Elsa Hallmark, a thirteen-year-old girl from Arizona, is talking about her life. Match the answers 1–5 with the questions below.

1. My school day is quite busy as I have classes from 8 am to 2 pm. I have different subjects like maths, science, English, social studies, and others. I enjoy learning new things and participating in class discussions. During lunch break, I usually hang out with my friends and chat about our interests.

2. I think it's maths. The best part is that I do sums in different ways. For example, if my teacher explains a problem in one way and everyone copies that method in their notebooks, I remember that method and write another method in my maths notebook.

3. On Mondays and Thursdays I play basketball. I like this sport very much, and I often go to the games with my team. And on Wednesdays I attend music classes. We have a wonderful teacher who inspires us to learn music.

4. I usually only do homework on weekdays. I think three or four hours a day. I try to keep my weekends free of homework.

5. I usually spend time with my family on the weekends. We go out for a movie or visit our relatives. Sometimes, we also go on a picnic or a short trip to nearby places.
