Tema 4.2: Reading. So, neither, too, and either with simple present action verbs.
Listen to the audio and answer and read the text:
Following John's advice, they entered the inscription into the app and watched in amazement as Google Translate immediately detected that the text was in Latin. The translation he provided shed light on the mystery of the box:
"Within me you will find a sacred place;
Where only the high priest can enter, this is demonstrated.
My curtains and walls are protected by fire;
The Holy of Holies, where the Lord dwells. Who am I?"
The words echoed through the room, filling the air with an aura of mystery and meaning. Immediately, the friends began discussing possible interpretations of the inscription. Expressions like “holy place,” “high priest,” and “my curtains and walls are fortified with heat” brought his thoughts to one place in particular: the tabernacle.
"Let's try typing 'tabernacle' on the keyboard," John suggested, hope in his voice.
In anticipation, one of the friends tried to type the word on the box's keyboard, but nothing happened. Elena, remembering that the inscription was in Latin, proposed writing "tabernacle."
However, the result was the same: the box remained closed, defying her attempts to reveal its contents.
At that moment, Elena's little son, who had been watching curiously, came over and sat on his mother's lap. Curiosity shone in his eyes as his small hands explored the box's keyboard.
Without hesitation, the boy pressed the only button without a letter on the keyboard, and a soft click echoed through the room as the box opened slightly.
With a quick gesture, John opened the box completely, and everyone held their breath as they saw its contents: carefully preserved rolls of parchment, covered with inscriptions in different languages and what appeared to be significant dates.
Cautiously, John put on gloves and began to unroll the scrolls, revealing ancient writings and symbols that defied his understanding.
Excitement and intrigue filled the room as the friends discussed what to do with their discovery. Some suggested calling an expert to analyze the scrolls, while others proposed keeping the find a secret and studying it themselves.
It was Ariday, one of the friends on the excursion, who proposed a solution: "Let's take the chest and the scrolls, we will meet every Sunday to investigate further and we will keep everything in a safe place."
"Good point, Ariday!" John exclaimed, nodding approvingly. "I agree. And I know the perfect place to keep our finds safe," Elena added, determination in her voice.
Mark, who had also participated in the excursion, took Ariday's hand with a smile and led her out of Elena's house, as the group prepared to begin their exciting Sunday investigation into the mysterious scrolls.
