Where are you going? Hi, Emma. I’m going climbing. Climbing? I thought you were afraid of heights! Not any more! I went climbing on Ben Nevis in Scotland during the summer holiday. I was really nervous at first. But in the end, I had a wonderful time. Ben Nevis? That’s the highest mountain in the UK! Yes, it is. It’s 1,345 metres high. I climbed all the way to the top! It was amazing. Who were you with? My uncle. He lives in Inverness in Scotland and I stayed with him for two weeks in July. He goes climbing every weekend. He even climbs in the winter, on days when there isn’t any snow. What was the weather like when you were there? It was quite warm in Inverness. But it was cool in the mountains. It was perfect weather for climbing. So, are you going to the mountains now? Don’t be silly! The closest mountains are two hours away. I’m going to the climbing wall at the sports centre. What about you, Emma? Where are you going? I’m going to meet some friends. I met them during the holidays while my cousin and I were volunteering for the city. What kind of volunteer work did you do? We helped to clean up the park. We picked up rubbish and planted trees in the rain – not as exciting as your holiday, right? I think that’s great! It’s more important than climbing mountains. Well, have a good time with your friends, Emma. Thanks, Ray. Enjoy your climb. 1. climbing 2. uncle 3. cool Page 4 2 1. nervous 2. highest mountain 3.
