READING . Read this text and do Task A and B 5 x 0.2= 1 mark
Well now you can discover the answer to all these questions and many more at the Fame Hotel in
California. Ten miles outside Los Angeles, the Fame Hotel promises to answer the question "What
if?” When you check into the hotel, you choose a room. Each room has a name. There's Clint
Eastwood on the second floor and Elvis Presley on the third floor. In total, the Fame Hotel has 32
rooms, most of which are named after stars of Hollywood or music.
I spoke to one guest staying in the Elvis Presley room. "I love this hotel," he said to me. "I wanted
to know 'What would Elvis Presley eat for breakfast?' and now I know". That guest eats pancakes
and strawberry ice cream every morning, just as Elvis liked to do. On the next table, the Einstein
room's guest is eating cabbage soup!
What would your life be like if you were Albert Einstein? What clothes would be in your wardrobe
if you were a famous actor? We have all liked to be a famous celebrity for one day at least. But we
all know how difficult it might be to take their place for a day. We might have lots of people
waiting for us to sign autographs or even paparazzi spying on us all day long.
When you enter the room, you enter the life of that person. There are pictures everywhere. The
owner of the hotel has tried to fill the room with objects, clothes, even food that he thinks the stars
would have liked. For example, Marilyn Monroe's wardrobe is full of beautiful white dresses,
Albert Einstein doesn't have any socks in his wardrobe because the real Einstein never wore them!
If you choose Mike Tyson's room, you'll be able to practise boxing in one corner of the room.
TASK A: Number the paragraphs in the correct order

TASK B Circle T for true and F for false. Correct the false statement/s on the blank line/s below.
