A Disappointing Skiing Holiday My brother, Tim asked me 1__ on a skiing holiday with him last January, but I’ve never been keen on getting wet and cold, so I said no at first. Tim asked me again and again and kept on finding good reasons why I should go. Eventually, after a few weeks I agreed, because he said that I 0__ take up a sport and get fit. I must admit I’m not the sportiest of people! I told my brother that I 0___ it, but I wasn’t very excited about the idea. Anyway, the journey to the mountains went well, and we hired all the equipment from the hotel. When we got out on the slopes with our skis and goggles on, everything seemed to be fine. However, when the instructor asked us if we 0___ a step forward, I fell flat on my nose! After this had happened five times, I gave up and went to have a hot chocolate. I knew it had been a bad idea from the beginning!
