I. Read the text and do the tasks:

Mr. Lewis, who lived in a very quiet place, was on his way home from the railway station. It was very late, and he was alone on the dark road. Suddenly he heard a strange noise behind him. He realized somebody was there and he had an unpleasant feeling that the man was following him. He began to walk faster. The man behind him walked faster too. He walked slower, and the man moved slower too. He started running, but the man ran after him. Now Mr. Lewis was absolutely sure the man was following him and he was reallyfrightened.

There was a wall on one side of the road, and he quickly climbed up on it and jumped down on the other side of the wall. Mr. Lewis thought, “If he passes and doesn’t stop, everything will be all right”. But the man didn’t pass. He climbed up on the wall and jumped down, just as Mr. Lewis was scared. His only thought was “I’m in danger!” Then he thought, “If he thinks I am a coward, I’ll soon show him that he is making a mistake!” And he stopped up and shouted, “What do you want? Why are you following me?” The other man was so tired that at first it was difficult for him to speak. “I didn’t know that you are such an athlete”, he said at last. “I have to go to Mr. Stradlater’s house, but I don’t know the way. A man at the station told me that you live across the street from Mr.Stradlater, and he told me to follow you. Please, tell me how long will it take us to get there? I don’t think I can go much farther”.
