Could you please arrange to collect this set and deliver a new one as soon as possible? I trust this matter will receive your prompt attention.

Picture C

Tony is at home working and looking after the baby. The baby's mother, Liz, has gone to the hospital to see her aunt. The baby looks puzzled about what his dad is doing. After Tony finishes his work, he'll take Tommy to the park.

Oral Development 2 (Suggested answer)

(If ss have difficulty telling the story, the teacher can ask concept questions to help them.)

Concept questions

What were they looking forward to doing?

What was the weather like?

What did they do while on board?

Did they catch any fish?

Was it difficult for Bob to catch the big salmon? How did the weather change?

Were they able to keep the boat under control?

Could they get close to the shore? Why not? Who rescued them?

were looking forward to doing this as they had been planning the trip for weeks. They got on the boat and sailed off. The day seemed to be fine. There wasn't a cloud in the sky. After about half an hour they decided to stop and try to catch some fish. Bob started casting/to cast and, to his amazement, managed to hook a big salmon almost immediately. The fish tried to get away, and continued fighting for a long time, but then it stopped struggling and Bob landed it. It was then that they all noticed the sky clouding up. The wind began to blow and the sea became very rough. They had a difficult time keeping the boat under control, and they were afraid to get too close to the shore because the rocks appeared to be dangerous. After a long time they happened to see a coastguard boat and signalled to it. The coastguard officers helped them (to) get into the harbour. They were extremely relieved to be back on dry land, and regretted ever having set out in the first place.

157.     A valuable painting has been discovered by Mr Owen Gibbon in the attic of his house in Rochester. The work was painted by George Stubbs, the famous animal artist, in 1760. The picture was bought by Mr Gibbon's great-grandfather in the 1890's, but after his death it was stored away in the attic. The painting is being examined (by art historians) and has been valued at £500,000. The work has been offered to the National Gallery (by Mr Gibbon), where the picture will be restored to its former beauty. The restoration work will have been finished by June.

A.         The film which the public has been waiting for for so long, The Hawk, has finally been released by the Winter Production Company. It was originally going to be released by the Winter Company in August but they decided to wait until October, as it is known that fewer people go to the cinema in the summer. The Hawk was directed by Richard Able and people are being encouraged (by critics) to see it. British audiences are reported to have bought a lot of tickets so the Hawk is sure to be a success.

B.          Over the past ten years the seas surrounding Britain have been polluted by oil spills. Oil is spilled onto the coast (by tankers) and many forms of wildlife are harmed. It is said by environmentalists that a lot of volunteers are needed if the damage is to be minimised. It has been promised by the government that in future the owners of any tankers that pollute the North Sea in this way will be prosecuted. It is also hoped that such incidents can be prevented if more lighthouses are built along the coastline.
