Hooray! It’s a Holiday! Read the texts. Then read the statements that follow the text. Match the statements to the speakers, Kate or Mike.
Kate When I am free from school, I usually like spending my holiday outside. I go for a walk and take my camera with me. I like visiting new places and taking photos of them. I think the best way to know the city is to go on foot. You can learn a lot from walking and talking with people. I don’t like sitting at home and playing board games, for example. It is boring for me.
Mike On my holidays, I usually like going away with my family. We travel to a new country, learn a new culture. We always choose the country with the sea because I like water sports. I think diving is the best way to see beautiful fish and coral reefs. Also, I go sailing with my dad and sometimes we see dolphins. I prefer an active holiday. I don’t like just lying on the beach. Number of connections: 3 He/she doesn’t like spending holiday at home. He/she likes going sightseeing. He/she likes visiting a new country on holiday. Kate Mike
