Quiz 2	READING COMPREHENSION
R1.   READ TED’S TRAVEL BLOG. THEN CHECK THE FIVE TRUE STATEMENTS.
Queenstown, New Zealand Well, I’ve always wanted to travel “down under,” and we finally made it! We arrived on the South Island after a 14-hour flight from Los Angeles. First we stayed for a couple of days in Christchurch, and then we rented a car and drove here. It’s fall in New Zealand. It feels like November, and the leaves are falling. Queenstown is in the Southern Alps. The scenery is just incredible – a lake on one side and snowy peaks all around. I took a sky train into the mountains this morning. It’s so beautiful. In some ways, New Zealand is more like the U:K: than the U:S: The food is mostly British, and they love to drink tea here! I’ve had tea every afternoon since I arrived. A bit of a change for me – at home I always drink coffee. We’re going to Milford Sound tomorrow. That’s on the west coast. People say the scenery there is like parts of Norway.
1.   It ‘s Ted first trip to New Zeland.			2.   Queenstown is near a lake.
