Question

Listen to someone describing a childhood memory. What is it about? What feelings does the speaker mention and why did he feel that way?

Answer

  • He was moving house, and they arrived at the new flat in the dark. He ran around the rooms with a torch.
  • He felt excited about the idea of living in a flat in the dark; he was disappointed when the power came on the next day and he realized what he'd imagined wouldn't happen.
