    PAST EXPERIENCES

    Read the text. Answer the comprehension questions.

    My life was very easy until I was 15 years old. My family was rich, and I never
    worry about anything. Then one day my father left us. We sold our beautiful
    house and moved to a small apartment. My mom had to work in an office. My
    brothers and sisters and I had left private school and began attending public
    school. I was extremely lonely and unhappy. I couldn’t make friends at the new
    school. Everyone thought I was a snob. My life had changed when I got an after
    school job at a small bakery in town. The owner, Mrs. Garcia, took a special
    interest in me. She had taught me about baking, running a small business, and life
    in general. Two years ago, Mrs. Garcia retired. Since that time, I have been
    running the bakery on my own. It hasn’t been easy to run a business and attend
    school part-time. I’ve been experiencing an easy life and a hard life and, in many
    ways, the hard life is better.

    1. What was the period of her life until she had a very easy life? When she had
    15 years old
    2. Why did they have to sell their house? Because her father left them
    3. What feelings will describe the narrator? Disgusted but satisfied
    4. What do you understand by snob? Someone without humility
    5. What does she say about life experience? She say that the life is very
    difficult when someone has to work and go to school in the same time, but
    is better for learn about the hard life.
