III. Read the text and mark the sentences below T (True) or F (False) (3 points)
The country is more beautiful than a town and more pleasant to live in. Many
people think so, and go to the country for the summer holidays though they can not live
there all the year round. Some have a cottage built in a village so that they can go there
whenever they can find the time.
English villages are not all alike, but in some ways they are not very different
from one another. Almost every village has a church, the round or square tower of
which they can be seen for many miles around. Surrounding the church is the
churchyard, where people are buried.

The village green is a wide stretch of grass, and houses or cottages are built
around it. Country life is now fairly comfortable and many villages have water brought
through pipes into each house. Most villages are so close to some small town that
people can go there to buy what they can’t find in the village shops.
