What had happened?; What was going to happen (but probably didn't)?; What has happened? use time markers to help your reader follow the order of events in the narrative: Before...; Later that day ...; Soon after ...; When ...; While ...; and so on. bear in mind that such articles are usually quite 'dense', i.e. they contain a lot of information in little space وزارة التعليم Ministry of Education 2024-1446 MG_02_COMBO_TEXT_2024.indb 29 29 30/4/24 2:29 AM
