Let’s go step by step to answer all the questions based on Sophie’s daily routine.

---

1. What time does Sophie get up?
The text says: “She gets up at 7 o’clock in the morning.”
Answer: 7 o’clock

---

2. Does she usually have a shower?
Text: “After she gets dressed and eats her breakfast, she has a shower.”
Answer: Yes

---

3. What does she eat for breakfast?
Text: “she eats toast with jam or marmalade and drinks orange juice.”
Answer: Toast with jam or marmalade and orange juice

---

4. When does she leave home?
Text: “Then she leaves her house at half past eight (8:30) to catch the school bus.”
Answer: Half past eight (8:30)

---

5. What does she do after breakfast?
Text: “After she gets dressed and eats her breakfast, she has a shower.”
So after breakfast → shower.
Answer: She has a shower

---

6. Does she go to school on foot?
Text: “she catches the school bus” — not walking.
Answer: No

---

7. What time does school start?
Text: “School starts at nine o’clock.”
Answer: Nine o’clock

---

8. What time does it finish?
Text: “It finishes at three o’clock.”
Answer: Three o’clock

---

9. Where does Sophie usually have lunch?
Text: “At school, she has lunch in the canteen...”
Answer: In the canteen at school

---

10. At 3 o’clock is Sophie’s best friend?
Wait — this question seems miswritten. Looking at context:
Text says: “At 3 o’clock, Sophie’s best friend comes to pick her up from school.”
So probably meant: “Who picks Sophie up at 3 o’clock?” or “What happens at 3 o’clock?”
But as written: “At 3 o’clock is Sophie’s best friend?” — that doesn’t make sense grammatically.
Assuming typo → likely asking: “What happens at 3 o’clock?”
→ Answer: Her best friend picks her up from school.
But since question says “is Sophie’s best friend?”, maybe they mean “Is Sophie’s best friend there at 3?” → YES.
We’ll go with: Yes, her best friend comes to pick her up at 3 o’clock.

*(Note: If strictly answering “is Sophie’s best friend?” — it’s not a complete question. But in context, we assume it means “Does her best friend come at 3?”)*

Answer: Yes

---

11. How many times a day does she brush her teeth?
Text: “She brushes her teeth again before she goes to bed.”
Also earlier: “After she gets dressed and eats her breakfast, she has a shower. Then she brushes her teeth…”
So: once after breakfast, once before bed → twice a day
Answer: Two times

---

12. Is she a happy girl?
Text ends with: “Sophie is a happy little girl!”
Answer: Yes

---

Now let’s do the second part: Order Sophie’s daily routine

We need to number these events in order:

- She gets up at seven o’clock. → 1
- She catches the bus to school. → After getting ready, so 3 (after brushing teeth and having shower)
- She has lunch at the canteen. → During school day → 5
- She listens to music. → After homework → 7
- She chats with her parents for a while. → After dinner → 8
- She has a shower. → After breakfast → 2
- She has dinner. → After music/listening → 6
- She has dinner. → Wait, listed twice? Probably typo. Let’s check original list:

Original list given:

> - She gets up at seven o'clock.
> - She catches the bus to school.
> - She has lunch at the canteen.
> - She listens to music.
> - She chats with her parents for a while.
> - She has a shower.
> - She has dinner.
> - She has dinner. ← duplicate? Maybe one should be “has breakfast”? But no — text says she eats toast for breakfast, but doesn’t say “has breakfast” as an event here.

Looking back at text flow:

1. Gets up at 7
2. Gets dressed + eats breakfast + has shower → so shower is after breakfast
3. Leaves at 8:30 → catches bus
4. School starts at 9
5. Lunch at canteen
6. School finishes at 3 → picked up by friend
7. Goes home → does homework until 5
8. Listens to music / reads book / plays games
9. Has dinner at 7
10. Brushes teeth again
11. Chats with parents
12. Goes to bed at 9:30

So ordering the given phrases:

Given phrases to order:

A. She gets up at seven o’clock. → 1
B. She catches the bus to school. → 3
C. She has lunch at the canteen. → 5
D. She listens to music. → 7
E. She chats with her parents for a while. → 9
F. She has a shower. → 2
G. She has dinner. → 8
H. She has dinner. → duplicate? Probably mistake. Maybe one is “has breakfast”? But not listed. We’ll ignore duplicate or assume it’s same event.

Actually, looking again — the list has two “She has dinner.” — likely error. In text, only one dinner at 7pm.

So correct order:

1. She gets up at seven o’clock.
2. She has a shower. *(after breakfast, which isn't listed separately)*
3. She catches the bus to school.
4. She has lunch at the canteen.
5. She listens to music. *(after homework, before dinner)*
6. She has dinner.
7. She chats with her parents for a while. *(after dinner, before bed)*

Wait — text says: after dinner, she brushes teeth, then chats with parents, then goes to bed.

But “listens to music” is BEFORE dinner — during free time after homework.

So:

After school → homework till 5 → then listens to music/reads/plays → then dinner at 7 → then brushes teeth → chats with parents → bed.

So “listens to music” is before dinner.

Thus:

1. Gets up
2. Has shower
3. Catches bus
4. Has lunch
5. Listens to music
6. Has dinner
7. Chats with parents

That’s 7 items — but list had 8 including duplicate dinner. So perhaps the second “has dinner” is a mistake. We’ll use 7 steps.

Final ordered list:

1. She gets up at seven o’clock.
2. She has a shower.
3. She catches the bus to school.
4. She has lunch at the canteen.
5. She listens to music.
6. She has dinner.
7. She chats with her parents for a while.

*(Note: “She has dinner” appears twice in original — we treat as one event.)*

---

Third part: Write the sentences in the present simple and negative forms.

Example given:
Sophie brushes her teeth three times a day.
→ Sophie doesn’t brush her teeth three times a day.

We need to do same for:

1. She goes to school by bus.
→ Negative: She doesn’t go to school by bus.

2. She listens to music.
→ Negative: She doesn’t listen to music.

3. She chats with her parents for a while.
→ Negative: She doesn’t chat with her parents for a while.

*(Remember: for third person singular, add ‘doesn’t’ and use base verb form.)*
