 Reading

Read the text and answer the questions.

        My name is Alex. I’m 14 and I love fashion! I usually wear casual clothes – jeans, T-shirts and trainers. My favourite colour is blue, so I have a lot of blue things. Last weekend, I went shopping with my mum. I bought a striped hoodie and black boots. The hoodie was on sale – it was cheaper than usual. The boots fit perfectly! At school, we have a uniform, but on Fridays we can wear our own clothes. I always choose something smartcasual. My friends say I have good taste in clothes.

1.   What kind of clothes does Alex usually wear?

2.   What did Alex buy last weekend?

4.   What can students wear on Fridays at school?

5.   What do Alex’s friends think about his style?
