 Express I

It was a very hot day and I was walking home with my heavy bag on my back. When I was climbing
the overhead bridge, I was very tired and breathing heavily. By the time I reached the top, I was
already panting.

Suddenly, someone shouted in a frightened voice, “A lorry is coming!” Then, I heard a very loud bang
and I was shocked!

Everyone on the bridge stopped moving. When we recovered from the shock, we looked down from
the bridge. It was very quiet and the vehicles around had stopped moving. A lorry had collided with
a car in the middle of the road. Other drivers in the distance did not know what had happened. They
began to honk angrily.

We looked at one another before running down the overhead bridge to see if we could help. I took
out my mobile phone and called for the police.

When I saw the unconscious driver in the car, I was scared because there was blood on her hair and
face. Her white blouse had blood too! The Lorry driver got off from his vehicle and his face was very
pale. He looked very scared. When he saw the woman, he started to cry loudly.

The whole accident was like a bad dream and everyone watched very quietly. We waited for the
ambulance and police. It was an accident that I would never forget.

Using the phrases below, rewrite the story.

Scorching sun shone mercilessly The impatient blare of honks

Trudged home Oblivious exchanged looks of bewilderment
Under the weight of my bag Whipped out
Gripping the railing Flabbergasted
The frightened voice exclaimed in sheer horror Ghastly sight
Aer – shattering bang reverberated in the air Hair matted with the crimson blood
Jump out of skin Pale face was in a daze
Taken aback Lips were quivering
Froze in our track Gave a yowl of anguish
Recovered our senses Covered his face with his trembling hands
Scene of wreckage Sobbing aloud in deep sorrow
Hushed in deathly silence Remorse that must have surged through his
entire being
Halted to an abrupt stop
Watch on in stunned silence Surreal

Watch the MTV and sequence the lyrics below.

Through the wind and the rain

She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can’t rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she’s loved
Concrete angel

Through the wind and the rain

She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can’t rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she’s loved’
Concrete angel

Through the wind and the rain

She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can’t rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she’s loved
Concrete angel

A statue stands in a shaded place

An angel girl with an upturned face
A name is written on a polished rock
A broken heart that the world forgot

She walks to school with the lunch she packed

Nobody knows what she’s holdin’ back
Wearing the same dress she wore yesterday
She hides the bruises with linen and lace

Somebody cries in the middle of the night

The neighbours hear, but they turn out the lights
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate
When morning comes it’ll be too late

The teacher wonders but she doesn’t ask

It’s hard to see the pain behind the mask
Bearing the burden of a secret storm
Sometimes she wishes she was never born

Rewrite the song. Add and change as much as possible to make the story your own. The first
paragraph has been done for you.

Melissa walks to school every day with lunch she packs from home. Somehow, she looks different
from other school children but nobody knows what she is actually holding back. Her friends are
laughing at her because she is wearing the same dress she wore a day before. Her friends do not
notice that she is actually hiding the bruises with the linen and lace of her school uniform. Even her
teacher notices the bruises on her hand but she dares not asking her. This because she looks too
happy to have any sufferings or sadness in her. It is hard to see any pain behind the façade she puts
on.

Involved in a labyrinth of perplexities
It came to him with a stab of enlightenment
It elicited a remarkably clear and coherent statement
It is a flight beyond the reach of human magnanimity
It is a thing infinitely subtle
It is not every wind that can blow you from your anchorage
Her bright eyes were triumphant
Her eyes danced with malice
Her eyes dilated with pain and fear
Her eyes were full of wondering interest
Her eyes were limpid and her beauty was softened by an air of indolence and languor

 Writing Factual Essays

Do you prefer to spend your time alone or with a group of people?

The adage ‘no man is an island’ presupposes that an individual cannot possibly live on his or her own. To
a large extent, this is true. However, the merits of privacy should not be underestimated as it allows for
the recharging of one’s energy. My personal preference is a healthy mixture of both, depending on the
situation.

I enjoy the company of others when I am on high spirits and want to share my joy. Trying to keep my joy
to myself will only dissipate it, which will render my happiness null and void. Thus, I will prefer to have my
friends around when I am high – spirited. The company of my friends will result in the trading of jokes,
experiences and stories which enhances the sense of camaraderie that I enjoy. Such company certainly
add to my joy. Also, when I am depressed, the concern of my friends will naturally lift my spirits. Their
presence will go a long way towards helping me get over the unhappy circumstance that plagues me. At
times like this, I can fully understand the meaning of ‘friendship’.

When I take my meals at public places like the hawker centres or fast food restaurants. I dislike eating
alone. It is very awkward to try to avoid looking at people around you and usually, I will end up trying very
hard to finish my meal quickly. Eating alone seems to be a sign of loneliness, especially when everyone
else around me is happily interacting in groups. Thus, I will always rather have my meals packed and
brought home to be eaten in front of the TV set than to sit alone at a public place.

However when I am shopping, I like being alone. Having people with me at such times serves only to
distract me, as I will always feel obliged to devote my attention to the company. This will mean that I will
not be able to concentrate on the business of shopping. Also, having company while shopping will mean
having to compromise on the places to go. This will undoubtedly cramp my style as my taste in clothes and
accessories may clash with my friend’s. Thus, I will prefer to be alone when shopping.

When I feel exhausted by my schoolwork or family problems, I prefer to be left alone. This is because such
occasions require time for reflection, which will help me to sort out my problems and begin to recuperate
from the stress. Thus, such times will be better spent on my own. I will not be disturbed by the opinions
of other people, who might affect the decisions that I need to make. Furthermore, when alone, I will be
best able to judge the situation without the need for bias or defensiveness.

Thus, I am not a person who totally enjoys the company of others or my own solitude. Like all things,
different responses are needed for different situations. When I need to be alone, I will enjoy the time by
myself but when I feel the need for company, I will certainly not deprive myself of that.

Advantages and Disadvantages and Technology

Technology, the buzzword of the 21st century, has become such an integral part of our
lives that it is almost impossible to imagine what would happen if it ceases to exist. Through
technology, man has learned to apply tools and methods to improve his life on earth. Technology
has provided man the means to study, develop and apply his skills and knowledge on devices
and machines; hence make advancements towards better manufacturing and productive
processes. Since the advent of technology, the way we live, work and play has been radically
transformed. A tool that empowers the individual and society, technology has given us many
benefits, not least of all, greater efficiency and increased inter-connectedness. Ironically, it is
also this same set of benefits that caused many to ponder over the true value of technology and
whether our growing reliance on technology is pushing us towards undesirable consequences.

The advantages of technology are limitless. Technology is the main engine of growth and
the key thing that fuels a country's development and progress. It churns out newer and more
efficient ways of production that can help cut cost and time. Developing countries credit their rapid
growth to the ability to utilise cutting edge technology and for developing countries, it is a
bandwagon that they are all too eager to jump upon in order to advance economically. For a
society, technology weaves the connections between its members, be it in the form of
telecommunications or social networking sites. Zooming in on the individual, technology
introduces a great deal of convenience, helping us get to places in a faster and more comfortable
manner, and also offers us a multitude of sources for entertainment.

However, there is an increasingly loud chorus of dissenting voices in recent years,

mainly drawing attention to the fact that our growing reliance on technology as a tool has taken a
toll on our social relationships. As a quote correctly sums up, "Technology made us closer to a
person on the other side of the Earth, but further away from one sitting right next to us."
Undeniablv. Technological advances have made it convenient to socialise, but not in a concrete
form that allows real substantial information to be shared or true relationships to be established,
something that only traditional face-to-face interactions can offer. The availability of many
entertainment mediums made possible by technology also means that it is now easier to derive
satisfaction at the comfort of your own home with the push of a button. The confluence of all
these factors has resulted in many critics blaming technology for driving individuals apart.

Technology has come to dominate all the aspects of our everyday lives and as such, the
question is not to weigh the merits and demerits of it, but how to ameliorate the undesirable
effects. We want to continue to live with the convenience of cars, planes and other speedy
transportations, then we will learn to reduce our carbon footprints via using eco-friendly petrol.
Whilst enjoying the convenience of all our plastic materials, we learn to embrace the 3 Rs - reduce,
reuse and recycle. All in all, technology has provided us with many indispensable advantages
that we cannot live without and it has a vital role to play in the way countries, societies, and
individuals function.

Many youths today have become perpetrators or victims of cyber – bullying. What can be
done to solve or prevent this?

In this day and age, where the Internet has gained such a large influence in our day -to
day living, more children and teenagers are involved in what is known as cyber -bullying.
Essentially, cyber- bullying is a term used to describe the use of the Internet as an avenue to
deliberately hurt others. Given the rampant increase of such activities amongst the youth in
our country, certain measures must be implemented to prevent more cases of cyber-bullying
from taking place.

To begin with, one would have to understand that there are two main groups of people
who have to be dealt with. The first group would be the bullies, the people who initiate such
acts of cyber- bullying. More often than not, society is quick to label such a group of individuals
to be in the wrong, without doubt. However, taking an objective approach would
unquestionably be the better alternative in handling these bullies.

In this aspect, the role of schools and the police force would be vital, as both
organisations would have to strike" an" effective partnership to combat this problem of cyber-
bullying. Schools may organise talks or exhibitions to create a greater awareness of cyber -
bullying amongst students, while the police may further emphasise the severity of cyber-
bullying and the consequences that could follow. In this way, a strong message against cyber-
bullying would be sent to a l l students, making all acts of cyber-bullying inexcusable. This
would also serve as a form of deterrence to potential aggressors, who would now have second
thoughts before deciding to engage in cyber-bullying.

The second group would be the victims of cyber-bullying. Similarly, the importance of
schools and the police force cannot be further emphasised, as they would be the people to
provide much- needed support to this group of victims, with many possibly feeling hopeless , in
a state of distress, and some even emotionally scarred.

In most instances of cyber-bullying, victims tend to suffer in silence, fearing that a revelation of the truth
would be too shameful a matter. This would therefore result in youths being "bullied in the dark”.
*
To prevent such bullying from occurring, the school would have to constantly remind their students that
they have the right to stand up against the perpetrators of bullying, and that the school would always be
there for them. At the same time, the school should also highlight the importance of their students'
responses to acts of bullying. They have to help them to understand that if they remain silent and choose
to suffer in silence, the hands of the school and those of the police force would remain tied.

Lastly, but by no means the least, would be the rest of the school population. They are the ones who
constantly interact with the victims of cyber-bullying during school hours, they need to be alert and keep
an eye out for any signs which may point to emotional hurt. These students may choose to inform any
teacher or simply choose to provide encouragement and support to victims of cyber-bullying for it would
undeniably go a long way in healing and mending their broken hearts.

In conclusion, the anonymity of cyber-bullying is one of the key factors that leads to its rampancy. However
if this three-pronged approach is adopted, there would most definitely be no lingering doubt that the issue
of cyber-bullying can be significantly reduced. Nonetheless, one should be warned that the process could
potentially be a long one, for it takes time, accompanied by a concerted effort before positive results can
be seen.

Describe the scene and the people in the spectator stands as they wait for an anticipated sporting
event at your school.

There was pandemonium. Unintelligible screams reverberated through the decrepit stadium,
stemming from the sea of students in red, blue, green and yellow in the stands as they yelled
themselves hoarse, trying to win the cheering competition. The segregation was distinct. Every
single students was clearly defensive of their respective houses. Zesty enthusiasm was pouring
forth from the fervent supporters. The grandstand was exploding with the synergy of the
adrenaline – filled crowd. In stark contrast, there was a flurry of prefects and teachers that
dashed around the worn out track or the neatly mown field in a bid to complete certain last minute
preparations for the annual sports day event, a competition to see which house had the most
outstanding athletes and the most vivacious cheers. A smorgasbord of riotous fervour filled
every nook and cranny of the stadium, breathing zeal and life into the seemingly rundown sports
arena.

The scorching midday sun blazed down on the backs of all, the multi – coloured crowd being the
most affected as they, unlike the teachers and athletes, had no respite from the intense blistering
heat. Beads of perspiration formed on many foreheads and backs; the heat was intensified by
the stale air around the students and the close proximity of their peers. Despite the discomfort,
emotions ran high as the crowd belted out cheer after cheer whilst stamping their feet on the
grainy floor in rhythm to the uproarious clamour. None was to be outdone by the other. All this
while, humongous banners and flags of the respective house colours filled the pillars in the
stadium. The flags were being swung at breakneck speed by a few individuals, their faces
contorted in concentration as these flag bearers struggled to keep steady under the wearisome
weight of the bulky items they held.

The cheering weakened and gradually died down, enveloping the stadium in silence as the
prolonged wait caused the crowd to feel exasperated, with seemingly nothing to look forward to
as they faced the empty pitch. Soon, murmuring and exasperation at the wait became more
pronounced, sounding very much like a swarm of angry bees. It was not long before a chorus of
“why are we waiting” originated from a cheeky group of seniors at the top of the stands, with the
rest of the school catching on swiftly, reiterating the phrase incessantly in a nasal tone.

The chant thoroughly peeved the teachers below who were having an intense discussion. Their
faces broke into similar scowls as they glared reproachfully at the students, unable to continue
with their meeting due to the din the students were causing. It was not long after that a few
observant members of the crowd started making shushing noises, elation on their faces as they
jabbered and pointed at the grassy field. Everyone soon found the source of the excitement
and fixed their eyes on the lone gargantuan figure in the middle of the field, waiting with bated
breath. A small black object was raised into the air in the middle of the pitch and a sound like
gunshot emanated from the tiny thing. The crowd roared; the first race had finally begun.
