The Gingerbread Man

The Gingerbread man made of gingerbread. He was made as a child by a little old woman and a little old man who are happy most of the time but have no children. The Gingerbread man is very small and very cute, I thought. After he finished baking, he jumped out from the oven and ran away. The little old woman and a little old man chased after the Gingerbread man, but the couldn't catch him. A house, a cow, a farmer and some children who saw the Gingerbread man was running and they want to eat him also chased after the Gingerbread man. They couldn't catch him too. Then the Gingerbread man came to the river and he want to across the river, but he can't swim. A fox (which want to eat the Gingerbread man)appeared from bush, and he asked to the Gingerbread man to take him across. The Gingerbread man believed a fox soon, and he jumped on a fox's tail. Do you expect the this story's end, don't you? So, the Gingerbread man was eaten by a fox.
I felt pity for the Gingerbread man and also a little old man and a liitle old woman. If the Gingerbread man didn't run away from a little old man, I though they can live happily together. After all the fox is very sharp.(227words)

Special Dictation(Flip)

Grammar is the field of linguistics that covers the conventions governing the use of any given natural langauge. It includes morphology and syntax, often complemented by phonetics, phonology, semantics, and pragmatics. Each language has its own distinct grammar. "English grammar" is the set of rules of the English language itself. "An English grammar" is a specific study or analysis of these rules. A reference book describing the grammar of a language is called a "reference grammar" or simply " a grammar". A fully explicit grammar exhaustively describing the grammatical constractions of a langauge is called a descriptive grammar, as opposed to linguistic prescription, which tries to enforce the governing rules of how a language is to be used.
