Ben’s day.
When I woke up this morning, I found my dog, Fox, waiting for me. He wanted me to take him for a walk. I
was too hungry, so first I had breakfast. I had a glass of milk and a piece of toast. Then I washed my teeth
and put on a track suit and a heavy coat, because it was really cold outside. Fox was already impatient. We
both went out, and walked to the park near home. He ran and jumped, and pursued some passers-by. He
also destroyed some pieces of furniture somebody left on the road. I sat on a bench all the time, wishing I
could be inside my warm bed. When my hands were frozen, I decided it was time to go back home. Fox
didn´t want to, but I pulled hard and I managed to take him back. When we arrived at the front door, I
realized I didn’t have my keys with me, so we stayed out in the cold for more than an hour Fox was happy,
but I was late for work!

Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Smith are sisters. Mrs. Wilson lives in a house in Duncan and Mrs. Smith lives in a
condominium in Victoria. One day Mrs. Wilson visited her sister. When her sister answered the door, Mrs.
Wilson saw tears in her eyes. "What's the matter?" she asked. Mrs. Smith said "My cat Sammy died last
night and I have no place to bury him".

She began to cry again. Mrs. Wilson was very sad because she knew her sister loved the cat very much.

sometimes." Mrs. Smith stopped crying and the two sisters had tea together and a nice visit.
