Here is a narrative titled The Promise. It's a first person narrative with a rather sad ending... Subtitles on if you want to see what I'm saying! #FirstLanguageEnglish #Paper2 #Narrative
I got a C predicted grade in the May June 2020 exams ( which was far from my skill in english ). I retook it at Oct Nov 2020 and my results just arrived - i got an A*. Your channel was 50% of my revision for the exam. Thank you so much
Hi sir, may I write a story similar to this for my narrative? The ending is amazing and I’m sure I’d be able to make my story end that way. However, will they know if I make my conclusion similar to yours and penalize me?
Hello sir, I loved it soo much. I am honestly eager to hear what happens to poor Robbie! But sir I have a question, for my narrative, what tense should I use?
@@IGCSESUCCESS Thanks sir. But I have a problem with my tenses. Could you please check this for me: (I extremely sorry for being persistent) Escape; that’s all I wanted to do in the final hours spent at the office. The hypnotic sound of the clock just seemed to slow down even more. I groaned to myself; I wanted to go back home to my cosy apartment as soon as possible and whip up something nice to eat. I tried making attempts to distract myself by doing different things: organising my desk, cleaning out my draws, and colour coding my notes. It turned out to be a futile way of passing time since when my gaze went back up to the plastic clock - only two measly minutes had passed. Having not the slightest idea on what to do next, I looked through the work out window to the evening sky. The night had come around sooner than expected. The sky gave premonitions of rain. Great, I thought to myself. The only day I don’t come by car. It eventually became 7:30, I rushed out of the office, trying my best to not look overly keen about going home as I passed my boss. Also please tell me what things I got wrong
@@IGCSESUCCESS Really??!!? Oh gosh, the joy it brings me to hear this from you sir. I have my paper 2 tomorrow and I am nervous as a pigeon ( I don't this there isn't any relevance but I am overjoyed by your response.) I have been self-studying since my English teacher left us half way. So I am just hoping I will pass. Oh and I managed to do a bit while you were responding. Here is the continuation: (It isn't finished however) I hastily made it to the bus stop, trying not to push into any pedestrians as I ran past them. Had I missed it? I looked around and saw the bus already metres away from where I stood. It turned over the block, almost in a teasing manner mocking the state I was in. I felt a small pat on my head, then another and another. By the time I looked up it was pouring buckets. I sat down near the bus stop, below the almost dying lamp post. I sighed to myself in defeat. Could this day get any worse? Drowning in my own forlorn thoughts, a gentle cry called out. My eyes shot open, I stood up and Oh and how is the tense here?
What part of the exam is this for? Hmm argumentative writing... Be sure to use lots of facts and statistics to back up your argument, adopt a suitable register (usually formal), use connectives to structure and develop... Acknowledge the other side of the argument and then bring it back to the purpose of your argument. E.g. I find it interesting how some people see x as being x, however, what they fail to see is blah blah blah.
