Finding Specific Information

What are we learning today?

You will find numbers, names and places in short texts.

Explanation

• Look quickly for numbers, names and places.
• Find the sentence in the text. Then compare it with the question.
• For true or false tasks, correct the false sentence.
• Example facts: The Lord of the Rings films were made in New Zealand. The filming took eighteen months. There are 900 steps up to St Michael's church.

Examples

1. About 3.2 million people visit Mont Saint-Michel every year, but only about 50 live there.
2. David's whole journey to school is only 45 minutes.
3. "All the film towns were kept." This is false. Only Hobbiton was kept.

Remember!

• Look for numbers, names and places.
• Correct a false sentence.

Check yourself
