1. Fill in the gaps with the correct (Past) form of verbs in the brackets.

Last night I _________________ (walk) home next to the river Thames, when something strange
_________________ (happen) to me. It was late at night and I _________________ (have) a long and difficult
day at work. There was a large full moon in the sky and everything was quiet. I was tired and lonely and
I _________________ (just / have) a few pints of beer in my local pub, so I decided to stop by the riverside
and look at the moon for a while.

I _________________ (sit) on some steps very close to the water’s edge and looked up at the big yellow
moon and wondered if it really was made of cheese. I felt very tired so I _________________ (close) my
eyes and after a few minutes, I _________________ (fall) asleep. When I woke up, the moon
_________________ (move) behind a cloud and it was very dark and cold. The wind _________________
(blow) and an owl _________________ (hoot) in a tree above me. I rubbed my eyes and started to get up,
when suddenly I _________________ (hear) a splash. I _________________ (look) down at the water and saw
something. Something terrible and frightening, and unlike anything I’d ever seen before. Something
_________________ (come) out of the water and _________________ (move) towards me. Something green
and strange and ugly. It was a long green arm and it _________________ (stretch) out from the water to
grab my leg. I was so scared that I couldn’t move. I _________________ (never / be) so scared in my whole
life. The cold green hand _________________ (move) closer and closer when suddenly there was a blue
flash and a strange noise from behind me. Someone _________________ (jump) onto the stairs next to
me. He _________________ (wear) strange clothes and he had a crazy look in his eyes. He shouted “Get
Back!” and _________________ (point) something at the monster in the water. There was a bright flash
and the monster hissed and disappeared.

I looked up at the man. He looked strange, but kind. “Don’t fall asleep by the river when there’s a full
moon”, he said “The Moon Goblins will get you.” I _________________ (never hear) of moon goblins
before. I didn’t know what to do. “Who… who are you?” I asked him. “You can call me… The Doctor.”
He said. I _________________ (try) to think of something else to say when he turned around and said,
“Watch the stars at night, and be careful of the full moon”. I was trying to understand what he meant,
when there was another blue flash and I closed my eyes. When I opened them again, he
_________________ (go).

I couldn’t believe what _________________(happen). What on earth were Moon Goblins, and who was the
mysterious Doctor? And why had he saved me? I was determined to find the answers to these strange
questions. I stood up, looked at the moon and quickly walked home.
