Write one word in each gap.

24th June

We had our English exam today. It was a disaster! We all sat there nervously, waiting for Mrs Jennings to say we could start. Finally, she told us to turn our exam papers..................... Then she read.........................the instructions to make sure we all understood. We had to write three essays in two hours! We weren't allowed to look.........................any words in the dictionary, and we had to write in pen. That meant we couldn't rub anything.....................if we made a mistake. We had to cross it...........................neatly or just rip........................the whole piece of paper and start again. So, I read through the three question very carefully and thought about what I was going to write. I'd just written my name..................at the top of the first piece of paper, and was about to start writing the first essay, when Mrs Jennings pointed........................that there were only five minutes left. Oh dear!
