1 drive: "Drive" is the right answer here. To "drive" is to direct or control something, usually a vehicle (car, bus, lorry, etc.). Example: "You can't drive a car unless you have a licence".
2 left: "Left" is the term Eva uses here. Most people write with their "right" hand, but around 10% of people write with their LEFT hand. In the majority of countries, traffic drives on the right-hand side of the road, but in some countries, people drive on the left. Countries where people drive on the left include Britain, India, Australia, Japan, and South Africa.
3 mostly: "Mostly" is the correct answer. The term "mostly" means "generally", "mainly", or "the majority of (the time)". Eva is saying that the majority of British people travel by horse most often! You should note that this isn't entirely true. Here's another example of "mostly" in action: "I mostly listen to rock music, but sometimes I listen to jazz".
4 request: "Request" is the right term here. When we "make a request", we "ask for something" politely, or formally. To do something "at the Queen's request" is to do something "because the Queen has asked you to". Example: "At Bruno's request, all the staff came to the office on Sunday".
5 drink: "Drink" is the word which Eva sings here. To "drink" is to consume a liquid. In the context of Eva's song, "to drink" means specifically "to drink alcohol". Note that this verb is irregular: drink/drank/drunk. When someone drinks too much alcohol, they are described as "drunk".
6 awful: "Awful" is the correct word here. "Awful" means "horrible", "terrible", or "very bad". Eva is saying that the food eaten in Britain is disgusting! Another example: "Horatio is an awful singer: glasses smash when he sings!".
7 skies: The correct answer here is "skies". "Skies" is the plural of "sky", and both terms refer to the atmosphere above the earth, where we can see the sun and clouds. Eva sings that the skies above Britain are grey, meaning that it often rains in Britain.
8 grey: "Grey" is the term which Eva sings here. By saying that the skies in Britain are grey, she is saying that it is rarely sunny in Britain. Note that this word is written as either "grey" or "gray" in British English, but always "gray" in American English.

Select the TRUE statement(s) about Britain, based on Eva's song!
There may be more than one correct choice!

Select the TRUE statement(s) about Britain, based on Eva's song!

There may be more than one correct choice!
This statement is not true. Eva sings that the "skies are grey" in Britain. Grey skies are the opposite of sunny skies! Grey skies are cloudy, and they often lead to rain, not sunshine.
This statement is true. In Eva's song, British food is described as "so awful". The term "awful" means "terrible", "horrible", or "disgusting".
This is not a good choice. Eva sings that the British "drive on the left", which means that their cars advance on the left of the road, not the right like in the USA and many other countries. However, this does not mean that they are bad drivers!
This is a true statement. Eva sings "we drink all day", meaning that British people drink a lot (of alcohol, presumably)!
