Task 1. Read about Tom's normal day and then answer Yes or No for each question. Every day Tom wakes up at five thirty when his alarm clock rings. He gets up and then goes to
the bathroom. After that he makes breakfast for him and his wife, Betty. Tom is a train driver
and he wears a uniform.
Tom starts work at seven o'clock and drives trains on the London Underground. He usually
works in the mornings from Monday to Friday. At noon he stops work for half an hour to have
his lunch. He eats cheese and tomato sandwiches which Betty makes for him, and drinks a bottle
of milk. After lunch he works until four o'clock and then he goes home. In the evening he plays
with his baby son, Ben, and watches TV with Betty. At ten thirty they all go to bed because they
are very tired - and because they get up so early in the morning!

Utility varies between different people and between different nations. A vegetarian does not want meat, but may rate the utility of bananas very highly, while a meat-eater may prefer steak. A mountain-republic like Switzerland has little interest in submarines, while maritime nations rate them highly.

The utility of a commodity is also related to the quantity which is available to the consumer. If paper is freely available, people will not be so interested in buying too much of it. If there is an excess of paper, the relative demand for paper will go down.
