She motioned to a chair opposite her. “Cards? Palms? Crystal Ball?” “Uh, palms I guess.” John fumbled in his pocket for the money. She took the money and bent over his outstretched palm. “I see long life… and many children. Ah… but you have been unlucky in love so… Is that so?” John nodded. “Not to worry”. The fortune-teller smiled. “All things in their time. You were not ready for such a love as this. But now… is almost time.” She tossed her head, smiled at him, and looked back at his palm. “Ah, money, I see much money. One who waits to love you will also bring good luck for money… OK! Thank you! Next?” “Is that all?” “Isn’t it enough?” The fortune-teller led him toward the flap. “Not many have a lucky palm like yours.” ATTEMPT AS A CLASS
12. Directly Stated predictions Sometimes authors tell you directly what is being predicted The term “greenhouse effect” refers to the heating up of Earth’s atmosphere. It is caused by the action of the sun on gases that are released when we burn coal, oil, or other fuels. Some scientists predict that if the atmosphere heats up by only two or three degrees, ice at the North and South Poles will melt. The melting ice will be enough to make the oceans rise two to eight feet. All of this may occur in the next 100 years or so. ATTEMPT INDIVIDUALLY
