FACT BOX SHERGAR

Shergar was a very famous (and valuable) racehorse. In 1983, the horse was kidnapped from the Aga Khan’s stables in Ireland. Although the owners received a demand for money, they never heard from the kidnappers again, and the horse disappeared.

1 The kidnappers might have sold (sell) Shergar.

2 He ___________ (race) again because he was too famous – someone would have recognised him.

3 The kidnappers ___________ (kill) him.

4 Shergar ___________ (be) dead now.

5 Lord Lucan ___________ (attack) his wife.

FACT BOX LORD LUCAN

In 1973 Lord Lucan, a member of the British aristocracy, disappeared. He was living separately from his wife but on the day that he vanished, his wife was attacked and his children’s nurse was murdered. Some people believe he left the country and went to live abroad. Other people think he killed himself. Lord Lucan is now legally dead because there was no evidence that he was alive for more than seven years. However, if he is still alive, he will be in his 70s.

6 He ___________ (murder) the nurse.

7 He ___________ (go) to live in another country.

8 He ___________ (stay) in London.

9 He ___________ (be) alive today.
