Sentence Arrangement

by harsh.champ » Fri Feb 05, 2010 3:19 am
Arrange the sentences A, B, C, D, E and F to form a coherent paragraph.

A. She just smiles awkwardly and thrusts a card in my hand: "Amy Turner. Pet Portraits
Undertaken."
B. It's a prosperous area so we often have people selling things door-to-door - dusters, make-up, frozen foods -
but she doesn't look like a professional saleswoman.
C. A strange woman comes to my door one day in early March. D. She hasn't got the patter either.
E. I run my fingernail along the cheap gold edge of the card and look at her, waiting for an explanation.
F. "I'll paint any animal in the comfort of your own home," Amy Turner says.
