Surviving an Unexpected Storm: A Challenging Writing Task

[Dr. Mohammad Hossein Hariri Asl]

Challenge your English writing skills with this scenario-based task. Craft a compelling story about surviving an unexpected storm, perfect for ESL students looking to improve their writing.

Situation

You are on a solo hiking trip in a remote mountain range. After a few hours of exploring the trails, the weather suddenly changes, and you find yourself caught in an unexpected storm. The sky darkens, the wind picks up, and heavy rain begins to pour. You must quickly find shelter and figure out how to stay safe until the storm passes.

Question

Describe the events that unfold as you navigate through the storm. How do you find shelter? What challenges do you face, and how do you overcome them? Be sure to use vivid descriptions and detailed storytelling to bring your experience to life.

[Farhang Hooshmand]

I sought for a shelter from a sudden storm. I secured myself behind a boulder and waited for the tempest to subside. Once the storm passed I looked to find changes in the landscape, refreshed by the experience and familiarized to nature’s beauty and power.
