Listening

9. You are going to hear five different people speaking. Choose the right word
to complete the sentences.

Speaker 1
Last year Dad bought an old wooden house on the beach. We all like being by the
sea, so it’s perfect for us. We go swimming and diving and spend time with the other
families. My best friend joined us this year and she really enjoyed herself because
she likes watersports too.

Speaker 2
When I was in primary school we had to do a project on royal families around the
world so I wrote to the Queen at Buckingham Palace. I didn’t really think I’d get a
reply but I did get a letter back thanking me for my questions. Sadly, I didn’t keep the
envelope but the letter is one of my favourite things.
Speaker 3
A new family have just moved in next door. The two boys are the same age as me
and my brother so we’ll probably see them at school but I don’t know anything about
their parents. Mum and Dad want to invite them all over to welcome them to the
neighbourhood, so I guess we’ll have to be around too!

Speaker 4
Dad’s got loads of music so he’s always listening to something. I like a lot of the
same stuff that he likes, you know, rock and blues and stuff like that, but I’m really not
into classical, although he’s trying to educate me! He’s even got tickets for a concert
next week.

Speaker 5
As a surprise for my birthday, Mum took me to London for a long weekend. We

Amanda’s travel blog

Here I am with my family on day three of our two-week stay in Bali. We’re staying in a
small hostel in Ubud, which is famous for its monkey forest. The monkeys are
everywhere and they don’t seem to be afraid of the tourists. While we were walking
through the forest yesterday, one of them tried to grab my camera but luckily it didn’t
succeed! Other tourists weren’t quite so lucky though.

Tomorrow we’re meeting up with some other backpackers and we’re climbing the
volcano that is near here. We’ve found a local guide who will take us up and although
it’s very hot in the town, he says it will be very cold at the top of the volcano. I hope I’ll
be OK as I didn’t bring any warm clothes with me.

We’re spending next week in Kuta, relaxing by the sea. The beaches here are
fantastic and lots of people come here to go surfing. I’ve never tried it before but I’ll
probably have a go if I feel brave.

This is such a beautiful island and the people are so friendly. I know I’ll be sad to
leave but I’m sure I’ll come back again one day as there are so many other places to
explore.
