Episode Synopsis "Pratice Your Listening - A walking in the forest - #02"

"It’s cold today, so Benji and I are walking fast. As we go through the forest, it starts raining so I run. Suddenly, I fall and I’m on my back. OUCH! That hurt! Then there’s someone there and a voice asks 'Are you all right?' I look up and see the boy from yesterday. 'I’m OK,' I say and the boy helps me up. 'I haven’t seen you at school. Do you live near here?' I ask. 'No, I’m from Manchester,' he says. 'Sorry! I have to go. Can you walk? Do you need help?' 'No, I’m fine. Thanks!' I say and the boy walks away. 'I’m Grace,' I call. 'What’s your name?' but he’s already gone. At home, Mum’s watching the news. 'Hi Grace. Do you know about this boy, Mark?' she asks. 'No, what boy?' I say. 'A boy from Manchester. He’s run away from home. Look! This is his dad.' There’s a man on TV sitting with a policeman. He’s crying as the policeman asks people to help. Then they show a photo of the missing boy. It’s the boy from the forest. He’s Mark. Should I say something? 'Poor man,' says Mum. 'I just hope they find his son soon.' No, I mustn’t say anything. If I tell Mum, the police will come and find Mark. What if he’s run away for a good reason? I should talk to him first."
