LinguaThe lost-and-found desk
Read the passage, then listen to it. Answer ten questions about what you read or heard. You can return to the passage while answering.
“I can't find my bag,” says Anna. “My book, phone and wallet are in it.”
At the lost-and-found desk, a man has a big box. “Is this yours?” he asks. “This is a blue bag.”
“No. Mine is red. That blue bag is my sister's. The blue jacket is hers, too.”
“Whose keys are these?”
“They're my brother's keys. His key has a small apple on it. Those headphones are his, too.”
On a chair: two books and three watches. Under the chair: an umbrella. On the desk: a watch, a cup, a pen and a notebook. Two men and their children are here. One child has a ticket.
“Are these glasses yours?” Anna asks the children.
“No. Our glasses aren't lost. They're in our bags. This umbrella is ours.”
The men point at their children. “These books are theirs. And that phone is mine,” says one man.
Anna looks in the box. “My red bag! And this is my wallet. Thank you!”
“Your phone?”
“It's in my jacket! The lost phone on the desk isn't mine.”
