| Announcement 3: |
Complete the summaries of the three announcements.
| Announcement 1: | A train will leave later than scheduled. 1 |
| Announcement 2: | Constantly supervise your luggage. 2 |
| Announcement 3: | A train is accepting passengers. 3 |
1 A train will leave later than scheduled.: This is correct. The announcer says that the train from London to Paris is "delayed due to water on the tracks". This water has come from a leak (or small hole) in the Channel Tunnel. The train will now leave at the later time of 20.15.
1 A train has been cancelled.: This is incorrect. There is no mention of a train being cancelled.
1 A train will take an alternative route.: This is incorrect. There is no mention of a train being diverted or taking an alternative route.
2 Constantly supervise your luggage.: This is correct. The announcement says "We strongly advise you to keep your luggage with you at all times. Any unattended luggage in the departure lounge will be removed by the security services." If (a bag) is left "unattended", then (a bag) is left on its own, not supervised or watched over (by its owner).
2 Only one item of carry-on luggage per person.: This is incorrect. There is no mention of "carry-on luggage". "Carry-on luggage" is hand baggage that passengers keep with them while on a train or plane.
2 Make sure your name is clearly marked on your luggage.: This is incorrect, there is no mention of "labeling" luggage. To "label" luggage is to attach names to passengers' belongings.
3 A train is accepting passengers.: This is correct. The announcer says that the "Train number 98756 to Paris Gare de Nord is now boarding". "To board" (a train) is to "get on" (a train). If a train "is boarding", it is accepting passengers.
3 A bus will replace a train for part of the journey.: This is incorrect. There is no mention of buses. A coach is a long-distance bus, but in the context of the announcement, a coach = a car in the train.
3 Two trains are now ready to depart.: This is incorrect. There is only one train. Passengers are asked to go to one of two gates depending on which coach (or car) of the train they are sitting in.

"To wake up" is to end one's sleep, and presumably "get up". This expression isn't synonymous with "to get in", which means to arrive by plane (in this context).
To board (a plane) is to "get on" a plane. The expressions "to get in" and "to get on" are not synonymous.
"I got in" means "I arrived", and usually refers to an arrival by plane. Maria has "just" or "recently" arrived in San Francisco by plane.
"To speak to or with someone" is not synonymous with the expression "to get in".

1 ransom: "Ransom" is the right answer. A "ransom" is an amount of money demanded (under threat) as payment for the release of a captured person. Here's another example: "The businessman paid the £4 million ransom for his son, but his captors killed him anyway. You can't trust criminals".
2 encircled: "Encircled" is the correct answer. Other useful synonyms for to "encircle" include "hem in" or in this context "cordon off". Some difficult phrasal verbs today! For example, "The police encircled the area. There was a suspicious package, so they called the bomb squad."
3 loudspeaker: "Loudspeaker" is the correct term here. A loudspeaker is a device that transforms a voice or electrical signals into loud sounds. It increases the volume and is useful when talking to a large group of people, for example at a demonstration or march.
4 rescue: "Rescue" is the right answer. To "rescue" means to "save" or to "recover from danger". Another example of this is: "After surviving three weeks on the side of the glacier by eating his fingers and toes, a helicopter finally came to rescue him."
5 injured: "Injured" is the term we were looking for. To "injure" here means to "hurt" or "cause bodily harm". It is used in the adjective form in the dialogue. The noun is "injury". (Don't forget it becomes "injuries" in the plural). You now know everything about this word!
