Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer to each of the following questions:
The country is more beautiful than a town and pleasanter to live in. Many people think so and go to the country for the summer holidays though they can not live there all the year round. Some have a cottage built in a village so that they can go there whenever they can find the time.

English villages are not all alike, but in some ways they are not very different from each other. Almost every village has a church, the round or square tower of which can be seen from many miles around. Surrounding the church is the churchyard where people are buried.

The village green is a wide stretch of grass, and houses or cottages are built round it. Country life is now fairly comfortable and many villages have the water brought through pipes into house.

Most villages are so close to some small towns that people can go there to buy what they can't find in the village shops.
