4. Read a short extract from the book Granny by Anthony Horowitz.

1) What present did Jordan (Joe) get from his granny? (reading for specific information)

Joe was sitting between his uncle David and one of his cousins. There were about fifteen people in the room. Joe looked around. Granny was sitting opposite Joe. She was smiling. Joe gazed at her. Was he imagining or was there something strange about Granny’s smile? It seemed that she was enjoying some secret joke. He thought that she was looking out of the window but now he realized that she was looking at him. “This is for you, Jordan.” His father handed him a present. He read on the top of the box ‘TO JORDAN. LOVE FROM GRANNY’.

There were many presents for Joe under the tree but he was looking forward to Granny’s present. He suddenly felt ashamed¹. A moment ago he was looking at his Granny and thought that she was some sort of monster! But she was just a kind old lady. And she loved him. What he liked best of all was robots. And when Granny asked him what he wanted for Christmas*, he said he wanted a robot. He saw one in Hamleys, it was about half a meter high. It could walk, talk, lift and carry things, all by radio-control. And there it was now in front of him. Joe opened the box.

The robot was the sort of thing you could give to a two-year old. It was made of bright coloured plastic with a stupid painted face. Suddenly Joe realized that everyone was looking at him. They were all thinking the same² thing. A baby toy! “Do you like it, dear?” He heard his Granny’s voice and looked up. And that was when he finally knew. He was right. She did it on purpose³. She knew what he wanted, and she had chosen this baby toy to humiliate⁴ him in front of the family. The worst thing was that Granny knew he knew. And she didn’t care.
