T projects some questions: -What happened to the kangaroo? -Was the man able to get away with the money? -What happened to the woman's house? There will be options a) and b) for each one. Ss will see the questions and the options before the task. T presents a listening task about urban legends. Ss answer the questions.
T projects some sentences gathered from the listening: -It turned out that the accident hadn't killed the animal. -A man had been searching for a special cigar. -The man had been smoking them throughout the month. -A woman had been trying to get rid of the bugs in her home for years. -Unfortunately, she hadn't read the instructions. -The insurance company told the police what had happened. T asks, " Which of these are past perfect simple, and which are past perfect continuous?" Ss place them depending on where they belong to.
