READING COMPREHENSION (15pts)

My name is Christina. I’m from Italy, but I live in London with my family. I have got a best friend called
Janet. We are in the same class. We have many things in common, but when it comes to shopping we are different
from each other. Janet wears more fashionable clothes than I do. The things in her wardrobe are more expensive
than the things in mine. We went shopping yesterday. She bought a woolen jumper and I bought a casual skirt.
Her jumper was more expensive than my skirt. I always go for cheaper clothes because I don’t want to spend lots
of money. Janet loves furry and leather clothes. I like jeans and t-shirts very much. I have four pairs of jeans
because they are really comfortable. Janet’s wardrobe is full of colourful clothes, but I mostly go for plain ones.
Janet thinks I’m old fashioned because I never throw my clothes before they are really old and useless. Janet often
buys new clothes and gives the old items to charity shops.
