1 Reading

A Look at the messege board question. What's your favorite day of the week? Why?

B Read the message board. Whose favorite day is on the weekend?

My favorite day of the week is Saturday, I study from Monday to Friday. On saturday, I get up late.

Not Saturday or Sunday. I work from noon to 4:00 on those days. In the evening, I study. My favorite day is Wednesday, because I don't work on Wednesdays.

Monday. I watch my favorite TV show every Monday. It has my favorite actor. The show is called "Life with Jason." It's on at 8:00.

Monday?! No way! Saturday, Saturday, Saturday! We don't go to school on Saturdays.

Sunday! I get up late, read the news, and have coffee. Then my son and daughter cook breakfast for my wife and me.

I have two favorite days - Tuesday and Thursday. I have an art class after work on those days, and my teacher is very nice.
