Read the following text carefully.

Hello! My name is Alice Moore but my friends

call me Ally. I was born in San Francisco, in the
American State of California, on 3rd July 1999,
but we moved to Miami when I was two. Miami
is located on America’s Atlantic coast.
There are five people in my family, including
me. I have two brothers: Mike, who’s ten years
old and in the 5th grade, and Andy, who is only
one year old. My mother is a housewife and my
father is a lawyer.
I like living in Miami. It’s a really nice place to live. There are many beaches
and lots of things to do and visit: a Zoo, a Seaquarium, the Parrot Jungle,
museums and shopping centres. I often go to the beach with my friends. We
can get some exercise or just enjoy some time in the sun!
In Miami there is a lot of fresh air and open space and I like it.
We often visit Disneyworld in Orlando, which is a really big city about
200 miles from Miami. The theme parks there are amazing! My favourite are
the Hollywood studios, because they take you into the magic world of films.
Last time I was at the Narnia attraction and I saw how the films T h e
Chronicles of Narnia were created.
