Varun
OK, confused in order for questions 17, 18:Tapescripts:S o if you didn't bring any walking boots I'd advise you to hire some from the office. You'll also be much better off in long trousers rather than shorts because they will give your legs more protection, and socks are a good idea too.So it would be 17. long trousers, 18. socks; but how could the answer be 17. socks and 18. long trousers?
Faizulla Arailym
Yes, you are right. I was just thinking about it.
