PAST SIMPLE Reading comprehension

Ben’s day.

When I woke up this morning, I found my dog, Fox, waiting for me. He

wanted me to take him for a walk. I was too hungry, so first I had

breakfast. I had a glass of milk and a piece of toast. Then I washed my

teeth and put on a track-suit and a heavy coat, because it was really

cold outside. Fox was already impatient. We both went out, and walked

to the park near home. He ran and jumped, and pursued some passers-

by. He also destroyed some pieces of furniture somebody left on the

road. I sat on a bench all the time, wishing I could be inside my warm

bed. When my hands were frozen, I decided it was time to go back home.

Fox didn’t want to, but I pulled hard and I managed to take him back.

When we arrived at the front door, I realized I didn’t have my keys

with me, so we stayed out in the cold for more than an hour! Fox was

happy, but I was late for work!
