Writing task
Option 1
Here I am, always observing what this children are doing. I like to look after them, it is a way of being sure that this boys are safe. This boys are Jem and Scout, they are brother and sister and they are always playing together in summer. Today they were discussing about the reason that Jem had broken his arm when he was thirteen. They had a long conversation and at the end they asked their dad Atticus a very respetable man in the town of Maycomb, he was a laser. As I said we al live in Maycomb, this town is a old town. Scout and Jem have got no mother because she died when Scout was still a baby. Instead they have got Calpurnia, their cook. For what i have heard Scout doesn't like Calpurnia too much. She has made descriptions of here a millions of times, her last description was "She was all angles and bones;she squinted; her hand was wide as a bed slat and twice as hard".
Today I have seen how they make friends of a boy they hadn't seen before. His name was Dill and he was from Meridian, Mississippi, and this summer he was spending it with his aunt. At the begining it didn't seem they would be good friends because Jem and Scout didn't seem to like this boy, but at the moment Dill mentioned he had seen Dracula he inmediatly made friend of Jem so Scout hadn't an other option than making also friend of him. With Dill they liked to talk about me. They tolled each others the famous stories that they heard in town about me. I don't really matter about these. I like to see how they play. One day Dill dared Jem to go and knock the door of my house. After thinking it for three days he finally acceded to do it, in all this time i have been watching them he has never declined a dare.
Summer finished and Dill returned to Meridian. Scout is now preparing for her first day of school. Scout thinks school will be as if she was at home but she's got no idea what things can people learn when they go to school. I already had thought about the problems Scout could have at school but I had never imagined she would have problems with her teacher for the fact that Calpurnia had already taught her how to read and write. From my point of view the teacher of Scout learned more than her today. At lunch time, one boy of the classroom didn't have nothing to eat and Miss Caroline offered him money so he could buy something to eat. This boy was a Cunningham and as Scout told Miss Caroline the Cunninghams didn't accept money from other people because they didn't know if they could be able to return them their money. Scout was just going to rub Cunninghams nose in the dirt wham Jem came by and told her to stop. I was glad Jem had arrived because I didn't want Scout to be in more problems. Jem knew the Cunninghams were good friends of his father so they invited him to go and have lunch with them.
I was glad that everything was more or less fine for Scout and Jem. The only think that makes me feel nervous is that Scout has as a classmate an Ewell. I don't like seeing Scout so close to him because I know how he and his family are.
