Lesson 3 Making Guesses about People Listening. Exercise 2 Listen to the dialogue and complete the gaps. A: Have you heard anything about the two missing students? I think my French tutor might know one of them. I saw she had tears running down her cheeks at lunch today and one of the other teachers gave her a hug. B: I heard about it from the news report on TV last night, but haven't heard anything more since then. A: Their friends are really upset and have been waiting anxiously for more news. B: I can't believe that they've been missing in the mountains for three days now! They must be so frightened! A: I wonder how they got lost and whose fault it was. B: They may have been separated from the other students and couldn't hear anyone when the thunder started, or they might have fallen behind and taken the wrong path. A: Maybe. Or they could have gone exploring on their own and lost their way back to the group. B: I hate to think how they must be feeling right now. It's so cold at the moment. They must be freezing! I hope they have warm jackets made of wool. A: They might be sheltering in a cave. B: Or they could be in one of those empty cottages near the pine trees right at the top of the mountain. A: They can't be there. People would have looked there first, I'm sure. B: True. Imagine how hungry they are! They can't exactly eat seeds like squirrels and sparrows do! A: They might have some food left from camping but they may not have any water. B: And one of them might be bleeding or have a broken arm or leg. I really hope someone finds them soon. A: Me too. Their parents must be very worried. It'll be a real relief when they're found. |
