TEST "Writing. 2nd term" (Wider World 2)

Choose the correct option to complete the blog entry.

Today I’m         [going, trying, wanting] to tell you all about my friend, Alastair.

He's               [chattier, more chatty, the chattiest] person I know. He loves talking        [about, on, around] the games he plays on his laptop. He’s absolutely            [into, crazy, interested] about playing games, especially online.

I            [am knowing, have known, knew] him since we were both six years old. He's my friend because he's cheerful and         [moody, shy, helpful] – he always wants to do things for other people.

Alastair also does a lot of sport, but he doesn’t eat much healthy food. He eats          [too many, too much, any] crisps and burgers! He’s much             [better, the best, better than] me at most sports, except swimming.

I always        [read, follow, watch] him on Twitter – he posts some really funny tweets! Sometimes, he’s a bit             [adventurous, aggressive, impulsive] and makes big decisions without really thinking about them carefully. He always works        [hard, hardly, harder] at school, so the teachers like him too. I’m lucky to have a friend like Alastair.
