Burger Queen
She’s 109 years old and she eats only junk food.
Yesterday was Mary Alston’s birthday. She is 109 years old, and she is one of the oldest people in the world. And she only eats junk food.
Mrs. Alston had a party with six generations of her family. Her daughter, Jenny Morgan, who is 85, said, ‘My mother loves chocolate, and eats only popcorn, pizzas and burgers. She never eats fresh food. She says she doesn’t like it.’
Mrs. Alston lives in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. She was born on a farm in Pennsylvania, and worked as a teacher. In 1915 she married James Henry Alston. He died in 1983.
Her granddaughter, Annie, who is 65, said, ‘Grandma gets up every day at six o’clock, and goes to the hairdresser every Friday.’
Annie asked her grandmother what she wanted to eat on her birthday. Mary said, ‘I’d like a cheeseburger and fries!’
a. Match the questions and answers. Complete the sentences.
