28 City or Country?

1. Reading

   a) Read about Fiona. Are the sentences true (T) or false (F)? Correct the false sentences.

   To: Alex
   From: Fiona
   Subject: My home

   Hi! My name’s Fiona. I live in Scotland. This is my house. We live in a small village in the country. I like living in the country, but sometimes it’s boring because it’s quieter than a city. I live a long way from my friends and there aren’t many shops or cafes, and there isn’t a cinema. My cousin, Alex, lives in Edinburgh. I like visiting Alex because Edinburgh is more exciting than my village. It’s much bigger, of course, and there are more interesting things to do than in the country. There are a lot of shops, cinemas and cafes. There are also a lot of buses, so it’s easier to meet friends. I love the shops and the cinemas, but I like meeting friends in cafes the most. Cafes are nice because you can sit and talk. Edinburgh is a beautiful city. I think it’s the most beautiful city in Scotland, but I like my home, too. It’s more boring than the city, but my village is cleaner and quieter, and the people are friendlier.
