TEXT• Police are looking for someone known only
as Sandy. On Friday morning a man walked into a New York bank. He was wearing a black jacket and cap. Customers who saw him said he had a thin face and he looked about twenty. The man said he had a gun and demanded money. As he was running out, the alarm went off and surprised him and his cap fell off. Inside his cap, the name ‘Sandy’ was written.

Exercise 1.A
• Read through the following text, underlining all the adjectives expressing emotions. Then, try to iden-tify the ‘sources’ or the ‘experiencers’ for each ad-jective in the spaces provided.
– Yesterday was a school holiday. Of course, it rained all day, so my kids were really bored. I wanted to do some work at home, but they interrupted me every five min-utes and just became too annoying. I am amazed and astonished that their teachers are not constantly ex-hausted. I was irritated after only one morning with them and was really worried about the afternoon. So, I gave up my work and asked the little monsters if they would be interested in a movie. They were thrilled. Unfortunately, we chose to go to a really boring film. After about twenty minutes, they stopped being ex-cited and fell asleep. I wasn’t disappointed at all.
Answers:• 1. bored kids• 2. annoying (They)• 3. astonished (I)• 4. exhausted (teachers)• 5. irritated (I)• 6. worried (I)• 7. interested (they)• 8. thrilled (they)• 9. boring (film)• 10. excited (they)• 11. disappointed (I)

-FIND YOUR PAIR-
Preparation: Teacher gives each student 2-3 cards that has an adjective written on one side.
Rule 1. Make a sentence using the word on the card.Rule 2. Find the “source” or “experiencer” of their word using their own sentences.Rule 3. Walk around the classroom. Say the sentence using the word on the card.Rule 4. When you find the partner, come to the teacher and say the sen-tences in front of the teacher. When their sentences are incorrect, they have to correct it. When their sentences are correct, return the card to the teacher.Rule 5. Whoever found the pair and turned in all the cards to the teacher, wins.
