Listening 2nd semester

WENDY's school is in a small town on the coast.

One of the problems they've been having because of tourism in their town is all the litter that gets left on the beaches.

All litter is left by tourists there.

Once a week during the spring they organized themselves into work parties and cleaned the beaches.

TONY is a member of citizenship classes who visit elderly people in the community, who have difficulty doing things for themselves.

They go to the shops and help out in the house and garden.

Sometimes they just have a chat with elderly people.

Tony thinks that it's important for different generations to look out for each other.

ALEX is a volunteer with the local mountain rescue service.

Alex is sure that the mountains are quite a wild and safe place.

Visitors receive instructions on first aid and how to use maps and compasses.

Last summer Alex helped to find a walker who had fallen and broken his arm.
