a) Подбираем выразительные глаголы из рассказа на с.
Move — «двигаться»: crawl — «ползти» (we were crawling), hurry — «спешить» (I hurried along). Эти слова уточняют способ движения.
Say — «говорить»: yell — «кричать» (Someone yelled frantically). Это более выразительный глагол речи; повторять сам глагол say в качестве его замены не нужно.
Look — search: searching for a way out означает «искать выход», то есть look for a way out. Здесь речь о поиске, а не просто о взгляде. Flashed our torches around означает «водили лучами фонарей вокруг» и описывает освещение пещеры; flash сам по себе не является синонимом look.
See — «увидеть»: spot — «заметить» (I spotted a very narrow tunnel). Рассказчик обнаружил узкий проход.
