B. Read the passage below and choose the best answer
ROUTINES
Think about your daily life. Do you follow the same route to work every day? Do you sit in the
same place in class? When you get dressed, do you always put the same leg or arm in first? You
probably do, because we all have routines in our lives.
Routines save time and energy because you can do them without thinking. That's why they are so
important in the morning when your brain isn't active. Here's Jo talking about her morning
routine.
“Oh yes. I always do exactly the same things. I wake up at seven o'clock every morning. I switch
on the radio and listen to the news. Then I go to the loo and brush my teeth. I have a shower and
dry my hair. Then I choose my clothes and I get dressed. I don't eat anything for breakfast. I just
have a cup of coffee. Then I go to work. Yes, it's always the same.”
Routines are very useful, but they also make you uncreative. Sometimes, it's a good idea to break
your routines. Get out of bed on the opposite side. Listen to a different radio station. Take a
different route to work. Eat something different for breakfast. Change your routine. You never
know, it could change your life.
