Read and listen to the story below three times.
Simone went to the mountains and walked along the lake that was there. She saw two boys fishing and asked them their names. The tallest one said his name was, "Matthew" and the other responded, "James". "Well", she said to Matthew, "What kind of fish have you caught?" He shrugged his shoulder, because he did not know. James too remained quiet. After a little pause, Simone interrupted by asking them, Where are you from? This time both boys answered, "Allentown, Pennsylvania". "Really", she said. "Why are you here alone and where are your parents?" The boys answered nothing. She proceeds to say, "Anyway, I will be on my way, but when will the two of you take the fishes you caught home?" "Soon", they replied, as she began to walk away.
