Describe something you do that saves you time

Band 6

I would like to talk about something I do every Sunday in Monterrey, where I live: I cook my meals for the whole week. I start at about three o’clock in the afternoon and I stay in the kitchen since two hoursPredlog xatosi: “for about two hours” boʻlishi kerak edi. I make rice, chicken, beans and some vegetables, and then I put everything in boxes in the fridge.

Now I just take a box, heat it and eat. On a normal weekday this saves me about one hour, which is a lot when I arrive home at seven and I am very tired. It helps me because I do not need to cook after work, so I have more timeOddiy soʻz boyligi; Lexical Resource’ni cheklaydi in the evening to relax or watchingParallel tuzilma xatosi: “relax”ga mos kelishi uchun “watch” boʻlishi kerak edi a series.

Band 7

I’d like to talk about something I do every Sunday in Monterrey, where I live: I cook my meals for the whole week. I start at about three o’clock in the afternoon and spend roughly two hours in the kitchen. I make rice, chicken, beans and some vegetables, and then I put everything into boxes in the fridge. I wash and cut the vegetables first so the cooking goes faster, and I listen to a podcast while I work, which makes the time pass quickly. During the week I work in an office and finish late, so before I started this habit I used to buyingShakl xatosi: “used to buy” boʻlishi kerak edi food on the way home almost every day. Now I simply take a box, heat it and eat. On a normal weekday that saves me about an hour, which matters when I get home at seven, exhausted.

Band 8

I’d like to talk about something I do every Sunday in Monterrey, where I live: I cook my meals for the whole week. I start at about three in the afternoon and spend roughly two hours in the kitchen, making rice, chicken, beans and some vegetables, which then go into boxes in the fridge. I chop the vegetables first so that everything cooks in parallel, and I put a podcast on, which makes the two hours fly by. I work in an office and often finish late, so before I started this habit I used to buy food on the way home almost every day. Now I simply take a box, heat it and eat. On a normal weekday that saves me roughly an hour, which matters a great deal when I get home at seven, exhausted. It helps me because I no longer have to cook after work, which frees up a couple of hoursTabiiy ishlatilgan aniq frazaviy feʼl in the evening to relax or watch a series.
