2.Composition:

Seveal months ago,a new play called 'The world tomorrow' would be performed in our local theater.At that time,the advertisements run wild for spreading/advertising/disseminating how good the play was.Because the play was highly advertised, the public took considerable interest in it.One would expect that famous actors were cast in the leading roles.

On the first night, a crowded of people gathered/collected around the theater looking forward to a good show.However, the play was not so good as it had been mentioned before.After all, the more expectation,the more dissapointment. The people was supposed to be funny but nobody laughted or even there was a little embarrassment/discomfiture. Many people walked out,leaving some bad reviews.

The play still ran for six weeks .At the last performance, there was a small audience, and the actors struggled through to the end.When the last line was spken:'Our six short weeks have hastened/hurried to their end' the audience saw the funny side of it and laughed.Even the actors and actresses laughed.

3.proverb:

He laughs best, who laughs last.    Speech is silver,but silence is golden.
