Worksheet 1.3 Reading and writing

1 Match the pictures to the different parts of this story.

a Then he was really in trouble. A pilot saw Larry as he was drifting into the airspace of Los

Angeles International Airport. He radioed the airport and said he was passing a guy in a gardenchair with a gun 4,000 metres above ground. Night was coming and a breeze was blowing

Larry out to sea while a helicopter was following him.

b Larry tied two balloons to his garden chair and filled them with the gas. He was filling the

balloons when he noticed that the chair was a metre above ground, so he climbed on the chair

to test it. It worked! Smiling to himself, Larry packed some sandwiches and his air gun. He

thought that when it was time to descend he could burst some balloons.

c Larry Waters of Los Angeles only had one dream he wanted to fly. Unfortunately, he

didnt get into the Air Force. So, day after day, Larry watched aeroplanes fly over his house.

Then one day, while he was watching the sky, Larry had an idea. He went to a shop and bought

forty-five weather balloons and some helium.d The police were waiting for Larry when he landed. As they were leading him away, Larry

said to reporters: A man cant just sit around.

e So, he cut the rope that kept the balloons down. He found himself shooting up into the

sky very, very quickly! The floating garden chair was climbing higher and higher. Larry was

nervous. He was thinking about shooting the balloons, but he didnt want to come down as

quickly as he went up!

f It was difficult to rescue Larry because every time they got near to him, the wind from the

helicopter blew Larry away. Eventually, he caught a rope and slowly came down to Earth.

2 Now put the story in the correct order.First Second Third Fourth Fifth Sixth

3 Write true (T) or false (F). Correct the false sentences.Larry never wanted to fly.

a He got his idea while he was looking at aeroplanes.

b The chair went up faster than Larry expected.

c Larry was never worried about his situation.

d The wind made Larry and his balloons fly towards the sea. e A helicopter rescued Larry.

f The police were happy about Larry.
