SUBIECTUL V (10 questions x2=20points)

Read the text and choose the correct answer:

I live in a castle! Chris and his family moved from Manchester to live in a castle in Scotland.

Our family decided that we all wanted to live together, so we looked in the newspapers and in 2010 my
aunt and uncle found a castle we could buy. There are 14 of us altogether, including aunts, uncles and
grandparents and we all have a room each. The castle is really big – it takes about ten minutes to walk
from one side to the other. It’s really cold inside the castle, especially in winter. My aunt wears a coat
inside as it’s so cold. We only had one fire at first and there were no toilets when we moved in either!
When I lived in London, the shops and school were very near. Here at the castle, it takes 20 minutes
to get to the next village to go shopping. School is four kilometers away. The best thing about living in
the castle is that there is a lot of space – I can ride my bicycle all day in our large garden. I don’t watch
our television as much as I did. We now have electricity and bathrooms and a modern kitchen so
things are much better than they were. I love living in a castle and I hope I can stay here forever.
