A:How do you usually spend your time, now that you’ve retired1?  

B:Well, I nearly always get up at dawn. I don’t like sleeping in late. The days are longer in summer than in winter, so I get up in summer. I usually do some exercise when I get up.  

A:What do you have for breakfast?  

B:I usually have cereal2, but sometimes I cook a traditional English breakfast.  

A:that sounds nice. How do you spend your mornings?  

B:I usually do housework in mornings. I go shopping occasionally3. I like to do all my shopping in one bag trip to the supermarket. I always drive to the big supermarket in the city center. It takes about 20 minutes to drive there.  

A:How do you spend your afternoons?  

B:I usually meet some friends and we play sports together or I might spend some time alone on my hobbies. I spend winter evening watching tv, but I spend summer evening at cultural events if I have time.
