A busy day
I can understand the general idea of a text.
THINK! Have you got a big family? How many people live in your house?
The Radfords with sixteen of their children in 2012
Sue and Noel Radford have got 22 sons and daughters and they've also got six grandchildren. It's a big family, and they're very organised.
Noel gets up at 4.45 a.m., has breakfast and goes to work. The children get up at 6.45 a.m.
Sue works at home. Her older daughter sometimes helps with the housework. The younger children don't help. They watch TV with their brothers and sisters. Sue doesn't watch TV a lot. The Radfords don't usually go to restaurants because it's expensive.
The young children normally go to bed at 7 p.m., the older ones at 8 p.m. or 9 p.m. and their parents go to bed just before 10 p.m.
1. Look at the photo. Choose and write a title a-c for the text. Then read the text and check your idea.
a. Big family, big problems
b. An easy life for the Radfords
c. Happy house
