It has been complete havoc in the war.  The war has now been going on for exactly 3 years.  Bombs, bullets and grenades have been going crazy.


 There are two opposing alliances.  The names are the Allies, and the Central Powers.The countries of the Allies include Russia, France, British Empire, Italy, United States, Japan, Romania, Serbia, Belgium, Greece, Portugal and Montenegro.


The countries of the Central Powers include Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey and Bulgaria.
So it’s quite a huge war, with no sign of stopping. This whole war started because assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie.  Soldiers are dying constantly.  Today is the 3rd anniversary of the start of the world war.

Task 9: Listen to the audio of “The Last Post” Click here Write down how it makes you feel. This should be a mini paragraph.

It makes me feel sort of sad, and all the memories are coming back to me.  It’s somehow emotional.  It’s how you would feel when the war’s over and you were in it, but you survived.  It tells you what happened.  but in no explanations, no words.  It’s voice is full of sorrow and it feels very remberish.
