Cheating
Here is my son's composition. Thank you in advance for correcting it.
Cheating
“What are you doing, Jack?” The teacher interrogated, “Aren’t you supposed to be doing your test paper by yourself?”
My blood froze. Chills started to run down my spine and panic started to engulf me. My hands felt clammy and l could not stammer a single word. In the midst of the nervousness, my mind flew back to 8 a.m. …
“ Tip, tap, tip ,tap.” I could hear the footsteps of the coming test invigilator. The footsteps were like the footsteps to doom as I had not revise for it. Although it was only a mock test, my mathematics teacher warned us that it would be very difficult . Only the ones who started revising for the past few weeks would be able to get ninety and above.
The invigilator started to arrange the seats. Once it’s done , I looked around for my pals that I could “rely” on. No luck! They were all sitting very far away from me. Suddenly, I saw Jane, who is not a genius, but smart and diligent. Aha! I had a wicked idea! —cheating!
“Your time starts …now!” The teacher announced. Soon, l could hear the sound of pencils scribbling. At the corner of my eye, I saw that Jane had also started answering. My heart pounded ferociously as I copied. l knew that copying was not right but what could I do? I couldn’t hand in a blank paper!
“Okay, the answer is 1, 3, 4, 2, …” I whispered quietly to myself as I copied. All of a sudden, the invigilator turned his head suddenly and caught me red handed. Then, my memory flew back to now, when I was given a tongue-lecture. I was given a “0” for the mock test and the reason was written beside the “parent signature” line.
I promised to turn over a new leaf and I studied day and day. Finally, with the help of my family and friends, I got a straight “A star” for the real SA1 mathematic. I was over-joyed that all my hard work had paid off.
I am very grateful to all the people who has helped me. Honesty is the best policy and I have learnt that there is no shortcuts to learning, only studying will give you the results you want.

“ Tip, tap, tip ,tap.” I could hear the footsteps of the coming test proctor. The footsteps were like the footsteps to doom as I had not studied for the test. Although it was only a mock test, my mathematics teacher warned us that it would be very difficult . Only the ones who started studying weeks ago would be able to get ninety and above.
The proctor started to arrange the seats. Once he was done , I looked around for my pals that I could “rely” on. No luck! They were all sitting very far away from me. Suddenly, I saw Jane, who is not a genius, but smart and diligent. Aha! I had a wicked idea! —cheating!

“Okay, the answer is 1, 3, 4, 2, …” I whispered quietly to myself as I copied. All of a sudden, the proctor turned his head suddenly and caught me red. Then, my memory flew back to now, when I was being given a firm scolding. I was given a “0” for the mock test and the reason was written beside the “parent signature” line.
I promised to turn over a new leaf and I studied day after day. Finally, with the help of my family and friends, I got a straight “A star” for the real SA1 mathematics exam(?). I was over-joyed that all my hard work had paid off.
