Sample answer (read it aloud, then make it yours)

I usually wake up at six. First I drink a glass of water and go for a short walk. Then I read the newspaper editorial and note five new words. From eight to eleven I study, because my mind is fresh in the morning. After lunch I take a short nap. In the evening I revise what I studied and practise speaking English for ten minutes. I go to bed around eleven. On Sundays I break the routine and meet my friends.
