After-writing Choose some samples and show them in class. Tips on writing: Pay attention to the form of narrative. Pay attention to the tense while writing. Pay attention to the structures of the sentences. Sample writing1: All of sudden, the winds were blowing at its greatest speed, and nothing but the roaring sounds of water, thunder was heard. Tons of water hit the deck again and again. It seemed that the Nanshan was sure to be broken to pieces or sink. Jukes began to think of his wife and children. What would they do if he failed to return? His mind was full of disasters and heroic deaths. “Stop your daydreaming and get down to pump water!” Captain MacWhirr shouted to him. Oh! While he was wondering at the terrible scene, all the others were trying their best to help. Captain MacWhirr used his skills and knowledge to get the ship out of the worst storm and got through it. All the Chinese workers were safely shipped home and all of them were thankful for captain MacWhirr. Sample writing2: Before the captain could finish his words, a mountain of wave rushed to the ship. How big it was! It was just like a wall of water. It\'s hard to see its top! The captain and the engineer were so frightened that they both closed their eyes. It came so violently with a crash. After that, they were all wet. The captain could not find his cap and the engineer couldn\'t find his glasses. The Nanshan was full of water and began to sink. “Pumps! All at pumps!” The captain cried out. All the passengers joined in them. They used all that could be used to get rid of the water. Some minutes later, there suddenly came the engineer\'s voice, “The barometre!” The captain hurried to the bridge. There, they saw clearly that the barometre rose steadily, “My God !” The captain hugged the engineer, crying with tears dropping from their eyes! Stage 4 Writing about natural disasters 1.
