Town Has Strange Records – level 2

Town Has Strange Records

28-07-2021 15:00

In the Czech Republic, a small town earned thousands of records and hosted a festival to show them off. Some of the records were racing with folding ladders or folding scarves.

The president of the festival was happy that people came to see the festival and understand its ‘essence’. He wanted to show people that life is more than being online and that it is about doing things.

Difficult words: folding (able to be folded – made smaller), ladder (a small ladder that you use to reach high items at home), essence (the most important part of something).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
