Exercise – 5
Fill in the boxes below.
1. has always been very hard for foreigners to get used to the British weather, because 2. ‘s always raining and 3. ‘s not much to do outdoors . Winters can get very long , and 4. ‘s likely that one won’t get to see the sun for long periods of time , whichever the season. 5. can be very hard for people to live here permanently , especially for the outdoorsy type of person , so 6. ‘s a good reason for migrants to think twice before they decide to make the move . But 7. seems to be something that expats living in Britain like about our country , because in a survey carried out in 2013 , 69% of expats living in Britain said they liked it here . 8. appears that the things they don’t like about us, which are basically the weather , the food and our heavy drinking culture , aren’t enough to make them change the overall positive opinion they have of Britain and the British . Maybe 9. ‘s the politics , the economy , the football , or our sense of humour — who knows!— but 10. ‘s obviously something good enough here to make them stay.
