Piers Read the extract from the book and mark the statements True, False or Not St ated The travel book "We're doing WHAT for Summer Vacation?" tells the exciting an d often humorous story of a young American girl named Ali who journeyed across Borneo with her parents and older brother one summer. We got a taxi to go to our hotel in Kota Kinabalu, and the first thing that I noticed was that the steering wheel was on the wrong side of the car! They also drive on th e wrong side of the road. This felt so weird to me. Dad was used to this, because th ey drive on the wrong side of the road in England too. As we drove to our hotel, I l ooked out the window and saw lots of people walking on the streets. The women w ere dressed in headscarves, longsleeved shirts and long skirts, and the men were dressed in shirts and long pants. It was very noisy, with old buses and taxis everywhere, and people shouting and hon king. There were lots of old buildings and shops with signs everywhere that we cou ldn't read. The local guy helped us carry our bags to our hut. Our hut was a tree house built on the side of the jungle. It was a oneroom wooden hut with a double bed and bunk beds that were equipped with mosqu ito nets. I had never slept under a mosquito net, but I was very thankful to have so mething to keep off the bugs and mosquitoes. One wall of the tree house slid open t o a little balcony hanging over the jungle. The drop from the balcony was very, ver y far. It made me nervous to lean on the railing. It was like we were in the top of th e trees. The bathroom in the tree house was outside, so when we went to the bathro om or took a shower, the roof was open to the trees. It was definitely not the really nice hotel that I was expecting, but it was pretty cool. I had never lived in a real tre e house before! After hiking about three hours, we came across the most amazing waterfall that I h ad ever seen in my life. It reminded me of something out of a movie! It was enorm ous, and the waterfall sounded like a train because it was falling from so high! It fe lt like we had found a lost treasure because no one was at this amazing waterfall bu t us! Zak and I jumped into the water and it was freezing cold, but felt great after the lon g, hot trek. Our family started climbing up the rocks to the waterfall. It had about fi ve different levels. We were playing in the water on the lowest level when we notic ed that Zak was gone. We looked around and discovered that he had managed to cl imb through the jungle on his own and get several levels up above us. He was reall y high up! Zak shouted down to us, "Y'all come up here! It is awesome!" Extracts from We're doing WHAT for Summer Vacation? by Cindy Davis and Ali Rollason (AuthorHouse, 2013) 1. Ali was travelling across Borneo with her family. True False Not Stated 2.
