Reading and Writing

Read the article about Tom Barry, an international skateboarder. Are sentences 1-7 'Right' or 'Wrong'? If there is not enough information to answer 'Right' or 'Wrong', choose 'Doesn't say'.

Tom Barry is 17, and started skateboarding when he was nine. He grew up in New York where he practised hard and won his first competition when he was 14. He was lucky. A writer from SKATE IT! magazine watched him that day, then wrote an article about him. 'They even made a video of me!' Tom said. 'I left school last year and now the magazine is paying me to practise and to skateboard in international competitions. But I'm not doing this for the money. I'm doing this because it's so much fun!'

Tom has just returned from Japan. Skateboarding is the third most popular sport for boys aged 12-16 in the USA, but in Japan it is less well-known.

'I took my skateboard out onto the city street and the traffic stopped as people watched me!' Tom said. 'A problem for skateboarders in Japan is that there aren't many places where they can practise outside. Skate parks are usually inside big buildings in large cities, so street skating is difficult there. But things are changing. I loved the trip and hope to go back to Japan to skate there again very soon.'
