REWRITTING OF PARAGRAPHS

      EXERCISE 1 (Original)

   Our beagle loves to hunt. Someone opens the back door for her. She barrels down porch steps into the yard. She runs back and forth across the lawn in ecstasy. Her nose cruises the wet grass for smells. These are smells of cats, rabbit smells, and other presences too subtle for human detection. She sniffs. She spins her tail in quick circles. It spins clockwise first. Then it spins counterclockwise. These two activities always occur together. They are sniffing and spinning. They seem to propel her along.

For scents, she scans the wet grass with her nose. Those are scents of cats, rabbits and other existing creatures which can not be awared by humans. She snuffs and spins her tail in fast circles. It spins clockwise initially. Then, it spins anticlockwise. These two activities always occur together: They are snuffing and spinning. They appear to propel her along.
