I. Read the passage and answer the following questions. (1,5 points)
I have twin brothers, Tim and Tom. They are very similar and a lot of people don’t know which is which. They both have blond hair and blue eyes, and they always wear jeans and T-shirts. They like doing the same things, too. For example, they both like jazz and they’re crazy about football. They go to a football match once a week. Tim doesn’t like dancing or discos and Tom doesn’t like them, either. Although they’re twins, they’re not exactly the same at everything. Tim works hard at school because he wants to go to university, but Tom is a bit lazy. Our mother is often away from home because of her job, so we all work together in the house. Most of the time it’s fine, but sometimes we fight a bit!
 1. Is Tim very similar to Tom or different from him? 
 2. What do they look like? 
 3. What do Tim and Tom always wear? 
 4. How often do they go to a football match?
 5. What don’t they like? 
 6. Why is their mother often away from home? 
II/ Read this passage and decide whether these statements are True or False. (1,5 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 cannot 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.
 The village green is a wide stretch of grass, and houses or cottages are built round it. Country life is now comfortable and many villages have water brought through pipes into each house. Most villages are so close to some small towns that people can go there to buy what they can't find in the village shops.
........... The town isn't so beautiful as the country.
........... Many people live in the country all the year round.
 Everyone builds a cottage in the village in order to go there at any time.
