t: as we know, at the end of the reading passage above, captain macwhirr has
   to sail  his  ship  through a second storm. he expects it to be much worse
   than what they have just gone through. have a discussion in groups and discuss what will happen next.
   (students discuss the end of the story. teacher goes among the students and
    joins in their discussion. some minutes later, teacher says the following. )
t: you've done very well. after class, write a passage about how the story will end. you can use your imagination and describe how the captain and his men succeed in passing through the hurricane.
sample writing:
before the captain could finish his words, a mountain of wave rushed to the ship.
how big it was! it was just like a wall of water. it's hard to see its top! the captain and the engineer were so frightened that they both closed their eyes. it came so violently with a crash. after that, they were all wet. the captain could not find
his cap and the engineer couldn't find his glasses. the nanshan was full of water
and began to sink. “pumps!  all at pumps!” the captain cried out. all the passengers joined in them. they used all that could be used to get rid of the water.
some minutes later, there suddenly came the engineer's voice, “the barometre!”
the captain hurried to the bridge. there, they saw clearly that the barometre rose
steadily, “my god !” the captain hugged the engineer, crying with tears dropping
from their eyes!
