ACTIVITY 1

. Read the description circle the adjectives you find

Yesterday I went to a new art museum. I like to look at the

beautiful paintings and the bright colours. I looked in a very
big room that had large statues.  Many of the statues were
very tall.  The next room I visited had many old paintings.  
The paintings were painted by very famous artists.  The
paintings were incredible.  After the museum I went for a walk
on the street.  It was lunchtime and the street was very busy.

 
The traffic was loud and the busy people went from place to
place.  The street was tiny and there were many trucks and
vans.  I decided to have lunch because I was very hungry.  
The restaurant I went to was beautiful, and the food smelled
delicious.  I ate pasta, with a creamy, white sauce.  For
dessert I had a piece of apple pie with ice cream.  The food
was delicious and it was a great day
