The camp life was even __________________ than I had expected. We enjoyed all kinds of camping activities –– sports and games, different shows and contests. (INTERESTING)

At last, the girls said that they __________________ to Scotland one day to see it with their own eyes and to separate the truth from the myths. (COME)

A few years ago I was on a camping holiday in Bristol. There __________________ lots of other girls from around the UK, but I was the only one from Scotland. (BE)

The camp __________________ in the woods, not far from the river. (LOCATE)

My answer provoked a wave of absurd questions about my country: “Have you ever seen a ghost in your castle?” “Do all Scottish __________________ wear checked skirts?” (MAN)

Everything was fine apart from one incident that took me aback. Once, at lunchtime, when I __________________ ice cream, one of the girls asked: “So, do you have ice cream in Scotland?” (EAT)

I __________________ how to react. My neighbour repeated her question. I nodded, “Yes.” (NOT KNOW)

I __________________ out that some people believe silly stereotypes about Scotland. (FIND)

They believe that Scots really carry bagpipes in __________________ bags to play the instrument on the streets, and that Scots practise magic. (THEY)
