2) LISTEN AND READ
Mr.Brown is talking to some volunteer conservationists

“ I want everyone to listen carefully, please. First of all, I’ d like you
to divide into three groups. Each group should take five plastic
bags. Once you have filled a bag, come back to me as you will need
another. I need group one to walk along the shore. Group two should
check the sand, and group three has to check among the rocks. Mr.
Jones is going to collect all the bags and take them to the garbage
dump. Mr. Smith has kindly provided a picnic lunch for us, but we
won’t eat until the whole area is clean. If you can’t find your place,
I will help you get there with this map. Don’t worry . . . Uh . . . I’m
disappointed that people have spoiled this area. However, we are
here to do something about this pollution. We must all work very
hard. And, if we work hard, we’ll make this beach a clean and beautiful
place again. OK. Now, let’s get stared.”
