READING

The cold old house 

I once knew a house,
A cold, old house,
A cold, old house by the sea.
If I were a mouse,
In a cold, old house,
What a cold, old mouse I would be!

I joined the navy 

I joined the navy,
To see the sea.
And what did I see?
I saw the sea.

The wild rover 

I've been a wild rover for many a year,
And I've spent all my money on whisky and beer,
But now I'm returning with gold in great store,
Now I never will play the wild rover no more

And it's no, nay, never,
No nay never, no more,
Will I play the wild rover?
No, never, no more.

READING

Primary colours are red, yellow and blue. If you want to get the secondary colours, you have to mix the primary ones. We have green when we mix yellow and blue; we have orange from red and yellow; and, finally, we have purple with red and blue.

The absence of colour is black and, on the contrary, white is the combination of all the colours. However, it is impossible to get white colour to paint mixing all the colours.

If we have a white crayon, we can mix it with red and we obtain pink.

Brown, is a curious color. It is possible to obtain a large variety of "browns" by mixing different reds, yellows, greens...

1- How many colours do we mention in the text? Is there any other colour in this page that we haven't mentioned?
2- How do we get the secondary colours? Can you explain one?
3- Nowadays, can we buy any colour to paint or do we have to mix some to obtain the colour we want?
4- What is your favourite colour and why? How do we obtain it?
