Pag. 158 ex. 1-2

Sonia is a Dj

Well, my dad starts at half past three in the morning. I know – can you believe that? I have a hot shower to really wake me up and then a very light breakfast – just cereal and some orange juice. I get to the station at about five o’ clock, so that I can talk to my team before I start my show at five o’ clock. I prepare the music the day before, but I check things one more time to make sure. The show is four hours long, but the time seems to go by really fast. After the show, I get the music ready for the next day. I get home after lunch. In the afternoon I go to the gym or play tennis. I go to bed early – of course! It’ s the perfect job for me – people pay me to play my favourite music!

Clark is a writer

I don’ t get up early because I don’ t go out to work. I work at home. I start in the afternoon, after lunch it’ s not good work at home. It can be really boring. I don’ t see other people – I just have my cat to talk to. And it’s not very healthy life, because I sit at my computer all time. When I don’t know what to write, I sometimes get up and go for a long walk, or make a cup of tea. I can listen to music while I work – that’s cool – but I think I’d like a different job. I’m quite interested in being a lawyer, or maybe I can work in a office.
