Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Little Red Riding Hood. She lived in a small village at the edge of a big forest. One day, her mother said to her, "Little Red Riding Hood, your grandmother is ill. Take this basket of goodies to her." The basket was filled with delicious cakes and
fresh fruits.
Little Red Riding Hood put on her red hood and started her journey through the forest. As she walked, she met a big bad wolf. The wolf asked her, "Where are you going, little girl?" Little Red Riding Hood replied, "I'm going to my grandmother's house. She lives deep in the forest."
The wolf had a wicked plan. He ran ahead to the grandmother's house and knocked on the door. When the grandmother opened the door, the wolf pushed her into a closet and locked it. Then he put on the grandmother's clothes and lay in her bed.

In drama performance, there are many special techniques that actors need to master. One of the most important aspects is facial expressions. Facial expressions can convey a character's emotions vividly. For example, a wide - eyed look might show surprise, while a frown could indicate sadness or worry.
Movements also play a crucial role. The way an actor walks, stands, or gestures can tell a lot about the character. A confident character may have a straight - backed walk, while a sneaky character might slink around.
And we can't forget about the voice. The tone, volume, and speed of the voice can create different effects. A loud and fast - paced voice might be used for an excited or angry character, while a soft, slow voice could be for a calm and gentle character.
