QUESTION 5

Write a story that ends with the statement: It was the greatest act of bravery I had ever witnessed.

Observation

The candidate was required to write a story that ends with the statement, “It was the greatest act of bravery I had ever witnessed.” A few candidates wrote stories that showed that they understood the demands of the question. Many however, wrote irrelevant stories and merely tagged on the statement. Again, many of those who wrote relevant stories lacked the necessary expression to carry their ideas.
