In the first picture, I can see two young women working in an office. They seem to be discussing some papers, which are on the desk. The desk is covered with papers and everyone looks very busy. In the background there are other desks. The women probably get up early so that they can get ready for work. During their lunch break, they could go to the park or to a nearby fast food restaurant. After work, they may go to the gym or go out with friends. When they go home, they probably have dinner and watch TV for a while. They probably don’t go to bed very late because they have to get up early the next morning.
