Exercise 5 Page 40

Sample answer
Emma could not believe what she saw in front of her. She had been sitting in the classroom for the last two hours, not thinking about anything except finishing her history exam. Then suddenly, feeling that something in her surroundings was not right, she had raised her eyes from the exam paper. The classroom had completely disappeared.
Emma found herself standing in a cold damp castle. She was frightened but decided to take a look around. All the rooms were empty, but eventually she came to big hall and found an old man sitting on his own.
‘Welcome Emma,’ he said. ‘Is there something you want to ask me?’
The only thing Emma could think was the questions in her history exam, so that’s what she asked him. The old man smiled and began talking while Emma closed her eyes.
When Emma woke up she was back in the history exam, but for some reason she knew all the answers. Emma knew that she wasn’t going to fail her exam after all!
