Reading
14 Read the text about Rosa, a 13 year old girl from Mexico. Say two things that she does:
on weekdays, in her free time.

Today in our series ‘What’s it like being 13?’ we talk to Rosa,

a girl from Mexico.
1
It starts at 8:30 am and finishes at 2:30 every weekday. In the mornings we study maths, science and other
subjects, and in the afternoon we study languages. We learn French and English at school. Today, I’m preparing
for my French test. I’m sitting it tomorrow.
2
I get a lot of it! After school I help my father in his shop. I do my homework when I get home around 5 o’clock, and
then I help with dinner.
3
I’m not sure how to answer that. My father pays me to work in his shop. So, my parents give me money, but I have
to earn it. Does that count?
4
I usually hang out with my cousins. We play video games, go to the park and have a great time together. At the
weekend, we are going to the seaside. I also like spending time at home listening to music, chatting online with
friends and surfing the Net. On Sundays, I often watch a film with my family.
5
I live in a three-bedroom flat with my parents and brother. My older sister used to live with us as well, but she’s
studying in Canada right now.
6
Not really. My parents are usually cheerful and in a good mood. Sometimes I argue with my brother. However, we
spend a lot of time together. We like going to the cinema together.
7
I really enjoy school, have a lot of good friends and my family is pretty nice. One thing that I don’t like is I can’t go to
bed late on a school night.
8
Most of the things I worry about are related to my education. I worry about doing well on my tests and what to study
at university.
