The Terrifying Headmaster
Mr.Tucker is the headmaster of my school. He does not wear glasses. His eyes always frighten me even when I refuse to
74 face them. They are sharp, hard, and cold, and he uses them like a
whip. He always washes his hands in an enamel basin in the
corner of the room. After he has washed them, he will walk over to his desk and stand behind is looking at the pupils while he dries his
hands on a small, white towel. He dries each finger separately, beginning with the first finger. His fingers are long and white. He
rubs them briskly without losing the effect of deliberation and as he rubs them, he looks at us with his eyes.
No one moves while he dries his hands, no one speaks. When he finishes, he will fold the towel and put it in the desk
drawer. Then, he will awkwardly smile at us. He really terrifies me.

ADJECTIVE.
75 An adjective modifies a noun. It describes the quality, state or action that a noun
refers to. Rules of Adjectives:
Adjectives can come before nouns: a new house
Adjectives can come after verbs such as be, become, seem, look, etc.: that house
looks new They can be modified by adverbs: a very expensive house
They can be used as complements to a noun: the extras make the house expensive
EXAMPLES:
an ugly monkey a beautiful cloud
the handsome boy the honest girls
We use adjectives to describe nouns. Most adjectives can be used in front of a noun…:
They have a beautiful house. We saw a very exciting film last night.
Or after a link verb like be, look or feel:
Their house is beautiful. That film looks interesting.
76 Sometimes we use more than one adjective in front of a noun:
He was a nice intelligent young man. She had a small round black wooden box.
Adjectives usually come in this order: General opinion
– Specific opinion – Size – Shape – Age – Colour – Nationality – Material
