We moved into a beautiful old house with two storeys. The house was built in 1956. It was repaired in 2003.
At first, really small things began to happen. They didn't make me believe that something was wrong, but as time went on, things started becoming stranger and stranger. Early something was missing, and later on it would be found somewhere else. I just thought I had forgotten where I put it, or perhaps my daughter was playing around with things. Then later on I would hear strange sounds when nobody was at home but me. Yet it was an old house, and sometimes old houses did make little noises, so again, I didn't really mind.
Then things that I couldn't explain started happening. It was November and I was at home alone cleaning the house. When I was sweeping the kitchen floor, I felt a very cold wind blowing my hair.

五、范文:
There are only three girls with good handwriting in our class. They are Rose, Lisa and Lucy. The paper without a name might belong to Rose, but I'm not sure because she is not so good at English. It can't be Lisa's. Although she is a top student and does well in English, she has already got hers in hand. So it must belong to Lucy. Today she is ill at home and she often gets full marks in English exams. Well, now I'm sure it's hers.
点评:本文运用了“牢记关键词法”推测物品归属:“可能属于”(第3句),“不可能是”(第4句),“一定属于”(第6句),通过各种推测来分析与排除,末尾给出定论,水到渠成。
添彩点:连接词but, because, although, so和语气词well的使用,使文章生动曲折,富有故事性和节奏感。
