E. means Physical Education (sport / exercise); soccer means football.] Reading and Writing: a schedule for a friend Your friend is a university student who has classes from 8:00 am until 2:00 pm every day. He / She is not getting good grades and is always tired. Read the paragraph and make a daily schedule for him / her. The Ideal Daily RoutineStudents should have a regular schedule of academic work, rest, meals, and exercise. A daily schedule helps to maintain a regular routine, which also helps to develop time management skills. Too many student waste too much time, and then complain that they “don’t have enough time” to do all their tasks! A student should get up early enough to prepare for the day’s routine. There should be time to wash, pray, eat breakfast, and to pack the necessary books and papers without rushing. Waking up late and panicking causes stress, and usually the student also forgets to take some important book, paper or homework assignment to class.Driving fast to get to class on time causes more stress, and can of course be dangerous. Most students do not take healthy snacks to campus; during their short breaks they quickly eat a chocolate or a packet of chips, which further contributes to an unhealthy lifestyle. Many students do not eat breakfast, and prefer to chat or to use their mobile phones or laptop computers during breaks rather than to eat or drink something. These students cannot pay attention in class, and as the day continues they become more and more tired and cannot take in any information. When students get home, they should eat something healthy and rest for an hour or two. Sport or physical exercise is an excellent way of strengthening the body, so an hour’s exercise per day is advisable. Not more than four hours per day should be spent on homework tasks and studying. Too many students spend their evening hours on the internet or playing computer games, and then find that they have no time to study. Dinner should be eaten with the family; many people today do not spend much time with their family members, which can lead to unhappiness in the home. After dinner there should be some time to relax and / or to do some more homework or studying before preparing to go to bed. Bedtime should be no later than 11:00 pm. ................
