He worked hard to make Azerbaijan stronger and more independent. Speaker 2: Good afternoon, everyone! We are so happy to see you here today. Please make yourselves comfortable. Speaker 3: We are repairing the old walls and fixing the roof. This place will look beautiful again once we're finished. Speaker 4: Don't tell anyone, but something exciting will happen tomorrow. Track 3 Speaker 1: I remember the days I spent at my grandmother's house. She would always bake cookies, and we would cheerfully eat them together in the garden. Speaker 2: I used to play football with my friends in the park. We would excitedly run around and chase the ball every afternoon after school. Speaker 3: I often visited the library as a child. I quietly sat in the corner, curiously reading books about magical worlds and dreaming of adventures. Speaker 4: I remember my first trip to the beach. I was so young, and I nervously stepped into the water, but soon I was bravely jumping over the waves. Speaker 5: My dad patiently taught me |  | how to ride a bike. At first, it was really hard, but I quickly learned and rode my bike around the neighbourhood. Speaker 6: I used to build models of cars and planes carefully. I proudly displayed them on my shelf, showing them off to my friends when they visited. Track 4 Speaker 1: I was playing outside when I fell. Suddenly, I felt a lot of pain and started screaming. My grandmother quickly ran to me. I couldn't stand up or walk. She was only 1.52 meters tall and very weak, but she still picked me up and carried me into her house. I was six years old and much bigger than her. Everyone in the family was surprised. But she just smiled and said, "I would never let my boy be in pain." I lost her 5 years ago, and I really miss her. Speaker 2: When I was about six or seven, my parents took me to an amusement park. It was a tradition we often had in summer. We rode the carousel, ate cotton candy and had a great time. Before we left the park, my dad bought me a balloon. On the way home, I played with it in the car. The windows were open because the air-conditioning wasn't working, and the balloon flew out of my hands and disappeared. I cried, and my parents tried to comfort me. I'll never forget that moment. Speaker 3: When I was about 4 years old, my family took me to the beach on a hot summer day. We were sitting on a blanket, enjoying the sun and eating snacks. My mom had a cup of hot tea next to her, and I was curious about it. I reached out and put my finger into the tea without thinking. It was so hot that I immediately screamed and pulled my finger back. My mom quickly grabbed me and looked at my finger. It was red and hurting. After that, I was always careful around hot drinks. I'll never forget that moment as it left me with a strong fear of hot tea.
