If there is not enough information to answer Right (A) or Wrong (B), choose Doesn t say (C). For questions 21 27, mark A, B or C on your answer sheet. Kieron Williamson When Kieron Williamson was five years old, he and his family went on holiday to the seaside. One day, he saw some boats on the sea. He asked his parents for some paper and began to draw them. At first his pictures were very simple. But they quickly got better, and after a few days he began adding trees and houses to them. His parents were very surprised because no one in Kieron s family draws or paints, and before the holiday, Kieron was not especially interested in art. After the holiday Kieron continued drawing, and began painting as well. He never liked the paints that children usually use, and has always preferred expensive oil paints. Kieron sold his first pictures when he was seven and is now popular all over the world. He has made enough money to buy a new house in the countryside for his family. Kieron goes to a local school, and loves computer games and playing football. At one time, he asked to have lessons at home, to give himself more time to paint. However, his parents didn t agree. They thought it was important for him to have a normal life and to spend time with his friends every day. 5 Turn over
