true but bring about disaster instead of good
fortune. Write a "Be Careful What You Wish
For" story in which a character's wish comes
true and makes the character regret the
wish.
• The character should learn a lesson from the
experience. What is the lesson?
• Decide on a sequence of events before you
start writing. Also give the narrator a clear
voice.

11. If you dismiss someone, you fire that person
from a job.
Intentions are plans to act in a certain way.

and guide the horse are called the bridle.

12. Descended means to have moved from a
higher place to a lower one.
Accompany means to go together with.
Delicacies are rare and delicious foods.
If you consented to do something, you
gave permission or agreed to it.
