8. Read the text and write 5—7 questions on it.
Britain’s Tallest Teenager
His nickname is “Stretch” and he can’t even walk through his own front door without bending. 18-year-old Christopher Lister is 2.21 metres tall. And he is still growing. He has always been taller than his school friends. He was 1.21 metres tall when he was four years old. Now he wears size 181 shoes and his parents had to buy an extra-long bed for him and they made the doors in their house bigger.
“When I go out there are always people asking me about my height,” says Christopher. “It is annoying sometimes.” It can also be difficult finding clothes to fit and getting into cars. Chris’s mum and dad are much smaller than him. Chris’s mum is only 1.63 metres tall and his dad is 1.89 metres tall. Doctors aren’t sure why Chris is so tall.
“When I fill in forms and they ask for a description of me I just write down ‘Extra tali’,” he says.
