Writing a Narrative Application Essay — Unit test

Question 11 • PARTA - EVP: PGCPS ENGLISH 12 OC (FALL2026) 791113

Read the paragraph from Yasmin’s narrative.I took a long, lingering look at the tremendous beauty that surrounded me. Nature abounded as far as the eye could see, and the only sounds to be heard were the peaceful murmurs of that which existed in the wilderness. As I sat there, my tent and sleeping bag the only signs of civilization for miles, my heart swelled with relief that I had decided to take this weekend camping trip. I could feel every muscle in my body gradually relaxing with every sight

Answer
a
additional information about why Yasmin chose to camp at that specific campsite
m
more specific descriptions of the sights, sounds, and smells mentioned by Yasmin
b
background information about Yasmin’s previous camping experiences and expertise
e
examples of other instances in Yasmin’s life when she felt so peaceful and relaxed

Explanation

The paragraph describes Yasmin’s surroundings in broad terms: she notices nature, peaceful sounds, and sights that help her relax. The detail about her muscles relaxing “with every sight” also suggests that more specific descriptions of what she sees, hears, and smells would develop the scene. Background about her camping experience or other peaceful moments would not directly expand the description already in the paragraph.
