My Day off
When a school-girl I always envied those students who went to school five but not six days a week, as we did. So you may guess, I had the only day off — Sunday. On Sunday, I didn’t have to hurry anywhere, that’s why, I got up at nine or ten o’clock. I wasn’t an early riser. I did my bed, washed myself and went to the kitchen. In the kitchen the table had already been laid and I always had something tasty on Sunday: fried potatoes, meat salad or my favourite apple-pies. After breakfast, if the weather was sunny, I usually didn’t stay indoors, I went to see my friends. We often played volleyball or basket-ball in the yard and in winter if there was much snow out-of-doors we went skating and skiing in the woods.
But sometimes the day happened to be rainy and gloomy. I preferred to be in watching TV, listening to music, reading books, speaking over the phone or just lying on the sofa idling away the time. Some of my classmates could watch all TV-programmes from morning till night, but I think it’s rather boring, and I always felt sorry for those TV-addicts. It’s much more interesting to play a game of chess with your grandfather, or help your mother about the house, or argue with your father about the latest events at home and abroad. In the evening, when all the family were together, we had some tea with a cake or biscuits, we listened to my younger sister playing the piano, sometimes we sang folk songs.Every Sunday, when I went to bed, I was thinking that the day had flashed past and the next week would bring new problems and their solution.

Read the story. Then complete the questions.
It was Labor Day. Patty and Michael went away from the last weekend of the summer. On Saturday they were in North Beach. Everything was terrible! The weather was cool and cloudy. No one was in the water. The beaches were dirty. There were cups and cans and bottles on the sand and near the garbage cans. Their motel was near a highway, so it was noisy. That evening, the French restaurant near the motel was terrible. Their table was near the kitchen; it was hot and noisy. And the food was awful. Patty said, “I can cook better than this!” Michael was upset with the bill. It was $85. On Sunday Patty and Michael drove to South Beach. Everything was different! The weather was sunny and hot. The beach was sandy and white. Patty and Michael were in the clear water all afternoon. Their motel was on a quiet street near the beach. That evening they were happy with the Mexican restaurant near the motel. Their table was near the window, so they could see the beach. The food was delicious, and the bill was only $32.
