On weekdays I usually get up at seven o’clock. I make my bed, open the window and do my morning exercises. Then I go to the bathroom where I clean my teeth, shave and wash myself. If I have enough time I take a cold and hot shower. It really wakes me up and makes my body feel good. After bathroom I go back to my room where I dress and brush my hair. In ten minutes I am ready for breakfast. It may be a cup of tea or coffee and a sandwich.
After breakfast I put on my coat, take the bag and go to school. As I live not far from school it takes me only five or seven minutes to get there. I don’t want to be late for the first lesson so I come to school a few minutes before the bell. I leave my coat in the cloakroom and go upstairs to the classroom.
The lessons begin at eight o’clock in the morning and they are over at half past one in the afternoon. After classes I go home and have dinner there. I usually have something substantial for dinner, for example, cabbage soup for the first course, hot meat or fish with some vegetables for the second. Then I drink a cup of tea or milk. Sometimes when I have to stay at school after classes I go to the school canteen and have dinner there.
After dinner I have a short rest, read newspapers, make some telephone calls and go to the bakery. Then I do my homework. We study many subjects at school and it takes me three or even more hours to do the homework. Sometimes I go to the library to get ready to my practical classes or to write a report. As a rule I have no free time on my week-days.
Eight o’clock is supper time in our family. We all get together in the kitchen, then go to the sitting room and watch TV, read books or discuss different problems. Twice a week I go to school in the evening to play volleyball. I am a member of the school volleyball team and we have our training rather late.
At about eleven at night I go to bed.
THE DAY’S WORK BEGINS
Anna’s alarm clock rang at a quarter past seven as usual. And, as usual, she lay in bed for another ten minutes. Then she got up, washed, cleaned her teeth and combed her hair. Then she had breakfast.
Anna likes to go to work by bus. It takes her twenty-five minutes to get to work. When she got off the buss she walked to her office. She got there at a quarter to nine. Fifteen minutes later one of the office girls opened the main door. The first customer arrived. The day’s work began.
Anna likes to take things easy, but Susan is always in a hurry, sometimes late and often absent-minded. Classes at the business college usually start at nine fifteen, except on Fridays, when the first class begins at ten.
Michael, her brother, usually bangs on her bedroom door at eight o’clock. He did so this morning. “All right,” said Susan, but she just turned over and went to sleep again. At half past eight Michael went upstairs and banged on his sister’s door again. Susan jumped out of bed, washed quickly and run back to her room. She run downstairs to the kitchen, but looked at her watch and understood that she didn’t have time for breakfast. “Bye, mother,” she said and run out. Mrs. Bond didn’t washing up. She had ten minutes before she had to leave for work. She sat down and smoked a cigarette. Suddenly the house seemed very lonely. She was glad that she had a job. Not because she needed money but she did not want to be alone all day in her house.
