Imagine that you returned from an excursion trip organized by your school , Write an account in the form of a diary entry and give details of the trip , Use the simple past tense or past continuous tense form of verbs only.

Today we went to the art museum with the Art teacher, it was amazing.

There were a lot of paintings from several famous painters, such as Diego Rivas, Vang Gogh and even some photos from Andy Warhol!

On the second floor of the museum, there was a big sculpture of a man and a woman dancing and some other abstract paintings that I did not understand.

We also went to the gift shop at the museum where I bought a nice book about photography and contemporary art, and my friend Lidia bought a small souvenir for her mother. The sad part was that the museum was making some reformations and the third floor, where different artists show their art, was closed but after all, it was a nice trip!

Explanation:

We use the past simple to talk about actions that happened in the past in a specific time, in this case, it was today morning or afternoon.

We use the past continuous to talk about actions that happened over some time in the past, they are not punctual, like the ones in the past simple. The example in the text is -The museum was making some reformations-

it is an infinitive phrase with a subject.

1.   in sonnet 18, the speaker wants to describe the beauty of his love, but can’t find the words to do so. the speaker says “then in mid-utterance the lay was lost” when he tries to think of the words to describe his love’s beauty.   through his defeat of finding words to describe his love, he shows his love for her.

2.   instead of describing how perfect his love is or comparing her to other beautiful things, he says she is average and there is nothing special about her.   at the last 2 lines of the poem, the volta changes the poem by saying that even though his love is average in beauty, his love for her is special and unique. so instead of praising her throughout the whole poem, he contrasts her average characteristics with his special love for her.

3.   the beloved asked the speaker to describe how he feels about her. she begins to describe what she feels but "drop the torch" and says that she can't do it because the words "hid in me out of reach." the the speaker says "nay, let the silence of my womanhood command my woman-love to thy belief" and that her silence will have to be the answer to his question.
