COMPREHENSION:
Read the passage:working day starts very early. From Monday to Friday I get up at half past three and I have a shower and a cup of coffee, usually fast. I usually leave the house at ten past four because the car always arrives a few minutes early. I get to the studio at about five o'clock and start work. Two hours later, my programme Good Morning Britain starts and finishes at nine o'clock. Then I leave the studio at a quarter past ten. After that, I go shopping and visit some friends. I get home at three o'clock. A woman helps me with the housework and the ironing. I read a newspaper and do some work.
Then my husband gets home at half past five in the evening and I always make lovely evening meals because I’m a very good cook. We stay at home in the evening. We don't go out because I go to bed very early. We usually watch television and then I go to bed at half past eight; I'm usually asleep by nine o'clock.
At weekends, I don't get up until ten o'clock. In the evening, we often see some friends or go to the cinema, but I'm always up early again on Monday morning.
