Script / Guión:
Good morning. My name´s Sarah Anderson. I am a business manager. I think I have a busy
schedule. I get up at half past four and make some coffee. At five, I take a shower and get
ready for work. I usually have a light breakfast and leave home. If I am in a hurry, I prefer to
take a taxi, but if I have time, I take the bus. I get to work at half past seven and prepare my
agenda for the day. On Mondays and Tuesdays, I write reports for my supervisor. On
Wednesdays, I make a lot of phone calls and schedule meetings. On Thursdays and Fridays, I
have to call about twenty clients before noon. At one o’clock, I have lunch with my co- workers
at the cafeteria. In the afternoon, I work on my projects and assign responsibilities to the
members of my team. At half past five, I go back home. I get home at around seven o’clock.
My husband and I make dinner, help our children with their homework, and put them to bed.
After that, we watch the news. Before I go to bed, I go on the computer and check my mail.
This is my life from Monday to Friday.
