Reading

Loren Hammonds, fifteen, is from New York City, on the east coast of the United States.

Tom Denby, fifteen, is from Devon, in the southwest of Great Britain.

I am from New York City and I love it. It’s exciting because there is so much to do! I live in an apartment in Manhattan with my mom and dad.

I have two sisters. They are both married. They also live in New York City. They visit us on Sundays, and we have dinner together. Then we watch our favorite TV show.

I’m a student at a local high school. My favorite subject is math. I also like music. I’m in a rap group called Urban Dwellers. We practice every afternoon after school. We rap about things that happen around us, about things we see in the street, or about things that annoy us.

My ambition is to become a math teacher or a famous musician.

I live in Marwood, a village in Devon, Great Britain. It doesn’t have any stores, and it is a boring place. I never go out at night because there is nothing to do!

I have one sister. She’s nineteen, and she’s a college student.

My parents are divorced. My sister and I live with our mom. I have lots of friends, but they don’t live in Marwood. They live far away from us. I have a motorcycle, and I ride it in the country on weekends. I can’t ride it on the road because I am only fifteen years old.

I go to high school. I study a lot of things, but my favorite subject is art. One day I want to work in a museum.
