20) Read the following passage, then answer the questions:- the
We were standing on the bridge, trying to catch some fish for lunch when a small red plane flew almost directly above our heads. We could even see the pilot’s face. I felt rather annoyed. “I think he is in trouble”, Samy said. His engine is making a strange noise”. “Well we can’t do anything” I said” We can’t even phone from here.” We were on a holiday boat and there was no mobile signal. “We could follow the plane down the river.” Samy said, “come on let’s go.” I must admit I liked the idea. There weren’t many fish in that part of the river and I was bored. We dropped our fishing line and went towards our boat. Luckily the boat engine started at once and soon we saw the plane and the pilot. We also saw some people with cameras, they were making a film!

1- What happened while you and Samy were fishing?
