LISTENING 2 (Items 6-10) (5 marks) You are going to hear a story named "Surprise." Listen and for each item, write a short answer (not more than FOUR WORDS). There was a joint family of six members, including the grandparents. It was the 75th birthday of the grandmother and the family planned to celebrate it by throwing a surprise party. The family began going out for preparations and since it was supposed to be a surprise, they would leave their grandmother alone at home. As the big day came nearer, the grandmother started feeling isolated and lonely. She believed that since everyone was caught up in their own business, they had forgotten about her birthday. On the day of her birthday, no one wished her and she was sad. Everyone started getting ready and told her that they had their own respective plans. The grandfather asked her to accompany him for a walk. It was all a part of their plan. The grandfather took the route to the venue and didn’t make it look in a way that could make her suspicious. Upon reaching the venue, the lights suddenly went on and everybody shouted, “Happy Birthday”. The grandmother was overwhelmed and tears of love came rolling down her eyes. This was the happiest birthday till then.
