The Death Car (an exerpt)
Many hours later, as the sun rose, she was still lying there. She had not slept for a moment. The knocking had never
stopped, all night long. She did not know what to do. Where was George? Why had he not come for her?
Suddenly, she heard the sound of three or four vehicles, racing quickly down the road. All of them pulled up around
her, their tires screeching on the road. At last! Someone had come! Marie sat up quickly and looked out of the window.
The three vehicles were all police cars, and two still had their lights flashing. Several policemen leapt out. One of them
rushed towards the car as Marie opened the door. He took her by the hand.
"Get out of the car and walk with me to the police vehicle. Miss. You're safe now. Look straight ahead. Keep looking
at the police car. Don't look back. Just don't look back."
Something in the way he spoke filled Marie with cold horror. She could not help herself. About ten yards from the
police car, she stopped, turned and looked back at the empty vehicle.
George was hanging from the tree above the car, a rope tied around his neck. As the wind blew his body back and
forth, his feet were bumping gently on the roof of the car -- bump, bump, bump, bump.

There are so26 many reasons why I anticipate the arrival of summer. First, summer is 27warm enough to wear
shorts and a T-shirt, which is much more 28comfortable than wearing big sweaters and jackets in the winter. I spend
most of the summer wearing sandals, and whenever possible, I walk around in my 29bare feet. I live near 30the ocean.
I spend a large part of 31my summer swimming at the beach. In the summer, I also ride my bike outside and take long
walks, which I find very relaxing. Another one of my favorite aspects of summer is having barbecues. I love when
my family cooks on 32an outdoor grill, and then we eat outside. I guess the 33greatest part of summer is 34the ability to
do so much outside in the warm, fresh air. Therefore, I welcome each season and find 35something new and pleasant
about each one.
