Track3-5 Hello, my name is Barbara Smith. I’m the manager of the Bank of America and I’m going to tell you what I did yesterday. I got up at 7:15 (seven fifteen) and left home at 7:55 (five to eight). After a 35 minutes’ drive, I arrived at my office at about 8:30 (half past eight). The first thing I did was to turn on my computer and check my mail. At 9 sharp, work began. I interviewed two candidates in the morning: one at 9:30 (nine thirty) and the other at 10:40 (twenty to eleven). At 12:20 (twenty past twelve), I went down to the cafeteria for some lunch. In the afternoon, I interviewed two more candidates: one at 2 o’clock and the other at 3:15 (a quarter past three). At 4 o’clock, I attended a staff meeting, which lasted for about three quarters of an hour. By then it was time to go home. The traffic was so bad that it took me more than an hour to get home. It was already 7:30 (half past seven) when I finally sat down to my dinner, completely tired out.
