T e x t A: MY WORKING DAY

My everyday activities are quite routine. They do not differ much from those of any other student of our country. On week-days I usually get up at 7 o'clock. I make my bed, open the window and do my morning exercises. Then I go to the bathroom where I clean my teeth and wash myself. If I have enough time I take a cold and hot shower. After bathroom I go back to my room where I dress myself and brush my hair. Now I am ready for breakfast. It may be a cup of tea or coffee and a sandwich. After breakfast I put on my coat, take the bag and go to the University. I live not far from the University, so it takes me only five or seven minutes to get there. I don't want to be late for the first pair of lessons so I come here a few minutes before the bell. I leave my coat in the cloakroom and go upstairs to the classroom.

My lessons begin at 8.00 a.m. and they are over at 2.30 p.m. After classes I go home and have dinner there. I usually have something substantial for dinner, for example, cabbage soup for the first course, hot meat or fish with some vegetables for the second one. Then I drink a cup of tea or milk. Sometimes when I have to stay at the University after classes I go to the students' canteen and have dinner there. After dinner I have a short rest, read newspapers, make some telephone calls, go to the bakery. Then I do my homework. We study many subjects at the University and it takes me 3 or even more hours to prepare my homework. Sometimes I go to the library to get ready for my practical classes or to write a report. As a rule I have no free time on my week-days.

Eight o'clock is supper time in our family. We all get together in the kitchen, then go to the sitting room and watch TV, read books or discuss different problems. Twice a week I go to the gymnasium in the evening to play volleyball, I am a member of the University volleyball team and we have our training rather late. At about eleven at night I go to bed.
