Good Luck.
Britain's royal family [released / release] the first [official / office] photos of Prince George on Sunday. The photos are a little [difference / different] because a royal photographer didn't [photo / take] them. The photos came from the [private / privacy] family album of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (William and Kate). George's grandfather Michael Middleton took the pictures. One photo [shows / showing] one-month-old George with his happy parents. They are all [stands / standing] under a tree. Another [snip / snap] includes the family dog. Portraits of royal babies have always been taken in royal palaces [by / at] professional photographers. The photographer makes a special studio and background. Prince George's photos [break / destroy] this tradition.

Prince George is [third / three] in line to the British throne. This [means / meaning] he will be king after his grandfather (Prince Charles) and his father die. Prince William said he is [enjoyed / enjoying] every minute [of / for] being a father, but is looking [backward / forward] to when his son sleeps all night. He even joked that he wanted to go back [at / to] work so he could get some sleep. William told reporters he is a [hands-on / head-on] father. He changed George's very first nappy (diaper) but said his wife did most of the work in the [middle / centre] of the night. William said his son reminded him of [himself / him] when he was a baby. He said of his son: "He wriggles around quite a lot, and he doesn't want to go to sleep that much, which is a little [pit / bit] of a problem."
