Past simple and contionuous - is the text ok?
|
Hello, dear friends.
I am just working on a new ws and I created a short text. Could you please have a look at it and write me, if it �s OK?
Thank you very much for your help. Michaela
Last summer Carla was on holiday in the Czech Republic
with her parents. One day they were visiting the zoo when something amazing
happened. A little tiger was born. Carla and her parents were watching the
birth through the window. It took several minutes before the cub stood up and
started discovering the new world around it. It was looking around and trying to climb on
its mother. She was licking his skin and
they could see she liked her baby very much. Carla was really excited and she
decided to adopt the cub. She went to the office and filled in the adoption
form.

Your English is excellent :)
....but your facts need correction:
I don �t think the cub would be �looking around � - How about �feeling around � ?
The tiger cubs � eyes will open sometime between six to twelve days. However, they do not have their full vision for a couple of weeks.

I think the cub would be climbing up on its mother.
You also changed the gender from it to him.
Perhaps you should choose one gender and stick to it. (his skin)
Otherwise a very fine text!!
