Narrative tenses


A Later, Billy saw the ring was in his cup and took it to a jewellery shop. They told him it was
worth $4,000.

B Then, one day, she was walking in the street where Billy was sitting, and was amazed
when Billy Ray shouted at her and gave the ring back to her. He explained that he had felt
uncomfortable about selling the ring, so he had kept it for her.

C When people heard about Billy’s story, more and more people gave money. After three
months, Sarah had collected $190,000.

D In 2013, Billy Ray Harris was living on the streets in Kansas City. He was homeless and every
day he held out a cup and asked passers-by for spare change.

E Sarah looked everywhere in her house for her ring, but couldn’t find it. She was very sad.

F Six months later, Billy had a house and a car and was no longer living on the streets.

G One day everything changed. A woman called Sarah Darling was walking past and dropped
some money into his cup.

H He also appeared on TV, where members of his family saw him for the first time in 16 years
and decided to meet him.

I What she didn’t notice, though, was that she had accidentally dropped her engagement ring
into the cup.

J Sarah was so happy she gave him $60 from her purse. But she thought Billy deserved more,
so she started collecting money for him. She wanted to raise about $1,000 – enough for some
new clothes and basic things.
