Look! There are so many things on the playground. Whose red T-shirt is it? Oh, it's Wu Binbin's. Whose pink dress is it? Oh, it's Bai Ling's. Whose yellow shoes are they? Oh, They're Chen Jie's. Whose black pants are they? They're Mike's. Whose purple jacket is it? Oh, it's Sarah's. Please take the things back, children!

    There are 365 days in a year. We sleep 8 hours a day, so we have 122 days for sleeping.

    Then our work time has 243 days left. But there are 52 weekends in a year. Each weekend is two days. We lose another 104 days a year for work. It takes us about one hour to have breakfast and supper. This comes to 15 days over a year. But we can't work all that time we need a holiday. Let's say we have three weeks' holiday. We don't work all day. Four free hours each evening takes up 61 days. We have to remember that we get 2 days' holiday at Easier, 3 at Christmas and 1 at the New Year. There are also 4 Bank holidays. Take those 10 days away and we have 32 days for work. But then we have one and a half hours' lunch every day, and half an hour's coffee break. That comes to 30 days a year. This means that we have only a few days left for work every year!
