F. Start of the day

1. If you stay with an English family, what will life be like? We will tell you about life at the Grants' flat in London. During the week, the
day starts at about 7.15. They have breakfast in the kitchen. Tim and Penny Grant always have toast and coffee, but a lot of English people
prefer tea. Charlie, Tim and Penny's son, has orange juice and cereal.
2. Tim and Penny leave the flat at about 8 o'clock. They go to work on the tube. Charlie gets the bus to school. A lot of British people
travel to work by car. The roads are usually very busy, especially during the 'rush hour' — in the morning and at the end of the day.
3. They usually have dinner together, but sometimes Penny works in the evening and sometimes Tim goes to the gym after work. They eat
at about half past seven. After that Tim reads a paper, Charlie does his homework and Penny watches TV. They go to bed at about eleven.
4. At the weekend, Charlie and Tim sometimes go to a football match, and Tim always washes the car. Penny does the housework and Tim
does the shopping at the supermarket near the flat. Sometimes they go to the cinema, or they go for a walk on Hampstead Heath.
5. Sometimes Tim and Penny's friends come to the flat for a meal, or just to say 'hello'. Penny often goes cycling at the weekend. Charlie
spends a lot of time at his friend's flat, and he often argues with his parents when he doesn't help at home!
