Read about Jennifer’s bad day and then complete the chart.
I woke up late this morning because my alarm clock did not ring. As a result, I
had to rush to get ready for school and I made a huge mess all over the house.
I missed the bus because I had to go back home to fetch my cellphone.
Consequently, I was late for school, and my lecturer was not pleased with me
at all. Due to the fact that my day had been going so badly, I was in a bad
mood and I shouted at my friends. Since I was in such a bad mood, they didn’t
want to hang out with me and they left. After they left, my day only got worse.
In view of all that happened today, I’ve decided that I need two alarm clocks
instead of one, to make sure I wake up on time in the mornings.

Complete the chart using the information from the previous paragraph.
