Paper For Above instruction

I chose the first prompt and wrote about an ordinary person who did something extraordinary. Her name was Maria, and she used to work as a cashier at a small grocery store in her neighborhood. Every day, she greeted customers with a smile and helped them find what they needed. Maria always believed in doing her best, even if her job was simple. One day, a fire broke out in her building, and she noticed the smoke early. She used to be afraid of fire, but that day she acted quickly. She shouted for everyone to evacuate and helped the elderly neighbors out of the building. Thanks to her quick thinking, no one got hurt. Maria didn't think her actions were special; she just did what she could. But her neighbors felt grateful and admired her courage. Before that incident, she used to think her life was ordinary and predictable. Afterward, she realized that even small actions could make a big difference. Maria's bravery inspired others in her community to act bravely when needed. Her story spread through the neighborhood, and she became a local hero. This experience taught her that an ordinary person could have an extraordinary impact if she used to act with kindness and courage.
