Unit 8

Listening

A  Students from Rosie Bridge School are putting on a play for English Week. Listen to the first part of the play. Who said the following lines? Fill in the blanks with the correct names from the box. 

Robin Hood: I’m Robin Hood and I live in the forest with my Merry Men. We take from the rich and give to the poor!

Little John: I’m Little John, one of Robin Hood’s Merry Men. People call me Little John but I’m the largest and strongest of the Merry Men!

B  Listen to the second part of the play. Write one word in each blank.

Little John: How did we do this week, Robin?

Robin Hood: We’ve got a little money, but we’ll need more to give to the poor. 

Little John: What should we do?

Robin Hood: We’d better find a rich traveller and take his gold!

Little John: Look out! Here come two men!

Robin Hood: We should take this chance. 

Friend: Is it safe here in the forest?

Rich man: Of course it is. I’m a friend of the king—nobody would attack me!

Friend: Not even Robin Hood?

Rich man: I could fight him with my eyes closed!

Friend: Well, I hope you’re right. Those men over there look dangerous. 

Rich man: Don’t worry. I think they’re tourists. 

Robin Hood: I’m Robin Hood. Give me your gold!
