A. Read the text and say why the girl liked her summer holidays.

The girl liked her summer holidays because it was wonderful to travel together with her best friend Kate and her family. They visited a lot of small Russian towns and some big cities. She met a lot of interesting people and began to understand how big and beautiful our country is. The sea was wonderful, blue in the morning and dark-green in the afternoon. The weather was sunny and hot. They lived in a tent, played volleyball, read books and helped Kate's mother to cook. She thinks they were the best holidays in her life.
