56. Say what you would have done under the circumstances. Compare your answers and decide who in your group has the most constructive idea.
Example: 0. A few days ago I saw a man steal a mobile phone from a girl dozing on the train. I was so shocked that I couldn't move and just allowed him to leave the carriage calmly right in front of me.
Possible reaction: If it had happened to me, I would have shouted and drawn the passengers' attention to the thief.
1. The other day Daniel was at a performance. His seat was in the front row and suddenly the conjurer addressed him from the stage suggesting that Daniel could help him with his magic tricks. Daniel refused point-blank as he was afraid to look silly in front of the audience. 2. Yesterday Margo borrowed a book from the library and when she started turning over the pages, she found a one hundred dollar bill between them. Margo spent the money on a new pair of shoes she needed badly. 3. Last week when I was taking the rubbish out, I left my key in the flat. So when I came back, the door was locked and there was no one at home to open it for me. I waited on the steps for over two hours until my mother returned from work. 4. A few days ago Steven saw his girlfriend in the street walking along with some boy and laughing happily. Steven crossed the road and got lost in the crowd. He never mentioned the stranger boy to his girlfriend. 5. Last summer Jane was on board a ship travelling to Venice. Sitting on the deck she saw her favourite actress admiring the seascape. Jane wanted to talk to her but was too shy to do so.
