grandmother in the world.


Everyone I used to know my Grandma because she was kind to everyone. She kept me the house in
very nice order and whenever one of my uncles or aunties got married or something they could leave all
the arrangements for my Grandma. She made everything look so easy and perfect.

health, They did everything for her but in November she died in hospital. It was a shock to everyone
because they loved her so much. When she was dead, everything seemed to change. And when
Christmas came that year, it was quieter than other Christmas because my grandma wasn’t there and
everything was different. Whenever my Granpa was by himself he used to stay in his room and cry to
himself and sometimes when Mum sees my Grandpa unhappy, she invites him to stay over at our place.

always remember her.

Exercise 2: Reading comprehension
In the last few weeks I have spent every Saturday in my flat and have done nothing more
exciting than work at home, read the newspapers, and watch television. I had begun feeling bored
with this and so, last weekend I thought I would do something different. I phone several of my
friends and we decided to go to London for the day. I was really excited as I hadn't been to London
since I was ten. We decided to go by coach as this was the cheapest means of transport. In London
we decided to take a sightseeing tour as we wanted to see some of the famous buildings. After the
tour, we bought some sandwiches and ate them in a small park. In the afternoon some of us went
shopping and the others went to the theater. We met up again at 6.30 pm and went to a small
restaurant in Sotho. The meal was really good, but, unfortunately, it took much longer than we had
expected. We had to get a taxi back to the coach station. Luckily, we got there just two minutes
before our coach left.
