Each of the words in bold is in the wrong place. Write the correct words on the lines. I haven't got a (1) quarter
but I've got a clock on
my wall and it says it's 12 o'clock. I have lunch at one (2) seconds
That's in one hour, or 60 (3) o'clock
And there are 60 (4) watch
in a minute, so that's 3,600
seconds from now. And (5) hour
an hour after lunch,
at half (6) to
one, I have a sleep, so that's another 1,800
seconds. I usually sleep for two hours. That's 120 minutes or 7,200
seconds. A (7) half
of an hour later, at about quarter
(8) minutes
four, I often have an apple. One of the
visitors gives it to me. A quarter of an (9) past
is 15
minutes. That's 900 seconds. So, if my maths is right, I get my apple in
about 13,500 seconds. It's true I'm just an old donkey called Ned, but
Everyone knows that tea is the most popular drink in Britain. It's even more popular than coffee, which is favoured throughout Europe and America.
The Dutch brought the first tea to Europe in 1610. But it was not until 1658 that the first advertisement for tea appeared in a London newspaper. At that time a pound of the cheapest tea cost about one-third of a skilled worker's weekly wages. Tea was guarded by the lady of the house and kept in special containers, often with a lock and carefully doled out by the teaspoon.
By 1750 tea had become the principal drink of all the classes in Britain. Later, tea-drinking developed into a fashionable social ritual. Tea parties were popular at home and soon the ritual of "afternoon tea" was firmly established.
Nowadays, throughout the homes, tea shops and hotels of Britain, the custom of tea-time continues. Tea in Britain is brewed in a teapot. Then the one spoonful of tea per person and one for the pot is added.
Most people in Britain prefer a rich, strong cup of tea with milk, and sugar is sometimes added to taste.
Well
Sunday is my favorite day because I don't have classes.
I don't have any homework! I usually get up early,
but I stay in bed for about an hour! I take it
my laptop and Check my email. I sometimes
send text messages to my friends in bed or chat with them online.
I'm going to eat
when I get hungry and want Breakfast!
After Breakfast I go to a meeting
to meet my friends. We
we usually ride our bikes to the Park. We drive around and we have a lot of them
fun! Sometimes we play football or other games. Often we
forget lunch!
And also
early evening. We have a big dinner,
and then I watch TV with my family. I go to bed around 10 o'clock
but I read in bed for half an hour before I went to bed.
I'm turning it off
my light and go to bed.
