IV. Read the text carefully, then decide whether the following statements are true (T) or
false (F).

I live in a small village called Henfield. There are about 500 people here. The village is quiet
and life here is slow and easy. You never have to queue in shops or banks. People never throw
their rubbish in the streets, so the village is always clean. The air is also very clean because
there‟s not much heavy traffic. It‟s much more friendly here than in a city. Everyone knows
everyone and if someone has a problem, there are always people who can help. However, there
are some things I don‟t like about Henfield. One thing is that there‟s not much to do in the
evening. We haven‟t got any cinemas or theatres. Another problem is that people always talk
about each other and everyone knows what everyone is doing. But I still prefer village life to life
in a big city.
