1.- A DAY IN THE LIFE OF ROBINSON CRUSOE.

I get up at half past four when it gets light. After breakfast I wash in the river near my hut. I climb the mountain in the morning. I sometimes see a ship from the top of the mountain through my telescope. At midday I sit on the beach under a palm tree. I eat some fruit for lunch and write my diary. I go fishing in the afternoon. Then I go swimming in the lagoon. The sea is calm there and there aren´t any sharks.
