Treasure Island - CEF B1

My name is Jim Hawkins, and I am fifteen years old. My father owned an inn at a quiet place near the sea. The village was fifty miles from Bristol. After his death, I and my mother had to take care of ourselves.
It was September 17 when an old seaman came to the inn. He was tall and strong and he had a big, brown face. There were cuts and marks on his face. A servant was pushing a little cart behind him and there was a heavy chest on the cart.
The seaman looked at the sea and at the inn. “This is a nice place,” he said. “I like the sea. Do a lot of people come here?”
My mother replied, “No, it's sad but true. Only a few people come here.”
“That's good,” the seaman said. Then he called the servant. “Take the chest inside,” he said. “I'll stay at this inn. I'm a plain man and I like plain food. I like rum, too. Bring me a bottle of rum.”

Otto-Classics Graded Readers Series are outstanding classics written by famous writers. The language and vocabulary in the books are controlled and simplified by specialist ELT authors and compilers according to Common European Framework so that they can be easily understood by new learners of English.
Depending on the eight levels from A1 to B2+, the longer stories are divided into a number of chapters and every chapter has its own activities. Some of the activities in the books are meant to be done in pairs. You may work with a partner to solve problems and design projects that reflect not only your own thinking but also new ideas you and your mates will discover by working in groups.
