2. Listen and read. At the lunch break the girls met Sam and his friend, Tim. “It’s great!” Sam’s about the new football pitch,” said Julie. “Yes,” replied Sam. “But where are the workmen? We saw them this morning,” answered Julie. They went into Upton Wood. “That’s strange,” said Sam. “Why did they go there?” asked Tim. “Let’s go and find them!” said Sam. The children went to the end of the school grounds. The workmen weren’t there. Then the children went into the wood. They heard the workmen’s voices and hid behind some trees. “What are they doing?” asked Kathy. “They’re measuring the ground,” said Sam, “and marking the trees with red crosses.” At that moment the school bell rang for afternoon lessons. “Quick, let’s go!” said Julie. The children ran back to the school grounds. “I think those workmen are making the football pitch in Upton Wood. They want to cut down the trees,” said Kathy. “That’s terrible!” said Tim. “But we need a new football pitch,” said Julie. “The old football pitch never dries out.” “OK. But we need the trees in Upton Wood too!” said Kathy. “Let’s go to the Brown’s Building Company after school and find out about the plans for Upton Wood!”

At the lunch break the girls met Sam and his friend, Tim. “It’s great!” Sam’s about the new football pitch,” said Julie. “Yes,” replied Sam. “But where are the workmen? We saw them this morning,” answered Julie. They went into Upton Wood. “That’s strange,” said Sam. “Why did they go there?” asked Tim. “Let’s go and find them!” said Sam.

Во время обеденного перерыва девочки встретили Сэма и его друга Тима. «Это здорово! Сэм говорит о новом футбольном поле», — сказала Джули. «Да», — ответил Сэм. «Но где рабочие? Мы видели их сегодня утром», — ответила Джули. Они пошли в лес Аптон. «Странно», — сказал Сэм. «Зачем они туда пошли?» — спросил Тим. «Давайте найдём их!» — сказал Сэм.

The children went to the end of the school grounds. The workmen weren’t there. Then the children went into the wood. They heard the workmen’s voices and hid behind some trees. “What are they doing?” asked Kathy. “They’re measuring the ground,” said Sam, “and marking the trees with red crosses.” At that moment the school bell rang for afternoon lessons. “Quick, let’s go!” said Julie.

Дети дошли до конца школьной территории. Рабочих там не было. Тогда дети вошли в лес. Они услышали голоса рабочих и спрятались за деревьями. «Что они делают?» — спросила Кэти. «Измеряют землю, — сказал Сэм, — и отмечают деревья красными крестами». В этот момент прозвенел звонок на послеобеденные уроки. «Быстрее, пойдём!» — сказала Джули.

The children ran back to the school grounds. “I think those workmen are making the football pitch in Upton Wood. They want to cut down the trees,” said Kathy. “That’s terrible!” said Tim. “But we need a new football pitch,” said Julie. “The old football pitch never dries out.” “OK. But we need the trees in Upton Wood too!” said Kathy. “Let’s go to the Brown’s Building Company after school and find out about the plans for Upton Wood!”

Дети побежали обратно на территорию школы. «Думаю, рабочие строят футбольное поле в лесу Аптон. Они хотят срубить деревья», — сказала Кэти. «Ужасно!» — сказал Тим. «Но нам нужно новое футбольное поле, — сказала Джули. — Старое поле никогда не просыхает». «Да, но нам также нужны деревья в лесу Аптон!» — сказала Кэти. «Давайте после уроков зайдём в строительную компанию Brown’s и узнаем о планах насчёт леса Аптон!»
