Read the text again and answer the questions.

They are always about a single topic.

3. What can we write in the other lines
3. What can we write in the other lines
We use a noun and an adjective or two adjectives to describe the topic in the second line.
We choose three words to describe what the topic does in the third line.
We choose four words to express a thought or a feeling about the topic in the fourth line.We can use any type of words here.
We use one word to say something about the topic in the last line.
