Read the passage and decide whether the statements (1-7) are TRUE or FALSE. Mr. Alex Fraser lived his whole life in a small town in the north of England. He never left the house where he was born, never married, never went on holiday and had no friends. He worked in a local factory for over forty years but even the people who had worked with him for years knew very little about him. He wore the same old clothes year in year out, and although he shopped regularly at the local store he bought only the most basic foodstuffs, never changed he purchases from one week to the next. So when he died last month, neighbors and local people were astonished to learn that Mr. Fraser was not just a rich man, he was in fact a millionaire! He had no money in the bank or invested anywhere but in the various drawers, cupboards and boxes in his house there were hundreds and thousands of banknotes and coins. It took the police over two week to clear the house, and bank clerks spent just as long counting all the money. ‘’ We had absolutely no idea that he had so much money’’ one of his neighbors said. ‘’In fact, we used to feel sorry for him, we thought he was a poor old man who was unable to afford anything better for himself!’’
