III. Read the article and answer the questions.

I am Kate, I live in Cairo, which is the capital of Egypt. There are more than ten million people here. A lot of them come from the countryside because there are more jobs here.

I live in an apartment near the city center. It is a busy, exciting place. It has cinemas and shops, but unfortunately there is a lot of traffic too. Many tourists come from all over the world to see the Pyramids, which are near the city.

I like Cairo because it is big and exciting. I have a lot of friends and it is easy to meet new people. I am glad that I live here, but my mother doesn’t like it. She used to live in the countryside, and she would like to go back one day.
