A month ago I had no idea that on a Saturday afternoon in November I'd be hanging 30 metres above the ground and enjoying it. Now I looked down at the river far below me, and realised why people love rock-climbing. My friend Matt and I had arrived at the Activity Centre on Friday evening. The accommodation wasn't wonderful, but we had everything we needed (beds, blankets, food), and we were pleased to be out of the city and in the fresh air. On Saturday morning we met the other ten members of our group. Cameron had come along with two friends, Kevin and Simon, while sisters Carole and Lynn had come with Amanda. We had come from various places and none of us knew the area. We knew we were going to spend the weekend outdoors, but none of us was sure exactly how. Half of us spent the morning caving while the others went rock- climbing and then we changed at lunchtime. Matt and I went to the caves first. Climbing out was harder than going in, but after a good deal of pushing, we were out at last — covered in mud but pleased and excited by what we'd done. 21 Whatis the writer trying to do in the text? advertise the Activity Centre describe some people she met explain how to do certain outdoor sports com> say how she spent some free time 22 What can the reader leam from the text? ‘A when to depend on other people at the Centre B how to apply for a place at the Centre 'C__ what sort of activities you can experience at the Centre D__ which time of year is best to attend the CentreReading 23 How do you think the writer might describe her weekend?
