Read the review of Madagascar. Are the sentences true or false?

David Attenborough's Madagascar

This is a three-part programme about Madagascar, one of the world's oldest islands. David Attenborough first went to Madagascar 50 years ago and this DVD shows us how the country and the island's animals have changed. He shows some film from his many visits over the years. Some of the film is in black and white.

Madagascar has mountains going from north to south and, because of the mountains, the island has a lot of different weather. The highest mountains are very high so plants and trees don't grow on them.

On the east of the mountains there are forests and amazing rivers and there are interesting birds and animals. On the west of the mountains, the weather is very dry. It has very hot days and cold nights, and there are interesting plants, birds and animals here too.

Madagascar is a really special island in the Indian Ocean, and David Attenborough tells us how many of the plants and animals changed over 60 million years. He also tells us how he filmed in difficult parts of the island. This is the best nature programme I have ever watched!

5. The writer doesn't like the DVD ________ 

Buying and selling on You Buy. Are the sentences true or false?

One way to sell something is to use YouBuy. YouBuy is a popular shopping website where people can buy and sell most things after they have registered with it. When someone is selling something, YouBuy gives them instructions on how to put information on the website and how much money the seller pays them. It’s not expensive, it’s not very difficult to do and sometimes it doesn’t take very long to sell things.

Lots of people look on YouBuy every day. One day my mother put a wool jumper and some leather boots on YouBuy and eleven people wrote to ask her about the boots. She sold them to the person who wanted to give her the most money. But you don’t always get a lot of money for your things. My older brother put his guitar on YouBuy and nobody wanted to pay more than 10£ for it. He desided not to sell it.

Sometimes YouBuy is brilliant for buying things and my dad always uses it for sports things. My mum hates using YouBuy for clothes and my brother doesn’t like to buy computer things on it. My aunt really hates YouBuy because she always sees something she likes but she never has any money to spend. But most people love it and think it’s a great way to buy, sell and sell money.
