Passage 3
Many years ago, before it was fashionable to date on the internet, I met a Swedish lady online.
We got on well from the first minute we started chatting, and she soon became my girlfriend. The
only problem was that I lived in the UK and she was in Sweden. For a couple of years, we had a
long distance relationship. We talked on the phone and sent emails to each other. We didn’t tell
our friends how we met because we were embarrassed. After a while, I decided to leave England
and move to Sweden. When I arrived, I proposed to her and she said yes. Now, we are happily
married and we have four children. I think online dating is fantastic. I met my wife because of it!

Passage 6
Kentwell Hall is a large, 16th-century house built 400 years ago during the Tudor period of
English history. For several weeks every summer, up to 200 actors re-create Tudor life there.
Visitors to the Kentwell Re-Creation will watch people who dress, talk and do things just as
they used to do them in Tudor times.You don’t have to be a professional to be in the annual
Kentwell Re-Creation and you won’t be paid, but anyone of anyago can apply to take part.
Sixteen-year-old Sally Hampton started doing it four years ago. “There are lots of different
roles. For three years I was a servant in the kitchen and learnt a lot about the food and
ingredients the Tudors used, and also about the society at that time. This year I’m in a group of
players who go round performing songs and dances. Sometimes I play an original Tudor
instrument, rather like a flute, and I’ve learnt lots of 16th- century tunes. My favourite is called
Greensleeves.” The Kentwell Re-Creation is a fantastic opportunity to get away from the 21st
century. It means leaving your mobile andyour jeans behind and living like a 16th-century
person. When I first started I felt a bit stupid in my costume, trying to speak old-fashioned
English but I got over it very quickly because everyone else was doing the same. And I‟ve
made so many friends here, I can’t wait to come back again.”
