1. ROLE PLAY: Space Travel
A: Amelia F: David
(F is reading a newspaper in a café when A arrives)
A: Hi David!
F: Hi Amelia! How are you?
A: I have got news for us. Our boss has ordered us that we have to go to the moon to catch
some lunar rocks and analyse them.
F: What? When will it be?
A: We have one week to prepare. We will depart next Wednesday.
F: Ok…
**ONE WEEK LATER **
F: Everything is ready for the take-off?
A: Yes, I think so…
F: OK, so let’s start the countdown! – 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Go!
**TWODAYS LATER, AT THE MOON **
F: Now that we are up here, where do we start? This is bigger than expected.
A: I think we could start over that crater, and then we could go down.
CATCHING ROCKS
F: This rock has a large amount of salt. In the past, maybe there were oceans and lakes here.
A: This one also contains some carbon, an indicator of life.
F: I think that we’ve caught already a lot of rocks. We have to return to the ship now if we
don’t want a lack of oxygen.
A: Right. Are you carrying the rocks?
F: (walking towards the ship)Yes. They are really heavy. How many rocks have we caught?
A: I don’t remember the number now.
WE RETURN TO THE SHIP

2. F: Fine, I have checked all the system and I think that everything is OK.
A: Are you sure? I think that those red lights don’t have to be enlightened.
F: We will be OK, don’t worry.
TRIES TO SWITCH ON THE SHIP
F: It doesn’t work…
A: What happens?
F: Amelia, we’ve a problem. Something is wrong.
A: WHAT?
LIGHT GOES OFF
EVERYTHING EXPLODES AND THE CHARACTERS DIE
