28、don. It takes about fifty minutes. Usually, it's so crowded that Ican't find anywhere to sit. I just stand. I'm always tired before I arrive at work. I don't like the underground!I spend all morning checking numbers. Lunch is always simple. I often get a sandwich in a nearby sandwich
29、 shop or I just have some biscuits and a cup of coffee. Then in the afternoon, I return to the paperwork in the office.On Monday nights, I have dance classes, and on Wednesday nights, I go to the gym. I need to do that because I don't get enough exercise otherwise. On Tuesday and Thursday nights
30、, I have French classes. I work for a French company so I think studying French will help me in my job.I go to the cinema almost every weekend. Sometimes, if the weather forecast is good, my friends and I drive to the countryside for a weekend break. We like to visit nice, quiet places far away from
31、 the city and go walking where there are no shops, crowds or the tube. That fresh air is so good for my lungs. I love it.Paul lives in a small village in the north of England.I usually get up at four o'clock every morning when it's still dark. I live and work on the farm so I don't need
32、to travel. After a big breakfast in my house, I walk out of the front door and I'm already at work.There are many things to do on the farm all day. We don't have the same work hours that office workers in the city have. We do jobs when they need to be done and that could be early in the morn
33、ing or late at night. I have cows, sheep, pigs and chickens on my farm. I have to make sure they are free of sickness. I also grow wheat and vegetables so there are many things to look after.In the evening, I like to play with my children. I have two children, a boy and a girl. They are six and eigh
34、t years old. I also like to study. Right now I am studying Chinese by distance learning. I am very interested in China and it's my dream to see the Great Wall one day.I love movies. My wife calls me a “ movie fan . But there isn't a cinema in my village so I don't get the chance to go ve
35、ry often. I go about twice a year, usually when I go to London withmy family. We take a weekend break there when I am not too busy on the farm. My wife loves looking in the clothes shops and I like all the crowds and the noise. I also like to buy a few cigars. Unfortunately, my wife isn't as fond of them as I am. My son and daughter love to ride on London's red buses and they especially love to go on the tube!
