[00:01.080]--- Lesson 33 Out of darkness
[00:08.200]--- 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.
