Write about Ebenezer Scrooge before and after the ghosts came to him.Before Ebenezer Scrooge met the ghosts, he was a cold, hard man. He loved money, and he didn't like people. He really didn't like Christmas. So people and dogs didn't want to be near him. And he lost a lovely woman because he loved money more!
One Christmas night, three ghosts came to him, they showed him his past, his life now, and a possible future. He learned a lot of important things for his life, and he changed his mind. He wanted people to be happy, so he became a second father to the Cratchit children. He bought a big goose for Cratchit's family. He came to like Christmas, and he never said "Humbug!" again.
Yuji,
ReplyDeleteGood job - you beat Michie!
This story was one of my grandfather's favourites. His best friend was Cedrick Dickens, Charles Dicken`s nephew; he was the owner of a chain of "Dickens Restaurants" in the UK. he also gave me an autographed hardback copy of this book, which is a family treasure now - I'll give to my daughter one day.
By the way, there is an interesting pub in Ebisu (Tokyo) called "What the Dickens" - great food & good English beers on tap. Let's go sometime?
