Do they read books in the affernoon?

No, who don't read books in the afternoon

These days things are clearly not like they were when I was young. We (1) didn't have computer games, cable television or the Internet to keep us entertained — we had to amuse (2) ourselves. Even at school we (3) were expected to be outside. We (4) were not allowed to stay indoors. My (5) first primary school was surrounded by a wall. Many of the games we played were based along the wall. “What Time Is It, Mr Wolf?” was the (6) greatest favourite. One person was “it”. He or she had to answer the question “What time is it, Mr Wolf?” They could answer any time they liked, but when the reply was “Twelve o’clock. Dinner time,” we all had to run for the wall. If anyone (7) was caught, they became Mr Wolf, and the game continued. Different schools had (8) their own favourites. Sadly, it seems that some of these games (9) have disappeared.
