1. Read about one of David’s family traditions and disagree with the statements that follow.

Summer is my favourite season for its long sunny days and exciting vacations. Also I like summer
for weekends with barbecue. It is a family tradition which holds us together. My parents, my aunt and
uncle, my cousins, and my grandparents get together almost every weekend. We enjoy beautiful
weather and organize all sorts of competitions. I especially like the water balloon race. When we get
tired and hungry, we sit on the grass to rest and eat barbecue and other delicious food. We talk about
lots of interesting things. In fact, I like to listen more, especially when grandpa and grandma tell us
about their life.
I think that family traditions create good feelings and special moments to remember. The traditions in
my family helped us learn more about each other and value more the family support and care.
1) David’s family is not very large.
2) David loves the weekend because of the barbecue.
3) David doesn’t like active games.
4) David is talkative.
5) David thinks family traditions are useless.
