REARRANGE THE JUMBLED SENTENCES TO COMPOSE A TEXT ABOUT ANDREW'S WORKIND DAY. ADD SOME DETAILS TO SOME OF THE POINTS.

PETER'S WORKING DAY.

Peter's working day is rather tight. He wakes up at seven o'clock. He opens the window, makes his bed and does his morning exercises. He likes to take a cold shower every morning, so he puts on his slippers and goes to the bathroom. He rubs himself hard with a towel and soon he feels quite warm. Then Peter shaves, brushes his teeth, washes his face and goes back to the bedroom to dress and comb his hair. In half an hour he is ready for breakfast. As a rule he does not prepare breakfast, his mother does it for him, but if she leaves home early he prepares it himself. For breakfast Peter usually has eggs, sausage or cheese sandwiches and a cup of coffee or tea. During break­fast he listens, to the news or music on the radio.

At eight o'clock Peter leaves for the university. His university is far from his home, so he goes there by bus or by tram. His classes begin at half past eight. As a rule, Peter has three or four classes a day. At two o'clock he has a bite to eat at the university canteen.

Peter never gets home before five or six. He usually stays at the University to study in the lab or in the library. When he gets home he has his dinner. He usually has a little rest and then at seven he sits down to do his homework. It takes him a couple of hours to get it done. In the evening after supper Peter likes to sit down in the chair with a good book or watch TV. Sometimes he goes to the cinema or visits his friends or they come to visit him. He has a lot of friends and they often spend time together, especially on Sundays.

As soon as he feels sleepy he brushes his teeth, goes to the bedroom, sets his alarm clock for seven and goes to bed. Although Peter is a hard-working student he never has time to do all he wants to do.

MY COLLEGE.

I am a student of Stryi State Agrarian College. My college is situated in Lviv Street. There are three departments at our college: the department of mechanization of agriculture (the oldest ones) and farming, the department of electrification of agriculture, the department of book keeping, law and realtor.

The history of the college began in 1945. There were only twenty students and six teachers there. Now it is one of the largest colleges in our region. There are more than one thousand students and nearly one hundred lecturers in our college.

There are three teaching buildings, three hostels and large workshops. There are many modern well-equipped laboratories and lecture rooms in my college. We have a library on the ground floor where we can take our text-books and a large reading hall on the second floor where we can prepare for our lectures.

There is a large gymnasium and sports ground in our college. We have well-equipped computer classes. In these classes the students of our college get computer skills. In the workshops the students have their practical training and gain skills in their future profession.

The territory of our college is very large, beautiful and picturesque. You can see many trees, flower-beds, a small zoo there. On the territory you can also see sheep, goats, horses and pony.

I am proud of my college. I like to study there.
