Alright so as March comes to an end the pressure is on. My final Cambrige exams are just like a month or so away. I need to improve my English language ( written English that is ). For all the other subjects I will do pastpapers and all that but for English I dont know what to do. My Main concern is the composition part where first you have to write a story of like 350-600 words in an hour ( 40 marks ) and secondly there is directive writing where you have to write according to the points given ( about 300 words in half an hour ).
Now my English aint even that bad. I dont get too many tenses wrong and all that but I think I need to improve my vocabulary and my choice of words. I need to learn more idioms perhaps some metaphors and things like that just to make my writing more interesting which will surely get me more marks. Also I need to come up with some creative ideas for the story I will write.
Now I am sure most you will say that I need to read novels and all that but honestly I hate ( and dont have the time ) to read 800 page long stories. So now if anyone can recommend me any good sites online from where I can find these interesting small stories that will me improve my english . Or does anyone have a better idea ?
