Today Melissa Livingstone is a popular actress and star of the TV soap opera 'Round the Corner'. But as a child she was very unhappy. She didn't do well at school, and she never went to college. Her greatest pleasure was going to the (cinema). Her family lived in an unattractive town and their home was next to the (station). Melissa's father, Tom, was a sailor, and he spent months at sea. He was hardly ever at home and when he was, he didn't do very much. Sometimes he spent all day in bed. Melissa's mother, Susan, had to get up at five o'clock every day to go to work. When Tom lost his job he stole a gold cup from the church) Susan used to go to. He had to go to prison for a year. Melissa's mother was horrified at the shame he had brought on the family.
(1) the (meals) we had weren't very good. We had (2) breakfast in the hotel, and that wasn't too bad. We usually went out for (3) lunch because (4) the (lunch) they served in the hotel was always the same. And (5) the (dinner) we had at the hotel on our first evening was pretty awful, so we tried a few restaurants. On our last evening we had (6) a (marvelous meal) in (7) a Chinese restaurant. I wish we'd discovered (8) the place a bit sooner.

The r̲i̲c̲h̲ are always happier that the p̲o̲o̲r̲

If you're a real friend, you won't l̲e̲t̲ me down

I really w̲i̲s̲h̲ to be s̲u̲r̲p̲r̲i̲s̲e̲d̲ on my Birthday!

Don't pretend to be a f̲o̲o̲l̲

She s̲h̲o̲u̲t̲s̲ as loudly as a raven does

C̲a̲l̲m̲ down and listen to me

The man was s̲w̲i̲m̲i̲n̲g̲ ̲a̲w̲a̲y̲ from a shark

I hoped Santa Claus would g̲r̲a̲n̲t̲ my w̲i̲s̲h̲

The D̲a̲r̲k̲ ̲l̲a̲n̲d̲ is really s̲t̲o̲r̲m̲y̲

There are  lots of c̲l̲o̲u̲d̲s̲ on the s̲k̲y̲

Now it's your t̲u̲r̲n̲ to t̲u̲r̲n̲ the lever : )
