ответ:It is Saturday. I won't have classes, so I'll stay in bed later than usual. I'll get up at 10 and will understand that it is too late to do morning exercises. At this time my Mum and Dad are not at home. I'll look out of the window and will see them in the garden; they'll take away the old leaves and will prepare the garden for the winter. So I'll go to the kitchen and will make my breakfast myself. I'll eat my breakfast and will look through the ads in the newspaper. It takes me about an hour. As usual I forget to wash up after breakfast. I'll go back to my room and will listen to my favourite music. Then I'll hear the telephone ring and will run to the drawing room. My group mate calls. He'll invites me to his place, but I won't want to go out. I am too lazy. At about 1 o'clock the Old Man and the Old Lady will come in. They will both exhausted and angry, because my dirty dishes will still on the table. I'll try to make up for it and will offer to cook lunch, but my mother won't allow me. She'll say I will spoil everything. I'll feel ashamed and will promise to myself that I'll start a new life tomorrow... Tomorrow is Sunday...
