MID- TERM- EXAM

NAME: _____________________ DATE:______________________

READING:

 AN IRISH TEENAGER'S TYPICAL DAY

 My name is Sean O'Brien. I'm fifteen years old, and I'm Irish. I live in Cork. From Monday to Saturday,

my daily routine is always the same. My mum always starts at seven o'clock in the morning when I get

up and wash my face. After that, I do some exercises, put my clothes on, and prepare my school bag.

Then I go downstairs and have breakfast with my mum and dad. I usually have a sandwich and a cup of

tea, but I never have sausages and eggs. After breakfast, I always make my bed, and then I go to

school. I stay at school from eight o'clock in the morning till half past two in the afternoon.  On Mondays

and Wednesdays, I stay later because I have drum lessons. On the other days, I often play football with

my friends. When I get home, I sometimes help my mother in the house. I usually do my homework from

five to seven o'clock in the evening. At around seven o'clock we all have dinner together. After dinner, I

usually watch some TV and chat with my family. At 10 o'clock I read a book and go to bed.  After such a

busy day, I always feel sleepy and ready for my comfortable bed!
