Around London

Narrator: Mr. Beagles invites Anna, George and Erica to go on a

boat trip on the river Thames.

Mr. B.: Now children, let’s go on a boat trip along the Thames
river. There are important buildings that you can see.
Erica: National monuments?
Mr. B.: Yes, indeed, some of them. On your right you can see the
London Eye, a giant wheel. You can see London. I plan to visit it
with you, but not today, tomorrow.
Erica: Wow! It’s fabulous!
Mr. B.: I am glad you like it!

Anna: The visit to the London eye is planned for……

• today
• next week
• tomorrow

Mr. B.: Children, we are now passing under the London Bridge, but
pay attention the next bridge is the Tower Bridge
Erica: The Tower Bridge is so tall!
George: Shhh! Stop interrupting Mr. B.!
Mr. B.: Erica is right; a tower is a very tall building. And bridges
cross rivers. On our left there is the Tower of London.
