--- Lesson 33 Out of darkness |

--- First listen and then answer the question. |
| [00:14.240] |
--- Why was the girl in hospital? |
| [00:19.320] |
Nearly a week passed before the girl was able to explain what had happened to her. |
| [00:27.520] |
One afternoon she set out from the coast in a small boat and was caught in a storm. |
| [00:36.400] |
Towards evening, the boat struck a rock and the girl jumped into the sea. |
| [00:44.280] |
Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water. |
| [00:51.200] |
During that time she covered a distance of eight miles. |
| [00:57.480] |
Early next morning, she saw a light ahead. |
| [01:02.200] |
She knew she was near the shore because the light was high up on the cliffs. |
| [01:09.480] |
On arriving at the shore, the girl struggled up the cliff towards the light she had seen. |
| [01:18.400] |
That was all she remembered. |
| [01:21.640] |
When she woke up a day later, she found herself in hospital. |
