Task 2. An Interview Listen to a recording of an interview on monsters and epic heroes. Complete the grid below: What questions did the host ask to get his guest to give more information? What did the host say to signal that the interview is about to move on to another topic? What did the guest say to summarize his main points? YOUR TEXT Indarapatra and Sulayman 2 (A Maranao Epic) A long, long time ago, Mindanao was covered with water, and the sea covered all the lowlands so that nothing could be seen but the mountains jutting from it. There were many people living in the country and all the highlands were dotted with villages and settlements. For many years the people prospered, living in peace and contentment. Suddenly there appeared in the land four horrible monsters which, in a short time, devoured every human being they could find. Kurita, a terrible creature with many limbs, lived partly on land and partly on sea, but its favorite haunt was the mountain where the rattan palm grew and here it brought utter destruction on every living thing. The second monster, Tarabusaw, an ugly creature in the form of a man, lived on Mt. Matutum, and far and wide from that place he devoured the people, laying waste to the land. The third, an enormous bird called Pah, was so large that, when on the wing, it covered the sun and brought darkness to the earth. Its egg was as large as a house. Mt. Bita was its haunt; and there the only people who escaped its voracity were those who hid in the mountain caves. The fourth monster was also a dreadful bird, having seven heads and the power to see in all directions at the same time. Mt. Gurayan was its home and like the others, it wrought havoc to its region. So great was the death and destruction caused by these terrible creatures that at length, the news spread even to the most distant lands – and all nations grieved to hear the sad fate of Mindanao. Now far across the sea, in the land of the golden sunset, was a city so great that to look at its many people would injure the eyes of men. When tidings of these great disasters reached this distant city, the heart of King Indarapatra was filled with compassion, and he called his brother, Sulayman, and begged him to save the land of Mindanao from the monsters. 2 Ida Y.
