READING PASSAGE: DAILY ROUTINE OF MY LIFE
I am a student. I have a very simple routine. It is the same except on Sunday. I once heard from
my teacher that early rising is the father of three blessings - healthy, wealth and wisdom. From that
time, I have been rising early in the morning. I get up at 4 o’clock.
After doing my morning duties, I take bath in cold water. Then I take my breakfast. It consists of a few
biscuits and a glass of milk. Then I read my books. I read them till 8 a.m. During three hours, I practically
finish all the reading of my lessons. Then I complete home task of different subjects. At 9 I take my
meal. I dress myself. I brush my shoes. At 9.30 I start for my school with my friend.
The school begins at 10 a.m. I am at school ten minute earlier. Although hate classroom
atmosphere still I attend to what each teacher says. I pay full respect to every teacher. In the first
period I learn English. In the last period I learn History.
During a break, I go to canteen. I take tea there. After I play for some time with my friends. I also
go to library to borrow books. As soon as the break ends, I go to my class to study for last four periods.
Break makes us fresh for further study.
The school finishes at 4 p.m. I return home at about 4.30 p.m. Having taken the light lunch I take
rest for fifteen minutes. At 5 p.m I have physical exercise in gymnasium. I spend half an hour there.
Then I run to the playground to take part in different games. My best interest goes to hockey. It is the
game which refreshes my mind and makes me active. Then I get back home and take a cold bath. After
having my dinner, I take evening walk. At about 10 p.m. I go to bed.
On Sunday and other holidays, I sometimes go to cinema for entertainment. At other times I
visit my friends. In holidays there is a break in the daily routine. But I never break the golden rule of
“early to bed and early to rise”.
