Контрольная работа по чтению УМК "Английский в фокусе" для 7 класса

1.     Read Pamela’s speaking about her part-time job and then decide if the facts below are True (T) or False (F).

I had this part-time job of baby-sitting. I worked on Wednesdays, from eight in the morning until two in the afternoon. I only had one little boy, and he was about four at the time. Andy was usually in bed when I got there in the mornings. He woke up around 9. Then after breakfast we went out round the park, then we’d go back and would have a sleep. When he got up we just read baby books. It was a good job. I got good play. I think it was 75 dollars an hour, which wasn’t bad. I really enjoyed it. I liked Andy and he liked me.
