Question

Listen to five people answering one of the questions. Which question does the speaker answer? What reasons and examples do they give?

Answer

  • Speaker 1: What scares you? - when you find a big spider in the bath, sometimes gets someone else to go in the room before her if she thinks there's a spider there.
  • Speaker 2: What makes you giggle? - if she's not had much sleep, in a serious situation, now.
  • Speaker 3: What makes you feel stressed? - he always tries to get somewhere half an hour early, he can't deal with being late.
  • Speaker 4: What makes you happy? - seeing his boy when he gets home, his laugh.
  • Speaker 5: What makes you depressed? - there doesn't seem to be a solution, nobody wants those things to exist but they do, as soon as we've cured an illness, another pops up, we're stuck with those things.
