Molly is talking about her aunt’s new job.
1) What is her aunt? What do you think?
My aunt has found a new job and she likes it. There are some rules of her job, but they are not very strict.
First, she mustn’t be late. She must arrive before 8 o’clock. She lives near the place where she works, that’s why she doesn’t have to go by bus. She walks and it takes her little time to get to work.
Then my aunt has to work a whole day, but it is not very hard for her because she looks after a very good and polite boy.
