I think I have had a very interesting life. I'm 73 now and I don't want to work anymore. I have been
in the army my whole life, 51 years. I have been to so many countries that I can't remember all of
them. I've been to Australia six or seven times and to South Africa three times. I have also been to
Russia but I didn't like it at all: much too cold for me!
They say that love is the greatest thing and I agree. I've been married four times but never for more
than five years. I don't think women really understand me!
I've never been on television, but I've been on the radio once. It was a programme about life in the
military about twenty years ago. I met the Prime Minister on the same day. Actually, I've met a lot of
famous people: members of the royal family, famous politicians and also famous cinema and television
personalities. I've never met the American President though which is a pity.
Because I've travelled a lot, I've seen a lot of wonderful things and have also eaten and drunk some
strange foods and drinks. I ate cat and rat in India and drank something called Mirto on a little island
in Italy.
In order to ask the questions, use the verb in brackets for present perfect. Remember to use
the interrogative structures for this part!
PRODUCTION:
Be ready for a quiz at the platform about the topic practiced.
