So Natasha began to write about the sunset. She described the orange

            and pink clouds. She wrote about the distant hills, the trees, the river, the

            garden and the birds flying past the window.
            As Natasha continued writing, she forgot all about the composition.

            Soon her mother came up to her and asked. ‘‘Are you done? Have you finished

            it? Let’s read your composition.’’ ‘‘Composition!’’ exclaimed Natasha. ‘‘You

            told me not to think about
            my composition. I just had

            a  nice  time  writing  about

            what  I  could  see  from  the
            window. I’ll read out what I

            wrote.’’

            So Natasha began reading :
            ‘‘I    am    sitting    near    the

            window  and  I  can  smell

            the sweet  flowers  in  the
            garden. The sky is all bright

            with  sunset. I can see

            purple,  pink  and  golden
            colours in the sky. I do not

            think that anyone on earth

            has  a  paintbox  with  such

            lovely colours in it.
            There  is  one  cloud  above

            the rest, which looks like a ship sailing in the blue sea. I would like to sail

            on a cloud.

            The green hills look as if they are wearing golden crowns. I can see a river
            far away. It seems quite still, although I know it is running as fast as it can,

            to get to the ocean.





                 distant — far away
