Hello. My name is Tim, and today I want to tell you about my daily routine.

I usually wake up at 7 o'clock, but I don't get up right away. I like staying in bed for an extra ten or fifteen minutes. When I finally get out of bed, I go to the washroom, wash up, get dressed, and brush my hair. Then, I go to the kitchen. Usually, I have toast with butter and a cup of tea for breakfast.

After I finish my breakfast, I wash the dishes and brush my teeth. Then, I'm ready to go to work! I'm a mechanic. I work from 9 to 8. My job is difficult, but I like it because I like working with vehicles.

After work, I usually go home, but sometimes, I visit my parents.

After dinner—at home or at my parents' house—I like to relax on the couch. I usually watch TV for an hour, or I just text my friends on my phone. These days I am reading an e-book about machines. I know that many people are more active than me after work, but I am on my feet all day, so I like to take it easy in the evening. I usually fall asleep around 11 p.m.

a) 7 o'clock.

b) 6:05.

c) 6:10 or 6:15.

2. What does Tim have for breakfast?

a) toast with butter and a cup of tea

b) eggs and bacon

c) coffee and waffles

3. What’s Tim’s job?
