1. Read the four paragraphs. Try to number them and put them in the correct order.
( ) Everyone was feeling very tired when we arrived at the house. I helped my mum
and dad unpack the car and the van. The house was bigger than I expected and it took us a
long time to move everything inside. It was hard work and we were all feeling very relieved
when we finally finished moving everything into the house.
( ) While I was brushing my teeth the next morning the doorbell rang. My mum
answered the door and called me to come downstairs. At the door was a boy from the
house next door. He said he was also new in the city and had not made any friends. He
asked me if I wanted to go to the park with him. I was happy that I was able to make a new
friend so quickly. When we were playing in the park I felt much happier than I had when I
first arrived at my new house.
( ) When I was ten years old my family moved to a new city. I was very sad to leave my
old city because all of my friends lived there. My dad and his friend loaded all of our
furniture into a big van and the rest of our bags and suitcases were put in our car. It took
four hours to drive to our new home. I felt very unhappy when my dad was driving us to the
new house.
( ) I couldn’t stop crying when I was lying in bed that night. It felt very strange to be
alone in my bedroom in this new house and new city. I tried to read my favourite book to
help me sleep but it was no good. I was awake all night thinking about what my friends in
my old city were doing and if they already missed me.
