Exercise 22b Now listen to how the story ended.
Narrator
Alec killed Jim because he wanted all the money. Then he went out in the boat and dropped the body into the sea. Then he made a hole in the bottom and swam back. Then Alec went to America.
Strange voice
No, that’s impossible. He couldn’t do that. There was a terrible storm that night.
Narrator
Hmm, that’s true. Wait a minute! I know what happened. Both men went out in the boat and it sank.
Strange voice
Yes, but what happened to the gold?
Narrator
Maybe it’s still at the bottom of the sea.
Strange voice
Maybe, maybe. You don’t know how the story ended!
Narrator
Of course I don’t! Did I say I did? Nobody knows what happened to the two men and to the gold.
