I was in London i came by an underground station ,i wandered if i would use it, what would  happen even if i lost my way i can ask or go back to my hotel by a taxi, nothing to be afraid of ,i think this is the time to try what i wished to use ,this is the only chance to catch .i bought a map i chose a place to go then ..........here we go.


I am in Kensington Street, moving to Lancaster gate, what a confusing map, i don’t know which line should i use, is it the red ? no the green ? i am asking a couple to direct me to a place i have heard about ,called canary wharf , by chance they are going to a place where it become before mine . i am following them and doing the same as them .i am inside a place similar to a tube making too much of noisiness a place has no ventilation but one window ,dirty seats people from all over the world ,all ages and some are reading others are speaking forging languages......


Ohh a man is coming toward me, holding something tightly  a above me. His underarm is opposite my face and talking into  hismobile phone and I am ding I can't breath well my nose is turning red and eyes are sreaming , I do not know what to do, ok i will wait until he get off this bloody tube. Finally, he gets off.


I will go beside that window to have some pure air ,the tube is getting full of people who is trying to have seats or they will stay standing up till the next station. A woman with her dog next to me and playing with my shoes i feel shy to ask her to move him away from me. I prefer to stay on foot rather than being disgusted and making trouble with people. i am in canary wharf now, it is a place deserves all that struggling day with hard transport like the underground .although it is noisy and crowded tube, it is the fastest way in London to reach the site you want. so be courageous, take deep breath and go head .........

  5. Well done Norah, consider using more relative clauses to extend your sentences. Revise the hypothetical structures including conditionals and/or use reported speech. You can also put your protagonists thought within speech marks and then you can use future forms etc.

    You are able to convey your frustration of using this form of public transport very well. I think it's something we've all experienced. when I lived in London, I used to have similar feelings about using the tube. Here's some on the pot poetry for you!!

    People, like ants tracing sugar, down, down, down the escalator, through the tunnels, hoisting mini-loads, not-so-precious cargo, a weekend here or there, back to the rat-race for now. A lukewarm latte, trying not to spill it, exhausted, thinking about a shower. Faces, cold, hard, where are they from? What about him? Stoney eyed, her, looking down, face in book, everyone looking anywhere but at each other. Where should I look?
