Ascolta il breve dialogo tra Laura e Giancarlo e rispondi alle seguenti domande.

Il nonno e la nipote. Nipote: Nonno, mi insegni a giocare a briscola? Nonno: Va bene. Ma non è facile e ci vuole molta concentrazione. Nipote: Ma tu come hai imparato? Nonno: Eh, cara mia. Quando io ero giovane, non c’erano tutte le cose che ci sono oggi: niente videogiochi, niente Playstation, niente giochi di società come Trivial o Monopoli. Quando avevo un po’ di tempo libero però, andavo al bar a guardare tuo bisnonno che tutti i pomeriggi si incontrava con i suoi amici per giocare a briscola. Erano partite bellissime e loro si arrabbiavano quando perdevano anche se non scommettevano nulla. Guardandoli per anni e anni, ho imparato anch’io e ora sono qui per insegnarlo a te. Una tradizione che continua... Quante volte si tirano i dadi a turno? ____________________________________________________________________________________
