A. Read about Megan and her family.
Megan likes Spanish but she’s not very keen on sports
My name is Megan and I am a thirteen-year-old English girl from Manchester. I’m a student at
Kingston Lane Comprehensive School. My favourite subjects are maths and foreign languages,
especially Spanish. I’m not very good at history and geography.
I’ve got a twin brother, Dennis, and a sister, Pam. My dad works at the Town Council. He’s a
civil servant. My mum is a primary school teacher. They are all very important to me.
I’m not very keen on sports. I sometimes go cycling with my brother and friends when the
weather is good. I never watch sports on TV but my dad and Dennis always do.
I’ve got some friends at school. We usually meet on Saturdays and go to the disco. Sometimes
we go to the cinema.
