Would you tell your friends? Some lottery winners don’t want the newspapers to know their names, but they usually share the news with their families and friends But one winner hasn’t told anyone We interviewed her last week We can’t tell readers the woman’s real name, so we've called her ‘Nicola’ Nicola has got a fortune in the bank, but no one knows about it She won £2 million in the lottery three months ago, but she didn’t want the money to change her life, so she didn’t tell anyone: not even her husband! Nicola didn’t want to tell him because she didn’t want him to leave his job Nicola’s husband didn’t use to work He stayed at home for nearly four years and watched TV all day! Eventually he found a job, and now he’s a much nicer and happier person ‘That’s why I decided not to tell him about the money,’ Nicola said ‘I was afraid it would change our lives He would have used the lottery money as an opportunity to stop work again I don’t want him to be lazy and unhappy again I didn’t want to ruin the life that we’ve got now.’ So how does Nicola keep her secret? Nicola still has a job, but now she doesn’t go to work every day She tells her husband that she's doing more of her work at home The family go out together a lot more and they've got new clothes She pretends that she's managed to save the money for these things ‘Are you happy?’ we asked her ‘Yes,’ Nicola answered 'I don’t have to worry about money now, and that’s nice But nothing else has changed Sometimes I buy things secretly, but I don’t spend a lot of money We don’t need glamorous clothes and expensive holidays.’ ➒ ➓ Read the text Are the sentences true or false?

In Paris, Valfierno found a very talented forger called Yves Chaudron He asked Chaudron to paint six copies of the Mona Lisa When he had finished, these six copies headed for the USA When the forgeries had left France, Valfierno set out to steal the real painting He hired a burglar called Vincenzo Perugia Perugia pretended to be a worker at the Louvre Museum He easily took the Mona Lisa off the wall Nobody asked him any questions Valfierno paid Perugia plenty of money, and he told Perugia he could keep the real painting Valfierno only wanted the world to know it had been stolen He wanted to sell the forgeries to six buyers, who all thought they were getting the real painting It was a brilliant plan! None of the six buyers got professional advice about their painting If they had asked experts to look at it, they would have known they had bought a forgery ➒ Valfierno probably earned more than two million dollars by selling his six forgeries Perugia, the thief, made a mistake He tried to sell the real painting He was arrested and sent to prison The real Mona Lisa was eventually returned to the Louvre Valfierno continued his life of crime, and the six buyers never said a word! ➓ Read the text Are the sentences true or false?
