Paul: I work for a computer company in San Francisco, but I live in Oakland.
Professor: So, you travel from Oakland to San Francisco every day?
Paul: Well, I get up at six o`clock and I take a shower and I get dressed. I don´t see my
daughters. They´re in bed.
Paul: No, I don´t have time. I have to get the train to San Francisco at seven thirty.
Paul: The train usually arrives at quarter after eight. Then I walk from the station to
work. That´s about a half an hour.
Paul: At 9:00 I start work, and I have a coffee. I drink about six cups of coffee a day.
Paul: I finish work at 5:30. Then I walk to the station again to get the train.
Professor: Do you have dinner with your family?

home until quarter to eight.

the TV.

My favorite time of day is 10 o´clock at night, because it´s when I finish practice, and I
can start to relax and enjoy the evening. My favorite day of the week is Thursday
because I don´t work on Friday, so for me the weekend begins on Thursday night. My
favorite month is July because it´s the month when I have my vacation. My favorite
season is the spring. One of my hobbies is gardening and my garden is really beautiful
in the spring. My favorite holiday is Christmas. My family lives very far away, and it´s
the only time when I can see them.
