Using Language THE STORY OF THE DRUNKEN CHICKENS Listen to Part 1. Listen again and fill in the blanks. Mary Smith looked at the beautiful ripe plums. They would make lovely jam. When she had finished the cooking, she filled all her empty jam jars and left the rest of the jam in the pan. She would put it in the fridge when it was cooler. But just then the telephone rang, her mother was in hospital after a car accident. Mary picked up her bag and ran out of the house. Some days later, her husband, John, came home from a business trip. He had been travelling all day and felt like having a drink and a piece of cake. As he came into the kitchen he saw a pan with a dark red mess inside it. He lifted it up and smelled it. It smelled bad. Mary must have forgotten to clean this pan, he thought. So he poured all the jam into the chicken yard and cleaned the pan. Then feeling comfortable, he began to eat a piece of cake. Listen to Part 2. Listen again and fill in the blanks. When Mary returned, she noticed the chickens behaving strangely. They were running round the yard as if they were sick. She saw the dark red mess on the ground and went closer. When she saw a plum stone she went into the kitchen. Her husband was reading a newspaper at the table. Angrily Mary rushed up to him. “You threw away my jam,” she shouted. “Oh, that’s what it was,” he said. “I’m sorry but I thought it was porridge which had gone bad in the hot weather.” “Good heavens!” said Mary. “That must be the jam I left in the pan, but why didn’t you throw it in the dustbin?” John laughed. “It was a mistake. However, the chickens have enjoyed the jam, expect that it has made them drunk. What are we going to do with these drunken chickens?”

Workbook-Listening WHO’S TAKEN MY SHIRT?

Listen again and fill in the blanks. Long ago there lived a poor couple, Peter and his wife. One day a friend gave them some potatoes and they put them on the floor. At midnight a thief broke into their house. It was very dark. The wife heard a noise and whispered, “Peter … Peter …

Wake up. There’s a thief in our house.”

Peter was clever. Thinking that the thief might have a knife, he did not want to make him angry. So he said, “Be quiet! It must be a mice. There’s no thief.” So his wife went back to sleep.

The thief found the potatoes on the floor. Having no bag to carry them, he took off his shirt and spread it on the floor. As he was picking up the potatoes to put them on his shirt, Peter quietly took the shirt away and hid it under the bed. He did not want to lose his potatoes. The thief did not know his shirt had gone, so he put the potatoes on what he thought was his shirt. However, when he tried to pick them up he could not do so. As he was looking for his shirt, Peter’s wife woke up again and shouted, “Peter. There IS a thief in our house.” Peter became very angry. He shouted, “I’ve told you

there’s no thief in our house.” Hearing this, the thief became very angry too. “Who says there’s no thief?” he said. “If there’s no thief in this house, then, who’s taken my shirt?”

Workbook-Listening Task WHO SHOULD OWN THE DOG? Listen again and fill in the blanks. One day a teacher was walking along the road. It was a lovely sunny day. The sky was blue and the birds were singing in the trees. The teacher felt happy until he saw five boys, standing around a thin and hungry dog. It looked very frightened and the teacher felt sorry for it. So he asked the boys what they were doing with the dog.

“Oh,” said one of the boys. “We were just deciding who should take the dog home and look after it. We all want it for a pet but only one of us can have it.” The teacher asked how they were going to choose the owner of the dog. “Well,” said another boy. “We’ve decided that the one who told the biggest lie should have him.” At this the teacher became very angry. He began to talk to the boys about truth and honesty. He continued for ten minutes while the boys listened carefully. Then he ended by saying, “And I never told a lie when I was your age.” There was a long silence as the boys looked at the teacher and then at each other. They seemed to agree with what he had said. The teacher was glad that his words had impressed the boys. Then the first boy spoke again. “After what we heard, we think you should have the dog!”
