There’s no place like home

by Jack Fleming
You don’t really think about your home until you have to move somewhere else, or at least I never thought
about my home in England until then. But everything changed when Dad came home from work a couple
of months ago to tell us more about his new job. ‘So what?’ I thought to myself. And then he said: ‘The new
job is in Berlin – in Germany’.
And now, two months later, here we are, living in an apartment close to Berlin city centre. I’m going to an
international school because I don’t speak German and this is an important year for me because I have
to pass some big exams at the end. Our lessons are all in English but because Dad’s here for the next five
years, I must learn German!
Like the language, everything around me is still very new. But I like being in the city because it’s more
interesting than being in a small place. It’s easy to get around because the public transport is brilliant and
it’s cheaper than back home. There are so many amazing things to see and do.
Life is exciting, but I miss my friends back home. We skype and email and I keep in touch with everyone on
Facebook but it’s not like being together. I hope that I can go back home in the holidays and maybe some
of my friends can come and visit too.
What else do I miss? Well, I miss my old room and I know Mum misses the garden because she liked to
grow lots of vegetables but I don’t think Dad misses anything and my sister is never in so I don’t know
what she misses!

Are the sentences True (T) or False (F)? If there isn’t enough information in the text,
write Doesn’t Say (DS).
0 Jack knew before his dad told him that his new job meant moving to another country. F
1 Jack’s apartment in Berlin is bigger than his family flat in England.
2 Jack needs to study very hard while he’s in Berlin.
3 It’s easier to travel in Berlin than in Jack’s hometown.

5 Jack’s sister is older than him.
