L) READ THE TEXT BELOW AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS

Jeremy and Mary are moving into a new house. They bought it about a couple of months ago, but they can’t move in yet, because it is quite old and needs a lot of work. For example, the windows all rattle in the wind, so they’re going to replace them. At the moment, there are five bedrooms upstairs, but two of them are very small, so Jeremy and Mary are going to knock down the wall between them and make them into one big room. This is going to be their bedroom. Their two children are going to have two of the other rooms and the final room is going to be for the guests. Downstairs, there is also a lot of work to do. In the living room, there was once a fireplace, but the previous owners blocked it up and used an electric heater. Mary and Jeremy both love fires, so they’re going to unblock it, clean the chimney and use it again. They are also going to rebuild the kitchen. In the garden, there is an old shed, but it’s going to fall down, so they can’t use it. Jeremy is going to pull it down and, in its place, put up a greenhouse. Mary’s hobby is gardening, so he needs a greenhouse for her seedlings during the winter. The work on the house is clearly going to take a long time, but the whole family is really looking forward to it because when it’s finished, it’s going to be beautiful.
