Crazy laws
In this session, to help you practise participle clauses, we have a fun challenge. It's all about strange laws that exist, or are said to exist!
For example, there's an urban myth that London taxis have to carry a bale of hay in theboot.
So, is it true? In the past, London taxis were not cars, but horse-drawn carriages. And instead of petrol, their fuel was hay! But the law stopped in 1976.
So what are the funniest stupid laws?
In our challenge, listen to Finn challenging Neil to identify the UK's favourite stupid laws, based on a survey which appeared in The Telegraph newspaper.
To do
Listen and play along with Neil as he answer the questions. Then, do the quiz at the end to test yourself. There are examples of participle clauses in both the listening activity and the quiz. Good luck!
