Read the passage and then decide whether the sentences are True (A) or False (B)
One primary school in the OK organized a service-learning clubs as an after-school program for their students. One of the favorite ideas for the younger students was CUSTODIAN APPRECIATION.
They decided that they wanted to thank the custodians, because they saw that they had a “messy” job to clean up the lunchroom every day, and they thought that was hard work.
They went to see the custodians doing their work before and after school. The students had fun looking at the floor polishing machines and the other “tools of the trade” up close, and talked about what they did every day. Children talked about all the people who help keep the school “running”.
They took digital photographs of all the custodians, then made thank you posters that were put in the lunchroom and hallways. The students then decided to do the same for the secretary and office staff.

Read the following passage and choose the option (A, B, C or D) that best answers each question.
The English-speaking Waiter
Thanasis is 10 years old and lives in a small village on a beautiful Greek island. Like all children his age, Thanasis has just completed year 4 in primary school. But unlike other children his age, Thanasis also has a full-time job for two months of the year. In the busy summer months Thanasis is a waiter in his family’s restaurant. In July and August, the restaurant is very popular with tourists from all over the world. Because he is the only person in his family who can speak English, it is his job to look after the tourists when they eat at the restaurant. He explains the menu, he takes their order and he even carries the heavy trays to their tables.
Where did he learn his English? There is no school in Thanasis’s village, and during the school year he travels 12 kilometres every day by bus to a nearby village to go to school. Together with his classmates, two evenings a week, he attends classes at a language school in the same village. There is no bus service when his classes end, so his mother picks him up and brings him home.
