--- Lesson 81 Escape |
| [00:05.920] |
--- First listen and then answer the question. |
| [00:12.160] |
--- Why did the prisoner attack the driver? |
| [00:17.960] |
When he had killed the guard, the prisoner of war quickly dragged him into the bushes. |
| [00:25.960] |
Working rapidly in the darkness, he soon changed into the dead man's clothes. |
| [00:33.320] |
Now, dressed in a blue uniform and with a rifle over his shoulder, |
| [00:38.840] |
the prisoner marched boldly up and down in front of the camp. |
| [00:44.880] |
He could hear shouting in the camp itself. |
| [00:48.160] |
Lights were blazing and men were running here and there: they had just discovered that a prisoner had escaped. |
| [00:57.560] |
At that moment, a large black car with four officers inside it, stopped at the camp gates. |
| [01:07.720] |
The officers got out and the prisoner stood to attention and saluted as they passed. |
| [01:15.600] |
When they had gone, the driver of the car came towards him. |
| [01:21.600] |
The man obviously wanted to talk. |
| [01:25.440] |
He was rather elderly with grey hair and clear blue eyes. |
| [01:31.640] |
The prisoner felt sorry for him, but there was nothing else he could do. |
| [01:38.000] |
As the man came near, the prisoner knocked him to the ground with a sharp blow. |
| [01:44.200] |
Then, jumping into the car, he drove off as quickly as he could. |
| [01:50.920] |
