Subject: Write a story which must begin with the sentence "Tom looked at the car in surprise"


After going to the shop, Tom looked at the car in surprise. It parked right in front of her house. It was very fancy. She walked in her house and asked her dad if he knew whose car is that. He said he had borrowed it from his friend and Tom could use it. He yelled with joy and asked his dad for the key. Then he drove to the cinema. Before going home, he put the key in his pocket. At home, he told his dad that it was a very interesting car. Now, his father told the truth that he had bought it. Tom then was very happy because he could use it every day.
