What can Tina do?

Well, there are a lot of things she can’t do. Tina can’t drive a car, but she wants to have lessons soon. She can’t speak French but she can speak Italian, her mother’s Italian, and they often go to Italy. Her mother’s really good cook, she can cook really well, not just Italian food, all kinds of food, but Tina can’t cook at all. She just loves eating!

What about the sports? She thinks she’s good at quite a lot of sports. She can play tennis, and ski, sometimes they go skiing in the Italian Alps, and of course she can swim. But musical instruments- no-Tina can’t play any at all-no she’s not musical, but she loves dancing! Of course she can use a computer- all her friends can.
