4. Read the following text and after you had read it, elaborate 10
questions in english in present perfect with their answer.
I think I have had a very interesting life. I'm 73 now and I don't work
anymore. I was in the army for 51 years. I retired when I was 69. I have
been to so many countries that I can't remember all of them. I've been
to Australia six or seven times and to South Africa three times. I have
also been once to Russia but I didn't like it at all: much too cold for me!
They say that love is the greatest thing and I agree. I've been married
four times but never for more than five years. I don't think women really
understand me!
I've never been on television, but I've been on the radio once. It was a
programme about life in the military about twenty years ago. I met the
Prime Minister on the same day. Actually, I've met a lot of famous
people: members of the royal family, famous politicians and also famous
cinema and television personalities. I've never met the American
President though which is a pity.
Because I've travelled a lot, I've seen a lot of wonderful things and have
also eaten and drunk some strange foods and drinks. I ate cat and rat in
India and drank something called Mirto on a little island in Italy many
years ago.
