Guess what each person does
Ann has a very unpredictable lifestyle because 
she doesn’t have a regular job. When she has a 
part, however, she tends to get up late as she 
works until late in the evenings. Then, she goes 
to the gym because it’s important for her to be 
healthy. After that Ann learns her lines or 
attends extra rehearsals. She goes to work at 
about six o’clock. Ann’s profession enables her 
to fulfil one of her dreams - to travel. She tries 
to keep an optimistic approach to life as you 
never know what the future holds. 
Steve has a very busy lifestyle - getting up at five 
thirty, working out in the gym and then going 
straight to work. He often has working 
breakfasts and lunches and meetings to attend 
that go on until the early hours. Steve also has 
to travel a lot, so he isn’t able to spend much 
time with his family and friends, although he 
tries to keep his weekends free. He believes in 
hard work and that the key to success lies in 
honesty and determination. His recent 
promotion gives him reason to hope that he will 
be a senior partner of the firm one day.

Claire’s life is pretty much the same from day to 
day. On weekdays she gets up at seven, wakes 
up her teenaged sons and sees them off to 
school. Then she starts the housework, 
shopping and so on. She spends a lot of time 
working in the garden, which she really enjoys. 
Claire always tries to arrange something special 
for the weekends - a drive in the country with 
the whole family, for instance. She believes that 
taking care of her family is a job in itself and 
one that she takes great pride in. 
Helen’s lifestyle is really quite hectic and 
stressful. She could be out all day following up 
some news item, only to be called up in the 
middle of the night because something 
important has happened and the editor wants 
her to cover the story. But, a chaotic lifestyle is
