Model Answer & Options
Source: TextbookI remember being away from home during a heavy thunderstorm on a school trip. I was alone in a quiet hotel room when the rain pounded on the windows and thunder roared overhead. Initially, the eerie sounds made me feel scared and isolated, but over time, I found comfort in the storm’s rhythm. I sat by the window, watching flashes of lightning illuminate the dark sky, and slowly, the fear gave way to a sense of awe. That experience taught me that even in moments of solitude and uncertainty, nature can be both intimidating and strangely beautiful.
