Mr. Day was a teacher at a school in a big city in the north of England. He usually went to
France or Germany for a few weeks during his summer holidays, and he spoke French and
German quite well.
But one year Mr. Day said to one of his friends, “I’m going to have a holiday in Athens.
But I don’t speak Greek, so I’ll go to evening classes and have Greek lessons for a month
before I go.”
He studied very hard for a month, and then ___10___holidays began and he went to
Greece.
When he came back a few weeks later, his friend said to him, “Did you have any trouble
with your Greek when you were in Athens, Dick?”
“No, I didn’t have any trouble with it,” answered Mr. Day. “But the Greeks did!”

Hiking here is not hard and you can also get help from the indigenous population, as they
organize tour guides in exchange for a small sum of money. If you are on your own however,
try to reserve at least four days for this fantastic journey, as there are plenty of things to see
and enjoy up there. Mount Roraima is said to have some of _____________________ hiking trails in
the world.
You should not leave after 2 p.m. from the village as trekkers are no longer allowed after this
hour. At the beginning of your climb, your baggages will be strictly checked and you can not
take more than 15 kilos with you. So careful how you organize things. Being given that this
is a national park , you are not permitted to take rocks or plants along the way.
The top of the mountain measures 2772m, it offers amazing landscapes and establishing a
tent around here is possible. However, you should know the weather changes suddenly in
this area so be prepared.
