I went to the beach a couple of weeks ago with my friends. We played some games like volleyball and Frisbee, and sometimes (1) took a dip in the sea to (2) cool off. We (3) soaked up the rays on some sun-loungers, and we all got very nice (4) suntans except one of my friends who got (5) sunburnt on his back and his shoulders. I think he forgot to put on (6) suntan lotion again after one of our (7) dips in the sea.
It was (8) scorching hot around lunchtime – almost 37°C – and we (9) sweated buckets playing volleyball. Luckily we had a big cooler box full of cold drinks and fresh fruit, so we had many things to help us (10) cool off. There was also an ice cream shop opposite the beach, which was very convenient!
By mid afternoon the temperature was down to about 30°C, and there was a nice cool (11) breeze too. We packed up our things at about 4pm and went to a lovely cafe for a late lunch and an ice cold drink.
The average temperature has been about 35°C this summer, but I heard there is a (12) heat wave coming next week and it’ll be around 40°C! Please take care and drink lots of water.
How did you do? Did you get all 12 correct?
