This B1-level worksheet is a mystery-based reading and speaking activity set in a workplace environment. A key machine breaks down in a factory, causing a full-day shutdown. Six workers are interviewed—each offering a vague explanation and denying full responsibility. Students must read the short monologues carefully, analyze the clues, and decide who is most to blame. Includes factory-related vocabulary, gap fill, comprehension and deduction questions, and group discussion. Ideal for vocational English, soft skills, critical thinking, and teamwork-based lessons.
