Dictation 1 About Books

At Christmas I often get presents, but there is one present I always like to get, and that is a book. It doesn't matter what kind of book it is. It can be a story book, a book of poems or a book of plays; I enjoy them all.

I get some of my books from the Public Library. There is a very good one in the town where I live and the librarian knows a lot about literature. He gives me advice about literature and helps me to get the books that I want. But I buy quite a lot of books too, particularly those that I have read before and have enjoyed. I like to have them in my home so that I can read them (or at least some of them) not only once, but time and again. I like to sit in the room where my books are, and, even if I am not reading, I like to look at the books on my shelves and to feel that I have my friends round me.

Dictation 2

With the first ray of light Oliver rose and unlocked the door. One timid look around,—one moment of hesitation,—he had closed it behind him, and was in the open street. He looked to the right and to the left, uncertain where to go. But he remembered that waggons, when they left the town, climbed up the hill. He did the same, and soon he was crossing the fields, and walking quickly on, further and further away from the scenes of his unhappy childhood.

It was almost eight o'clock in the morning, and Oliver was nearly five miles away from the town. He ran and hid behind the hedges till noon, fearing that he might be pursued and overtaken. Then he sat down to rest, and began to think for the first time where he had better go. He noticed a milestone near him on which it was written in large characters that it was just seventy miles to London. London! That great place! —nobody —not even Mr. Bumble — could ever find him there. It was the very place for a homeless boy. He jumped up, put his little bundle over one shoulder and walked forward.

Oliver walked twenty miles that day and all the time ate nothing but the piece of dry bread he had with him, and some water. When the night came lie crept under a hedge. He was cold and hungry, and more alone then he had ever fell before. Being very tired however, he soon fell asleep, and forgot his troubles.

In the morning he was obliged to exchange the only penny he had for some bread in the first village through which he passed. His feet were sore and his legs were so weak that they trembled beneath him. Another night in the cold damp air made him worse; and when he began his journey again the next morning, he could hardly crawl along.
