1. Andrea Schatzmann, an exchange student from Switzerland, lives with the Connor family in San Francisco. She gets up at 7 am and takes a shower. She normally doesn't have breakfast. At half past seven she catches the bus. Her first class starts at a quarter past eight. She always has lunch at 12 o'clock in the cafeteria. The cafeteria food is OK and it is cheap too. Her afternoon classes are from 1.15 till 3.00 pm, so she is at school all day. She usually has dinner with the Connors at about 8.00. On Saturdays she has lunch at the restaurant. Once a week, usually on Sunday mornings, she goes swimming. A few friends usually go along, too. One of her friends has got a car, so he picks them up and then he drives them home. After swimming they often go out for a pizza. On Saturday evenings she sometimes goes out with friends to a party or maybe to a concert. Sometimes she invites friends to her house and they listen to music and talk. Mr and Mrs Connor often take them for a camping weekend to the seaside or to the mountains. From time to time she calls her family in Switzerland. They never talk for very long because it is expensive. She usually calls on Sundays because it is cheaper then.

Last week our history teacher said that she wanted to find some photos from the 1950s. My grandfather lent me some great photos of him and my grandmother in 1957. He told that I would have to be careful with them, because they were very precious to him. But on the way to school, I lost them! When I got home, I felt terrible. I knew Grandad would be upset. Then a woman came to the door. She told me she had to find them in the street. She said that she had known my grandfather for many years and that she was so relieved!
