“The old coronel”

“I think I have had a very interesting life. I'm 73 now and I don't work anymore. I was in the army
for 51 years. I retired when I was 69. I have been to so many countries that I can't remember all of
them. I've been to Australia six or seven times and to South Africa three times. I have also been
once to Russia but I didn't like it at all: much too cold for me!

They say that love is the greatest thing and I agree. I've been married four times but never for
more than five years. I don't think women really understand me!

I've never been on television, but I've been on the radio once. It was a programme about life in the
military about twenty years ago. I met the Prime Minister on the same day. Actually, I've met a lot
of famous people: members of the royal family, famous politicians and also famous cinema and
television personalities. I've never met the American President though which is a pity.

Because I've travelled a lot, I've seen a lot of wonderful things and have also eaten and drunk some
strange foods and drinks. I ate cat and rat in India and drank something called Mirto on a little
island in Italy many years ago.

1. Has the old coronel been to Australia?

2. Did he like Russia?

3. What does he think about love?

4. Has he been on television?

5. Has he met a lot of famous people?

6. What has he eaten and drunk?
