Holiday activities

There are three short texts about a similar topic, and seven questions. Read what Marta, Amy and Clara did on holiday, then for each question choose the correct person: A Marta, B Amy or C Clara. The questions are not in the same order as the information in the texts.

AMartaMarta cycling
My friend and I rented bikes. It was easy. I booked online and we collected the bikes and helmets from the shop after a late breakfast. The bike shop is only open in the summer – I guess they don’t get many customers in the winter. There’s a beautiful lake to cycle round with great views of the mountains, but I got pretty tired and hungry. You can return the bike any time you need, so I went back at 2.30 and had lunch.
BAmyAmy on a boat trip
We took a boat trip to a nearby island. We had to get up before it got light to catch the boat – it went at 6.30 am. The captain told us that they only go out in good weather – and not at all in the winter months. Although it was July, we were still pretty cold – so don’t forget a warm coat. We spent a few hours on the island, ate the sandwiches we brought with us, and came back at about 5 pm.
CClaraClara walking
My friends and I love walking, so we went on a walking tour. It started at 10 am. They do them in all weathers, all year round. It was interesting because we needed to use maps and find our own way! The walk lasted three hours, through the forest and along the beach, and we had lunch too. Our guide was interesting – he knew everything about the island! At the end, there’s a little shop where you can buy T-shirts and stuff.

For each question, choose the correct answer.

Model answer — 25+ words
Next weekend I’m going to visit my grandparents in the countryside. The forecast says it’s going to be sunny and warm, so we’re going to have a picnic in the garden and play football together.

Tip: use going to for future plans and predictions (I’m going to…, it’s going to be sunny) and weather words from the unit (sunny, warm, windy, rain).
