Write a story about a new beginning.


I will tell you how to answer the question.

*Write 7 paragraphs 

For every paragraph you should include:
-2 Ambitious Vocabulary (Vocabulary in which you replace simple words such as the word “sad” with “morose” to keep your writing interesting.)
-2 linguistic techniques & Structural technique
-2 types of Punctuations such as colon, semicolon, question mark, exclamation mark, speech mark, brackets and dash.

Linguistic techniques:
1.Oxymoron - An oxymoron is a figure of speech that combines contradictory words with opposing meanings, like “old news,” “deafening silence,” or “organized chaos.”
2.Simile - A simile is a phrase that uses a comparison to describe. For example, “life” can be described as similar to “a box of chocolates.” You know you've spotted one when you see the words like or as in a comparison.
3.Alliteration - Alliteration is when two or more words that start with the same sound are used repeatedly in a phrase or a sentence. The repeated sound creates alliteration - not the same letter. For example, 'tasty tacos' is considered an alliteration, but 'thirty typists' is not, because 'th' and 'ty' don't sound the same.
4.Pathetic Fallacy - Pathetic fallacy is the projection of human emotions onto non-human objects found in nature. It differs from personification, which can give any human characteristic to an object, and it is used to create tone or show a character's state of mind. An example would be “the rain fell like teardrops”.
5.Personification - Personification is a figure of speech, in which inanimate objects or abstract ideas are given human-like qualities; they're spoken of as if they're human beings. For example, "Opportunity knocks at the door but once", opportunity is an abstract idea that is spoken of as if it has hands to knock with.
6.Rule of three - The Rule of Three is a writing technique that suggests that a group of three adjectives or examples is always stronger and more memorable than one. For example, saying that something is 'dark, cold and dingy' is more engaging than saying something is just 'dark'.
7.Metaphor - A metaphor is a literary device that describes something as something else, or suggests a likeness between one thing and another. We typically use metaphors to draw comparisons or when we want our writing to have a strong impact. An example of a metaphor is 'it's raining buckets'.
8.Symbolism - Symbolism is the use of symbols to represent deeper meanings or themes. Symbols are usually objects, which are easy to understand, but they represent something more complex. We use symbols every day: A red rose is a symbol of love or romance. A clock is a symbol of time.
9.Hyperbole - Hyperbole is a purposeful exaggeration not meant to be taken literally. It is used to emphasize or draw attention to a certain element in a story. For example: "I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse".
10.Zoomorphism - Zoomorphism is figurative language that characterizes people, objects, places, and ideas with animal attributes. It is the opposite of anthropomorphism, the literary device that uses human qualities to describe non-human objects. For example: “He roared at the sea”.

Structural techniques:
1.Flashback - A sequence of events. A flashback interrupts that chronological sequence, the front line action or “present” line of the story, to show readers a scene that unfolded in the past.
2.Focus shift - Changes in ideas and perspectives, for example: outside to inside.
3.Cyclical structure - This ends where it begins or begins at the end. This structure hooks the reader and makes us curious about how the characters ended up where they are. It creates a sense of doom and inevitability.

*Important note: In all paragraphs except 2 & 5, you MUST WRITE A LONG PARAGRAPH and you must vary in your sentence forms and lengths such as short simple sentences and long complex sentences e.t.c

Throughout your writing, focus on the 5 senses: touch, hear, see, smell and taste.

To keep your descriptive, focus on your surroundings such as the weather. Focus on the tone and style of your writing. Use emotive language to affect your reader.
