It was evening when arrived at the gate. We couldn't see the house from the road. There were lots of dark trees and brushes. We walked through the garden. We turned the corner and there it was. It was a very tall house with lots of high windows. The door was huge, old and black. It didn't look like a hotel. Maybe we had the wrong address. 1----------- . It was very quiet
Finally, An old woman came to the door. " Come in", she smiled. We carried our bags into the hall. 2--------- . To the left was a sitting room, with dark walls, lots of bookshelves, and brown armchairs. To the right was a dining roomwith big portraits of old- fashioned people on the walls. There was a long table down the middle with big wooden chairs. It looked clean, but everything smelled old. Stacey and I looked at each other. We didn't like it at all. 3-------- . We were reaally tired.
We work up suddenly. There was a strange noise in the room. "What was that" I said. " I don't know", said Stacey, scared. I think it came from the cupbroad. We waited. 4-------- . Open the cupboard, she said quietly. But I don't want to. I answered
A. It was very big with a wide staircase in the middle
B. There it was again - a knocking, scratching sound
C. When we opened it we were chocked
D. We rang the doorbell and waited
E. But the woman seemed nice and we needed a bed for just one night
