Possible Retelling for the Teacher’s Reference
Helen is telling us about her horrible experience. One evening she was preparing for her
examination in the basement of her house. Her parents had gone out shopping. Suddenly she heard
footsteps on the floor above. Knowing that she should be the only person at home, she was scared
almost out of her wits. Obviously, a burglar had come in through the window that was left open
for fresh air. Plucking up her courage, Helen took a toy gun from the cupboard and went upstairs.
On the way she shouted, “ George, take the dog out.” Also to frighten the thief, she turned on
some lights. The burglar must have heard all the noise and rushed out of the window where he got
on. Now Helen felt somewhat relieved. She tried to phone her parents, but her trembling hand was
simply unable to dial the number.
