– The Lion –
Part 2
I have once dwelt the savannahs of Africa in total freedom, before they catch and take me away to a limited space. As a young lion, I was enjoy a chase after a grasshopper, when I suddenly have realized I had wander too far from my mother. I cryed and cryed but nothing seems to work. I don’t had any siblings, so my mother were probably looking for me. I runned as fast as I did can. While I was run, I was think that maybe I was run in the wrong direction, so I did stop. It be too late. I suddenly fell that they was watching me. I have run too far and there is no way back. I didn’t cried or tried running away anymore. I just sitted on the ground and wait. Then the thing hitted me on my thigh. I had had this experience twice in my life now, I did just imagine what it would be like if I hadn’t give up.
Now, discuss these questions with a partner:
Where was the lion in the beginning of the story? Did he enjoy this situation?
Do you enjoy visiting zoos? When was the last time you went to one?
What do you think they were doing to the lion?
How did the lion describe his life in Africa? What do you think he prefers?
Would you stop running as the little lion did? Explain.
Now, listen to the third part of the story and complete it with the missing verbs in the correct tense. (You'll have to download the audio to your computer)

Part 3
I __________ again. I __________ no recollection of what _____ just __________. I __________ my eyes slowly and then I noticed I __________ in a familiar place. It _______________ exactly as the place I _______________ before, when I __________ just a cub, but it __________ especially different. There __________ still a fence behind me. A whole lot of different people _______________ me though. These people __________ older and they __________ a different expression and emotion from that of the kids’. I __________ that they _______________ something to me. I __________, still a bit dizzy. I __________ a look around and there __________ no fences ahead of me. I __________ like crying, but it __________ all different now – I _______________ set free. I _______________ and run and I’m still running all the time. Because I _____ finally __________: never stop running, no matter what.
Now, listen to the song and correct the mistakes in the lyrics:

I had the branches of it looking at me ____________
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've seen dreaming of? ____________
Oh simple thing, where have you done? ____________
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This should be the end of everything, ____________
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?
Somewhere only we know?
Oh simple thing, where have you done? ____________
