Paragraphs
Every morning I get up at six. The first thing I do is to wash the dishes my family dirtied the day before. Then I cook the breakfast. We eat at about seven fifteen. Usually we hav ebread with butter, sometimes we have rice, or boiled sweet potatoes.
It take me about ten minutes to walk to school, and school begins with an assembly period at seven forty-five. There are fifteen hundred children in our school and so we meet in three separate assemblies:the infant department, the middle department, and the senior department. We always listen attentively to the head mistress then different classes call the roll for the attendance.
We have seven periods from eight to one. We study Mathematics, Geography, History, Music, Art and Crafts, and English. I like English best and next to that, Mathematics. At one we clean up our classroomand close the school.
I go home for lunch, but this time, my sister Patricia gets the meal. We often eat yams with soup and some other dishes. After lunch, I usually sleep for half an hour. In the afternoon, I often play netball. I sometimes skip, run, and jump with the other girls.
At about sic or six thirty we have dinner. Either my sister or I cook it. The meat is simpler than the mid-day meal. We eat fruit or rice, and sometimes we have bread and tea. Then in the evening, I do my homework and go to bed at about ten.

I retired about a year ago. The company had a big party for me and gave me a gold watch for more than thirty years sevice. At the party everyone said to me: “ Retirement is a time to do all the things you didn’t have time to do.” I can’t say that i dislike retirement, but after working for thirty-five years, it’s had to adjust to all this free time.
Just after i retired, my wife, Ped, and I went to visit our children – John Smith in London and Ann in Liverpool. We really had a good time. We enjoyed being together. In fact, John smith invited us to come to live with him. He knowns that living on retirement salary is to easy. But we decided not to live with him.
