Waking Up



:Conversation One


.Victor: Turn off the alarm clock. It’s too early to get up

Fiona: Rise and shine! It’s time to get out of bed and get going! You have a full day

.ahead of you at the office


.Victor: I’m not up to a full day. I’m going to call in sick



:Conversation Two


? Ann-Marrie: Why don’t you shave your beard off

Steve: I don’t think that’s a good idea. I might cut off a few gray

. hairs, but I’m too lazy to shave every day

.Ann-Marie: Come on ! If you were clean shaven, you’d knock ten years off our age

?! Steve: Hey, wait a minute ! Are you trying to tell me I look old



:Short Talk

When the alarm clock goes off, most people just turn over , cover their heads with a
pillow to drown out the sound, and go back to sleep. Some, however, jump out of bed, do
a few exercises, take a shower, dress and run out of the house. They don’t even take time
.for breakfast
