge guys.
"You sure?" the dark-skinned guy asked me again.
I was sweating in fear, I know I had to make a decision, either the race or my brother. Strangely no one was concern about him as they were busy with their things. I know I will do anything to win the race so I did.
"I'm off", I said to the guy.
He smiled and I left the place. I did not regret my choice but I regretted on not doing something to stop it. The two huge guys let my brother off and he ran towrds me. Apparently, my parents was overseas and we had decided to keep this to ourselves.
In the end, the guy who threathen me did win and I was pissed. Until today I had wished for that trophy and have a honour to be the best runner. Sounds of people cheering gets louder and louder. The race is about to end and down with two runners, my brother and a girl. The race was off and it was a really close race. The judges are looking at pictures and video who made it first.
“The champion is,” a tall guy witha huge hat announcing, “ Brayon !”
