Reading test - 5 Form, II term

My favourite hobby

My name is Jane and my hobby is painting. I like to paint animals and flowers, but I’m not good at painting people. Most of all I enjoy painting the places I visit. My parents and I often go for excursions to other towns and visit different famous places.

 My parents use a camera to take photos but I think that to have a picture which you have painted yourself is more interesting.

When I come home after each excursion, I bring my pictures to school to show them to the classmates and the teachers. Everybody likes them and they say I’ll become a famous artist in the future. Last year I took part in the competition of young painters of our town and won it. My parents were proud of me and my teacher of Art presented me wonderful paints.

I. Choose if the statement is "True", or if it is "False".
