4 CASINO ROYALE
For a moment, Bond lay still. Then the thin man came and pulled him up against the wall. He had a gun in his hand. He used it to hit Bond hard across the legs. Bond cried out with pain and fell on to his knees. A door banged shut. Vesper and the third gunman had disappeared. Bond turned his head to the right and saw Le Chiffre. ‘Come here, my dear friend,’ said Le Chiffre. He spoke calmly in English. ‘Let's not waste any more time.’
• Extra grammar and vocabulary exercises • Notes about the life of Ian Fleming • Notes about the story • Points for Understanding comprehension questions • Free resources including worksheets, tests and author data sheets at www.macmillanenglish.com/readers
