This is really well done Antonio, you have used the vocabulary in a very nice way and some very nice constructions too (e.g neither…nor)
Let’s have a closer look:
> As an example, I´ll explain a short story. > here I’d use ‘tell’ instead of ‘explain’ because tell collocates with story (tell a story, tell a lie etc)
>I panicked and I unsuccessfully tried to find them ON the pavement at the risk of being RUN over by a car or pedestrian.
>Then, another terrible idea struk me: (spelling) STRUCK
>maybe I was been the victim of a pickpocket. (grammar) had been (You will cover this in the Tell Interesting stories course)
> I can say that it was a Rockie mistake! (spelling) rookie
