Lesson 2 Breakfast or lunch?    First listen and then answer the question.
   
    Why was the writer's aunt surprised?
    It was Sunday. I never get up early on Sundays. I sometimes stay in bed until lunchtime. Last Sunday I got up very late. I looked out of the window. It was dark outside. 'What a day!' Ithought. 'It's raining again.' Just then, the telephone rang. It was my aunt Lucy. 'I've just arrived by train,' she said. 'I'm coming to see you.'
    'But I'm still having breakfast,' I said.
    'What are you doing?' she asked.
    'I'm having breakfast,'
