It was so dark that she could hardly see a thing，Suddenly, she heard a low howl behind her. “Perhaps it is a wolf，” she thought to herself. She began to walk more quickly but found it difficult to see where she was going in the darkness. She took a step forward，and found herself falling down a hill，rolling over and over. When she finally stopped，her whole body was in pain. She realised her leg was probably broken.During the fall，she had dropped her phone. She could see the light of her phone，halfway down the hill，out of reach. Then she heard the howl again，but this time it was closer. And then a second animal replied.Lindsay suddenly realised she needed to get help, and quickly. She tried to climb back up the hill to her phone. But it was so difficult and so painful that she only moved a metre or so before she gave up. Then came the howl again. It was much closer. Lindsay tried to climb back up the hill again，but fell to the ground，unable to move her leg. Suddenly，she felt breath on the back of her neck.···The setting (The main character′s reaction to the first part of the story)：______ _____________________The characters：___________________________________The new plot：____________________________________The ending：______________________________________
