The summative assessment for unit 5-6 Reading

Task 1. Read the text and choose the right answer to complete the sentence.
A package tour I will never forget
My name is Altyn. I like travelling to different countries. Last year I decided to spend some days in Europe. I bought a ten-day tour online and one return ticket to Spain and Italy, then I began packing my suitcase. My friends told me not to forget to take the sunglasses and sunscreen because it was too hot in Spain and Italy.
The next day, in the afternoon, I came to the Nur-Sultan International Airport a little earlier, because check-in for the flight started two hours before. The plane landed at Madrid Airport and a travel agent met us near the arrival gate. We got on the minibus and went to the hotel where the travel agent informed us about late checkout.
In the morning I began my tour in Madrid. I visited the Prado Museum, the main national art museum in central Madrid. The Prado Museum has a collection of more than 5,000 pictures. I paid some money for taking the museum's audio guide to tour the museum alone.
After the noisy Madrid streets, we went to the Buen Retiro Park, a place in the heart of Madrid where you can relax. The beautiful landscape of the park and the pool in the center of the park made us feel relaxed.
The next point of our tour was Italy. We took the train to get to Rome, the city with a thousand tourist attractions and rich history. In Rome we visited the Roman Colosseum, the place where the ancient people went to have some fun. We bought one-day hiking tour in the Italian Alps, there we stayed at a village hotel with a fantastic view which was difficult to forget.
