Not bad work. But surely you would expect something more like the 
following?

1. (title) hatsitsah le'ariyel
2. 'ariyel holeket `al haderek
3. vatishax lareyx 'et tsitsah ...

The original form of 2. would suggest that she had already walked 
along the road at the time of 3, not that she was in the process of 
doing so.

Also, is the use in 4 of HINNE with QATAL correct, for the next event 
in a narrative? This is certainly not a common usage of HINNE.
