    Reading Comprehension
    Text 1
    Hello! My name is Sam. One of my favourite vacation places is Mexico. I really like the weather
    there because it isn’t cold. The people are very nice too. They never laugh at my bad Spanish.
    The food is really good. Mexico City is a very interesting place to visit. There are some great
    museums and lots of fascinating old buildings. The hotels are very expensive but there are
    cheaper options. For example, you can stay at one of the beach resorts like Acapulco. If you
    are planning to go to Mexico, visit the Mayan temples near Merida!

    I. Indicate if the sentences are true or false. Correct the false ones.
    • Sam loves cold weather.
    • His Spanish is very good.
    • There’s a lot to see and do in Mexico.
    • Hotels in Mexico aren’t cheap.
    • Sam invites the reader to visit the Mayan temples.
