Answer and Explanation:

"Scout's Honor" is a short story by author Edward Irving Wortis. First, let's briefly answer each question. Then, let's put the answers together and form the summary.

Who is the main character?

A nine-year-old boy who is a Boy Scout.

What happens in the story?

He and his two friends who are also Boy Scouts need to go camping alone to move up to Second Class. They decide to camp at a park in New Jersey, but the trip and the camping are a disaster. They fail miserably, but choose to not tell the Scoutmaster about it.

When it happened?

The story as a whole is set in 1946. The specific events take place on a Saturday.

Where it happened?

Bits of the story take place in Brooklyn, on a subway train, and at the park.

Why it happened?

It was a rainy day, which made things more difficult. Also, the boys were proud; they did not want to acknowledge and admit their fears and weaknesses. That is why the whole thing was a disaster.

Summary:

<u>In 1946, a nine-year-old boy and his two best friends are told they should go camping on their own. They are Boy Scouts, and they need to complete the camping task in order to move up a class. The boys live in Brooklyn, and the closest place that resembles the "country" is a park in New Jersey.</u>

<u>One Saturday, the boys take the subway to go to the park where they will camp. This is when things begin to go wrong. They are young, immature, and very proud. Each boy is trying to prove to the others that he is the toughest one in the group. However, they all make mistakes, forget items that should be taken, take items that should be left home, and so on. Besides that, it is raining cats and dogs, so the boys have a hard time setting up a shelter and building a fire. In the end, they are exhausted and afraid. They choose to go back home after their fiasco, but not before swearing not to tell the Scoutmaster about it.</u>

Write a story on,”You discovered a magic pencil while you were traveling with your friends”.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Story writing about a magic pencil found while traveling with friends.

Explanation:

Once during our summer vacations, a group of us decided to travel to the hills to escape the big cities and the heat. And as planned, we were on our way by the very next day.

Once we got to the resort, the scenery was something out of a fairytale. Lush green trees, mountains, clear skies- everything was as one would expect nature to be. It was so different from the big cities full of only concrete and noise. Here, everything was serene and you could clearly hear the birds sing.

We went trekking along the path to the forest, a familiar path for the tribal people living in the area. It was during one such leisure walks that I came upon a pencil, normal-looking but attractive in a way that it makes you wonder why it looks so antique. And as it was old looking, I decided that it would make a good souvenir and decided to take it with me.

One day, while taking down details of places we were to visit, I couldn't find any pen to use so I impulsively reach for the pencil, without giving it much thought. Nothing happened when I write down the words. But, as my fingers started doodling and trying to sketch, I was given the shock of my life when the apple that I drew emerged from the paper. Still in shock, I decided to test it again, this time, drawing a leaf. It immediately came real and it was then that I realized maybe this was a magic pencil.

I did not want to tell my friends about it or else they will either make fun of me or try to take it away from me. So, hiding the pencil, I tried my best to act normal. I didn't have the chance to try out the pencil for the whole trip. And on the very last day of our trip, I thought I might as well see if it still works. And sure, it did. Still unsure what to do with it, I then decided to take it with me to the city.

But unfortunately, I lost the pencil during the train ride, or maybe someone mistook it for a normal pencil and just used it and forgot to put it back. Whatever has happened is in the past, but I will, for sure, remember the experience I had in using the pencil. It was the one personal memory that will remain with me for the rest of my life.
