Текст аудирования:
It was risky, but I knew I wanted to try it. The cave diving club had never explored the dangerous ice caves in the frozen lake before, but it seemed like too incredible an opportunity to miss. We set out early on a freezing cold but sunny day and arrived at the lakeside chatting excitedly. Before I knew it, we had all dived quickly into the freezing water in our heated wetsuits. When I entered the first cave cautiously, the view was absolutely spectacular with icy stalactites and colourful creatures all around. Then, suddenly, there was an awful cracking sound above me.
I stared in horror as the cave wall began to collapse! But then I felt a rough arm pulling me. I could still hear the thunderous noise of the ice breaking as I reached the surface. My friend Liam had saved me from being crushed by the ice - just in time!
As the others surfaced, you could see the look of relief spread over everyonetasks faces. "I dontaskt think Itaskll ever do that again!" I said, still shaking with cold and fear, but extremely happy to be alive.
