Question

Work in pairs. Decide if both or only one of the words in italics is possible.

Answer

  1. It’s very popular with birdwatchers because it’s at the mouth of a river / some dunes and there’s a lot of wetland / craters that attract birds.
  2. There’s a very narrow / steep ridge leading up to the main peak and the views are breathtaking / stunning – if you’re not too scared to look down!
  3. We sometimes gather mushrooms in the woodland near us, but you have to be careful not to stray from / stick to the paths as it’s so thick / dense you can easily get lost.
  4. It’s miles from civilisation, really. You just drive along these dirt roads / tracks across these huge flat / rolling plains. And it’s all pretty lush / barren – just brown grassland.
  5. It’s a mecca for climbers because there are these amazing sheer / jagged cliffs on either side of the valley / gorge. I saw quite a few people climbing without ropes. They must be nuts.
  6. The road winds along the coastal cliffs and there are these little coves where you can scramble down to sandy / rocky beaches and have a dip. The water’s amazing – crystal clear / very murky.
