How I’ve Changed
My life has changed a lot in the past few
years. I used to have so much time, but now I’m too busy. I always used to get up early and stay in school all day. Before I go to high school, I used to spend lots of time playing games with my friends, but I just don’t have the time anymore. In the evening, I used to watch TV or play computer games, but now I have to study.
One possible version
I love music, and my father used to take
me to concerts. But I still really love my
present life.
The biggest change in my life was I’m
more busy than before, because I went
into high school and I have more
homework.
How I’ve changed!
My life has changed greatly since primary school. I used to like different things when I was in primary school. For example, I used to hate homework very much. But now I don’t mind it.
The other possible version
I often spend less time finishing it. I used to be afraid of being bullied by taller children. But now I learn to make friends with them. I learned a lot in the past three years. Now I feel I’m a grown-up.
