Read the following passage then choose the best answer to each question below.

Playing the drums

Beth Jones was only eight years old when she first tried playing the drums. This was during a lunchtime music club at school, which she only went to because it was cold and rainy. Also, her friends were in the playground playing hockey - a sport that Beth hated. Of all the musical instruments that the teacher had in the music room, the drums were the most interesting to Beth. She thought it was cool that there were many different shapes and sizes of drums and she wanted to hit them, to see what they sounded like.

Now Beth is thirteen and gives concerts around the country. She also has her own YouTube channel and gets over a million hits a year. What's amazing is that Beth hasn't ever been to a drum lesson. "You can learn anything on the internet, so I've never felt it was important for me to take classes," explains Beth. Giving concerts wasn't easy for Beth at the beginning because usually she only played drums alone in her bedroom when she came home from school.

At her first concert, she played in a band with adults. She could feel hundreds of pairs of eyes looking at her, and that made her feel frightened. So, does Beth enjoy being famous now? "I didn't plan to be famous," she says. "All I want is to show others what I love. I don't think I'm someone special. I just want everyone to have a great time at my concerts."

How old was Beth when she played the drums for the first time?

What is the writer explaining in the first paragraph?

What does Beth say about drum lessons?

How did Beth feel at her first concert?

What do we learn about Beth in the final paragraph?
