Something very strange happened to Tamara. She never knew she had a twin sister until she
started university!
Tamara was born in Mexico. Her parents could not look after her so she went to live with a
family in Manhattan, USA.

3. When Tamara was twenty years old, she started university in Long Island. She enjoyed her
university life. But one day she was walking home from class, and a student smiled at her.
“Hello Adriana!” said the student. “I’m not Adriana,” said Tamara.
This happened to Tamara again and again. People Tamara didn’t know kept calling her Adriana.
It was very strange. One day, when a woman called her Adriana, Tamara asked “Why do you
keep calling me Adriana?”
The woman replied, “You look like my friend Adriana. You have the same face and the same
hair. Is Adriana your sister?” Tamara said that she did not have a sister called Adriana. But she
was interested in this girl Adriana. Finally she asked someone for Adriana’s email address.
When Tamara wrote to Adriana, she found out that they both had the same birthday, they
looked the same and both of them were from Mexico. When Tamara went to live with the
family in Manhattan, Adriana moved to Long Island to live with a family there. It had to be

home up the Woostock Road, and
so the road is very crowded. Traffic

to use the Ring Road instead,

London road, and this has blocked
all traffic going west to the Ring

7. Road. Instead you should go to the
Plain roundabout. Then go through
Headington, because the traffic
there is very light today because of
the strike at the hospital. Then you
should go on to the ring road and
drive to the east.

go slowly on the Banbury road near
Summertown, and if you are going

should wait for half an hour. A
cyclist was knocked off his bicycle
on Magdalen bridge, and the road
is blocked while the police find out
what happened.

Pear Tree roundabout are clear,
and traffic is moving well.
Remember to drive carefully, and
