Q3
Read the following extract from a novel and then list four facts from the text about George.
The doorbell rang. Someone must have answered it, because moments later I heard
George's nasal tones in the hallway.
"So lovely to be here!" he cried, his voice carrying easily across the living room.
"Did you invite him?" I
hissed, staring desperately at Rosa.
"I could hardly leave him out," she said coolly. "It would have been too obvious."
He entered the room. His garish purple
suit and elaborate hairstyle made him stand
out sharply from the other guests. "
George, darling," Rosa cooed. "You made it."
"Rosa!" he said, presenting her with a bottle of cheap-looking wine. "And Freddie,"
he said to me with a smirk, extending a greasy hand adorned with several
gaudy rings.
"Good to see you."
"You too," I said, forcing a smile and letting go of his hand quickly. "Drink?"
"Oh, go on then," said George, "I'd love a nice whisky, if you have any?"
"Nothing but the best for you, George," I replied through gritted teeth.
