I usually get up at about seven o’clock and go running for half an hour. Then I feel
ready for the day. I leave the house at about eight thirty and arrive at the hospital
by nine. Currently, I’m seeing lots of children with flu. After work I often walk
home. Sometimes friends come round for dinner, but I need eight hours of sleep a night
so I’m always in bed by eleven o’clock.

Model answer:
Our town festival is once a year at the end of August. It’s always great fun because
there are lots of different events. For example there are parades for children with
colourful costumes. Then in the evening there is a big party with dancing and food.
The food is always delicious. Lots of local shops sell food and you can try some of
our traditional dishes. But my favourite part of the whole event is at midnight when
there are lots of fireworks. They light the whole night sky up, and then it’s time to
go home.
