Creative story:

Seventy-five years ago, there lived an __oracle__ named Maria who was not afraid to speak in front of crowds. The schoolchildren looked up to her as an __orator__ and went to her for tips on how to become better at public speaking. Maria put on incredible shows for her audience using fake __corpses.__ Her __successor__ Martha __incessantly__ insisted that she tell her audience the truth about the bodies being fake. Martha and Maria got into a heated argument. Their friend tried to __intercede__ and calm the situation. Maria went outside for a __recess__ to cool down. Martha was anxious for Maria to retire and secede so that she could step up and take her place as the master of __oratory.__ Maria once gave a presentation to a large crowd of people. The presentation was about __corporal__ punishment and whether it was right or wrong. Martha thought that it was too vulgar to be presented to many people so she went to the __corporate__ building that Maria worked for and protested about her recent presentation. Maria realized she was wrong and __receded__ as the main orator of the corporate building. The following year, Martha finally assumed her new position of power.
