  Revision Lesson 3 Gretel
  Gretel comes from Austria. She is eighteen years old. She is going to stay with the Clark family for a year. Gretel has come to England because she wants to improve her English. She works as an au pair girl. She helps Mrs Clark in the house and attends English classes regularly in her spare time.
  Gretel hasn't been in England long and everything is strange to her. She often compares life in London with life in Vienna. Some things are nicer in London, other things are not so nice. For instance, the shops are bigger in London than in Vienna and there is greater Variety. But it's more expensive to enjoy yourself in London. It's expensive to have a meal at a restaurant or to go to a theatre.
  Gretel has got used to many things already, but she can't get used to breakfast in England. "You English eat so much in the morning,"she often says. "Fruit juice, porridge, bacon and egg, tea, toast and marmalade! How can you face all that food so early in the day?"
