This is your story after we have corrected it in class:
Yesterday something very strange happened to me.
When I went to the restaurant, a band asked me to play with them. For the first time in my life, I sang a rock song and I loved it. It was awesome because my favourite band was there watching.
At the end of the concert, my favourite band came to me and invited me to be one of the vocalists of the band. My friends saw me in television.
I felt really good because I was famous and I ran to the mobile to invite all my friends and family to a fantastic karaoke party. I did not realize why the photographers who follwed us were always near me and not near my friends.
I guess I wasn´t giving attention to my friends.
I was always talking to the media.

Short Story - class C - the End
Hi, students!

This is your story after we have corrected it in class:
Yesterday something very strange happened to me.
I went to my uncle's house and I saw a very small cat. It was so small that I almost smashed it when I was going to the kitchen. It had black and blue stripes and it had green eyes. I asked my uncle if it was his cat but he thought that I was crazy because he didn't have a cat. I tried to forget it but that weird cat didn't get out of my mind all night, so, I decided that, after dinner I was going to search for the cat, to take that idea out of my mind.
We had dessert and then I went to my uncle's bedroom. I searched everywhere but I didn't find the cat. I went to the kitchen and I looked inside the closets, under the table, I even looked inside the microwave but there were no signs of a cat.
When I went to sleep I thought that there was no cat after all but in my nightmares I saw it at the garage UNDER THE CAR. It was a very small cat and it attacked me,and then I woke up very scared.
He had not attacked me. It was a dream, but I still wanted to find the cat. I spoke with my uncles and I went to their neighbours’ field, to find it. I saw a girl holding a cat, and I asked her where she had found it.
She replied that she had thought it was very nice and could not resist grabbing him. The poor cat was being hurt by the embrace that the girl gave him until he could run away like an arrow.
I was scared, I had to go after it, could not lose sight of it, had to touch it.
I ran after it for half an hour! Suddenly I was in a dark place, like a black hole. At that moment, I got very scared but the will of touching the cat was so great that I decided to continue running with the hope of finding it.

The end of your short story - class D
Hi, students!
This is the place where you can write a good ending to your short story. As you know, the winner will get an extra homework bonus.
Good work!
This is your story after we have corrected it in class:
Yesterday something very strange happened to me.
I didn’t know what it was. I went there and there was a dog, a very strange dog. It spoke and was very intelligent. I took the dog home. My life became much better.
The dog helped me out on my homework, on my day-to-day life and it had great ideas on how to improve my social skills. I am now a better person.
All of a sudden the dog changed into another character. It became a dragon. The Dragon asked me to ride on his back, and then it flew into the past to the Great Wall of China.
But, suddenly, we moved to another place called Portugal and some people killed it because they were afraid of it.
I became very sad and I declared war to the Portuguese people.
The Portuguese people were trying to kill me, but no one knew about the murder of my poor dragon.
I was not afraid of them and I resisted, but then ...
I ran. I trained my strength and my courage to face those people who treated me so badly and that killed my best friend.
After that, I turned and saw all those people who were so cowardly, unfair and bad, but I did not want to do the same as they did, so I followed my long and difficult path.

Yesterday something very strange happened to me.
I was walking in the park when a guy took me to a bar. He wanted me to take some drinks. We had some drinks and I got drunk. When I got home, my wife was waiting for me.
After that my wife was angry with me and put me out of home.
Then I went to the airport and I travelled to Oporto (Valadares).
When I arrived in Oporto I met a beautiful Portuguese girl. She was very beautiful but I didn't speak Portuguese very well and something happened...
Her boyfriend arrived and I felt very disappointed. But she gave me her phone number. Her boyfriend was angry.
After that I called her, but she didn’t answer, because she had turned off her phone. Later I called her to clarify the misunderstanding with her boyfriend.
She told me that her boyfriend had broken up with her and she was very disappointed and sad.
