W hen do you like to study? W h en do you do your best
work? Is it in the m orning, during daytim e o r a t night?
Different people have different answers for these questions.
For example, mornings are always easy for some people.
They wake up early. They eat breakfast, they read the
newspaper and they go to work on time. These people are
morning people.
For other people, mornings are often very difficult. They
always go to bed late at night. They sleep late and they wake
up late. They sometimes drink a cup of coffee, but they
dont eat breakfast (because they are late for work). These
are night people.

a tradition of night markets. In
some places night markets are
popular because it is very hot

markets are popular places to
buy toys, clothes, films and
