Tara used to have a sunny disposition and welcomed others with open arms, but since her last driving which caused her head and hand fraction, and had left her a bad taste in her mouth , she always gets up on the wrong side of the bed and has a bone to pick with others. Today when Tara saw her neighbor Mr.Hardy who had a high rank in policy and always turns his nose at her and once was her suitor , she gave him a cold shoulder and immediately turned her back on him and passed .
even at work when her clients greeted Tara, she had an icy stare and was cool toward them all, seems Tara needs something new to get her mood back. Might a trip to be far from her hectic life.
I've checked these idioms, Mahgol.
They are in 2 categories; Good and bad
How about considering 2 charactors and comparing them with each other?
Like Sara and Mina or every name whom you like.
Or a better idea!!
You can compare a person in 2 different days once s/he is sad and another s/he is happy!
For example this short one:
She always has a sunny disposition and welcomed all with open arms, but as if today she got up on the wrong side of the bed.
When her little brother had a bone to pick with her she was cool toward him and gave him the cold shoulder and walked away. She turned her nose up at him with her icy stare then turn her back on just about him and left a bad taste in his mouth.
You can try to create a story for this sample test too. For example add the reason of her action today.
