fruit, vegetables and clothes. There was one coat stall
there that I loved and just after New Year about 20
years ago, I saw the most wonderful coat there. It was Vocabulary
black with small bits of different colours in it. The Exercise 7
problem was it was very expensive. It cost £50 and I 1 character 2 afford 3 pregnant 4 faith 5
had never spent more than £30 on a coat before. But philosopher 6 battery
every Saturday for about seven weeks I visited the stall
and tried on what I had come to think of as ‘my coat’. Of Exercise 8
course it was a perfect fit. 1d 2b 3a 4f 5c 6e

him the £50. He just laughed and pointed to the sign, married
which said ‘Half price sale’. So I got my amazing coat
for just £25.

Exercise 15
Sample answer
I recently attended a wonderful rugby match. It was part
of the Rugby Union World Cup. The match was held in
the stadium at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in
Stratford in east London, which is just half an hour’s
bus journey from where I live.
My parents got tickets for my brother and me as we
both love rugby and we play it at school. The teams that
were playing were Romania and France. My brother
wanted Romania to win because he had a Romanian
girlfriend at the time, but I wanted France to win as I
really liked the captain, Morgan Parra.
We got to the stadium way too early, and we were two
of the first people to arrive, but gradually it got crowded.
Lots of people had come over from France and
Romania especially for the match and the atmosphere
before the kick-off was brilliant, with lots of people
waving French and Romanian flags and singing their
national anthems.
Romania started really well, but they got tired towards
the end and France won by 38 points to 11, so my
brother wasn’t very happy. I remember buying him a
burger to cheer him up.
