John: I wake up at half past five and study company reports in bed. I go to work at half past seven. I never leave the office before nine o'clock at night. I don't go out in the week because I'm too tired. I’m a manager and I read management books in my free time. I usually work at home at the weekend.
Dave: I usually get up at 7.30 on Saturdays and run in the park before breakfast. I'm always bac home by 8.30. My brother Steve is still asleep at the time; he never gets up before ten. He usually ha coffee and toast for breakfast. I never drink coffee so I have orange juice and cereal. My brother calls m a health freak. Most Saturdays I go shopping with my parents. My brother hates shopping, he doesn't like crowds. He is always at home on Saturday. He sometimes plays the guitar in his room or listens to his CDs.
Daisy: My husband is a very rich man so I don't have to work. I think that the best way to spend you time is to travel and see all the "musts" in different countries. The next three years of my life are already; planned. I'm going to Sri Lanka and Nepal, China and Mongolia. As you see I'm not interested in dear old Europe any longer. I've been all around it several times. It has nothing new for me. I'm looking; forward t6 new impressions and experiences. Besides all my friends have already visited most of these places of interest and all the time boast of being there and seeing this and that. It's a shame that I don't have as many souvenirs from all those places as they do. And now, if you excuse me, I must hurry It's the presentation of Tony Foticelli's exhibition tonight. I don't know anything about him but everybody who is somebody will be there.
Unit Six My Flat
We have a nice flat in a new block of flats. Our flat is on the second floor of a five-storeyed building. It has all modem conveniences: central heating, running hot and cold water, electricity, gas.
We have a three-roomed flat which consists of a living-room, a bedroom, a study (which is also my room), a kitchen, a bath-room and a toilet. Our flat has two balconies.
The living-room is the largest and most comfortable one in the flat. In the middle of the room we have a square dinner-table with six chairs round it. To the left 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 a piano stool. To the right there is a low table with color TV-set on it. Opposite the TV-set there are two cozy armchairs. A divan-bed and a standard lamp are in the left-hand corner. In front of the armchairs there is a small round table for newspapers and magazines. There is a thick carpet on the floor. Two pictures hang on the wall above the divan-bed. In the evening we usually draw the curtains across the windows, and a red lampshade gives a warm color to the room.
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, two dressing-tables and a wardrobe. In the corner of the bedroom there is a small color TV-set. On the dressing table there is an alarm-clock and a small lamp with green lamp-shade.
Our study is the smallest room in the flat, but in spite of it, it is very comfortable. There isn't much furniture in it, but there are a lot of shelves full of books. It has a writing table, an armchair and a bookcase too. A small round table with a cassette-recorder is standing in the right-hand comer of the study. There is a small sofa near the wall opposite the bookcase. This room was my father's study, but as I grew older, it has become my room. And in my opinion it is the best room in our flat. My friends used to come to my place to have a chat or to play chess in the evening, and they say my room is very comfortable. I share their opinion.
