[00:00.19]Speaking:
[00:02.04]Exercise 3 Listen to three people
[00:05.83]on a survival¹ course.Which of the problems
[00:08.76]in Exercise 2 are mentioned?
[00:12.88]OK, so here we are. It's freezing.
[00:16.20]It's not what you'd call tropical².
[00:18.01]I think we should start getting a shelter built
[00:20.43]Let's start, shall we?
[00:22.04]Mmm... that's a good idea.
[00:23.83]Surely, it'd be better to explore a bit?
[00:25.86]Find the best place, you know?
[00:27.58]OK, let's do that.
[00:30.18]My feet are blocks of ice.
[00:31.64]Mine are a bit cold and I'm dying³
[00:33.65]for a cup of coffee.
[00:34.79]I wouldn't mind one! A nice warm coffee.
[00:38.06]Mmm... What about making it here?
[00:49.39]There are a few stones around to make walls.
[00:51.41]There are millions!
[00:52.69]We could build the shelter next to this rock.
[00:54.64]It's huge.
[00:55.88]It's quite big,but I don't see why
[00:57.58]we have to build it near here.
[00:59.39]Don't you think it would be better
[01:00.42]near the stream?
[01:01.20]How come?
[01:02.69]To get water you know.
[01:04.60]It would take ages to get water from here.
[01:06.81]It would take a while.
[01:08.49]But we've got a water bottle, haven't we?
[01:10.43]Actually, I think it would be better here.
[01:12.75]It's quite muddy near the stream.
[01:14.39]You're telling me.
[01:15.41]It's knee deep in mud...
[01:16.07]
