Read the following texts carefully and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
On Saturday afternoon I left my hand bag on the bus. In it were my cheque book, address book and my purse, which contained about £50 in cash and some credit cards. When I realized what I had done, it was too late. I didn't know what to do; I am 72 years old, was a long way from home, and I was quite worried. In fact, I stood by the side of the road and just cried. A young man asked me what was wrong and I explained what had happened to me. He gave me some money for my bus fare home. When I told the bus driver what had happened he said I should keep the fare. I got home safely and the telephone rang soon after. It was the manager of City Bus, the company that owned the bus on which I had left my handbag. He said that they had my handbag and he offered to drive over to return it. I had my handbag back, amazingly with all its contents untouched. I would just like to say how wonderful everybody was who helped me on that day, and how much I appreciate their kindness and honesty.
Mrs. A. Jackson, Newland.

My name is Huy and fishing is my favourite sport. I often fish for hours without catching anything. But this doesn’t worry me. Some fishermen are unlucky.

After spending the whole morning on the river, I always go home with an empty bag. “You should give up fishing”, my friends say. “ It’s a waste of time”. But they don’t know that I’m not really interested in fishing. I’m only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all!
