My Working Day

I'd like to describe you my working day. All the days looked very much the same.

On weekdays I usually get up at 7. I do my morning exercises. Then I wash my face and hands and clean my teeth. At half past seven I am ready to have my breakfast. I like to have a light breakfast. After breakfast I leave for school.

My school is not far from my house. It takes me 10 minutes to get to school. Lessons begin at 8:30 a.m. and finish at about 3 p. m. Six or seven lessons a day is the ordinary timetable. Twice a week I stay at school after classes to play basketball.

When I come home I have dinner. Then I rest a little. Sometimes I read a book or talk to my friends over telephone.

After that I start doing my home assignments. Twice a week I go to have private lessons in Maths in order to improve my knowledge.

As a rule, I finish doing my homework at about 9 o'clock. But one day a week is not so busy. This is Thursday. On Thursday 1 usually help my mother. Sometimes I do shopping or pick up clothes at the cleaners.

I usually have supper at 7 o'clock p. m. Then I go on with my work. At 11 o'clock I go to bed.

 

My Flat

We have a nice flat in a new block of flats. Our flat is on the fourth floor. It has all modern conveniences: central heating, gas, electricity, cold and hot water, a lift and a chute to carry rubbish down. There are three rooms, a kitchen, a bathroom and a hall in our flat. The living-room is the largest and most comfortable room in the flat. In the middle of the room we have a square-table with six chairs round it. To the right of the dinner-table there is a wall-unit which has several sections: a sideboard, a wardrobe and some shelves.

At the opposite wall there is a piano and stool before it. Between the two large windows there is a little table with a colour TV set on it. Near the TV set there are two cosy armchairs. A small round table, a divan-bed and a standard lamp are in the left-hand corner. This small table is for newspapers and magazines. My father is used to having a rest sitting on this divan-bed reading books, newspapers, magazines or watching TV.



The bedroom is smaller than the living-room and not so light as there is only one window in it. In this room there are two beds with a bedside-table between them. An alarm-clock and a small lamp with a pink lamp-shade are on the table. In the left-hand corner there is a dressing-table with a big mirror.. In this room we have a built-in wardrobe with coat-hangers to-hang clothes on. There is a thick carpet on the floor and plain light-brown curtains on the window.

The third room is my study. It is not large but very cosy. There isn't much furniture in it, only the most necessary. It has a writing-table and an armchair before it. In the right-hand corner there is a bookcase full of books, magazines and newspapers. A small table with a radio is standing in the left-hand corner. Near it there is a sofa with some cushions. In my opinion, the study is the best room in our flat.

But the warmest place in our flat is the kitchen, I think — the place where the whole family gathers every evening not only to have supper together, but also to speak and rest. I like the English proverb: "My home is my castle" because my flat is, indeed, my castle.

 

5. Write a conversation about a flight from Moscow to Paris between Anna and stewardess. Discuss today`s lunch and use all phrases that you want.
