1. Introduction


This is Mary. She’s eleven. She’s got long brown hair and brown eyes. Her ears are small and her cheeks are chubby.
She gets up at 7 o’clock in the morning, has a shower, gets dressed and has breakfast. She usually has a toast and coffee. She doesn’t like cheese. Then the girl goes to school. She travels by bus. She has lunch at school with her friends. They sometimes have pizza and milkshake. After the lessons they play in the park and they like flying a kite. Mary goes home at 5pm. She has dinner with her mother and father. Her mother likes cooking! Mary goes to bed at 10pm.
The girl lives in the city. There is a swimming pool next to her house but her school is far. There are lots of shops and supermarkets in her street. There is a café behind her house and Mary goes there at the weekend with her family.
There is a market in front of her house. There are a lot of fruit. She likes eating watermelons and mangoes but she doesn’t like grapes. She likes vegetables.
Now the girl is in her bedroom. It’s big. There are two windows, there is a wardrobe in the room and there is her desk next to the window. There is a chair next to her desk. Now her room is a mess! There are her jeans on the floor and there is one sock on the sofa and one sock on the lamp. Her mother is angry. She says: You can’t go to the park, please tidy up your room! Put those jeans in the wardrobe and find the socks!
Mary likes doing athletics and playing table tennis. Going swimming is fun! But she doesn’t like playing basketball. She is very short!
In the summer Mary would like to go camping with her grandfather! She wouldn’t like to help her grandmother in the garden. It’s boring!
