READING
Mr. Miller
I’m an English teacher and I have a big family, so I have a very busy daily routine! First, I get up
every day at six o’clock, get washed and dressed, and leave for work by seven-thirty. I get to school
at eight o’clock. I prepare my lessons and then teach until noon. The other teachers and I always eat
lunch and talk together in the teachers’ room. I teach again in the afternoon and then I correct my
students’ homework and tests. After I get back home, I help my kids with their homework. I have
three kids in elementary school. Their names are Mathew, Jon and Suzie. Then, I do some exercise,
eat dinner with my family and watch TV before I go to bed at about ten o’clock. We love to watch
travel shows. Finally, I read in bed for a few minutes before I fall asleep.

Ms. Lucy
Well, I almost always get up very early, at about five-thirty. I get up early because I like to go
jogging along the beach and watch the sun rise. Later, after breakfast, I go to work. I work in a bank
near my home. I don’t drive to work, I take a bus. It only takes about twenty minutes to get to work.
After work, I like to go to my favorite bakery and buy some fresh bread. I get home between five
o’clock and five-thirty. My husband Michael usually makes dinner because he loves to cook. In
fact, he is a chef in a restaurant. His hobby is painting, and my hobby is growing flowers in our
garden. We also have a pet dog called Wolfie. In the evenings we take Wolfie for a walk, and then
get to bed by nine-thirty because we have to get up so early again the next morning.
