7. Today 'Life in Britain' is writing about Alan Jenkins, a London double-decker bus driver. He is telling about his life.
‘Sometimes, I work from 5 o'clock in the morning until lunchtime (that is the 'early shift'); other times I start in the afternoon and work until after midnight. And that is quite normal for a bus driver with London Transport.’
‘When I am on the early shift, I get up about 4 am, have breakfast (toast and tea usually, but sometimes bacon and eggs), and then I cycle to work.’
"I prefer the early shift to the later ones,' Alan is telling us. 'I have more time for the children. For example, I can meet them after school, and then we usually have a quick game of football, if the weather's fine. On the late shift, I sometimes don't see the children for two or three days, because they often leave home in the morning before I get up, and they're always in bed when I get home,'
‘At weekends, too, I do not always have enough time for my children. I usually work three Saturdays out of four, and also on every third Sunday.’
A. Write 7 sentences about Alan Jenkins.
