5. Read the text and mark the statements True (T), False (F) or Not Stated (NS). My name’s Matthew Calwick but everybody calls me Mattie. I’m twelve years old and I go to Slighton Elementary School. I live in Blackpool in the north-west of England with my mum. Unfortunately, my parents are divorced. I don’t often see my father because he moved to Winchester last year. My mum’s name’s Sarah. She’s 39 years old and she’s a teacher in Blackpool High School. She teaches Music and History. She likes her job a lot. Students love my mum because she is very patient, sympathetic and cheerful. My mum isn’t very tall and she is slim. She has brown hair and blue eyes. She wears glasses. I think she is beautiful and looks much younger than she is. She likes wearing fashionable clothes, so she is very pretty. My mum always understands me. I can tell her everything. We spend a lot of time together. She helps me with my homework if I have any problems. In the evenings we often play board games or just talk. At the weekends she comes to my matches (I play football) or to my concerts (I play the guitar). She is very proud of me. After matches she invites me and my friends to eat an ice cream, to see a film or we go bowling. She likes my friends a lot. In her free time she meets her friends. They go to the sports centre, swim and play table tennis. My mum goes to a dance class, too. She learns salsa and does it very well. She loves reading; she has read hundreds of books.
