NAME:

a long exercise

Grandma Dino loves her exercise bike. Every afternoon, she hops on her bike and pedals quickly.
“Time to exercise,” she says.
She climbs up, adjusts the timer on the bike, and starts pedaling.
Grandma likes to look at magazines while she rides.
“This is a good recipe,” she says, turning the pages.
– And I liked that hat! – Grandma complements.
The pedals rotate as she reads. She has just read a magazine and opens another. “Heavens! I must be tired today… It's not going as fast as usual,” she thinks, turning more pages.

Before long, grandma finishes reading the second magazine. She is very tired now!
“I think I'll take a nap later,” she says breathlessly. Sweat is running down her face and back.
– How much time do I have to pedal before the alarm goes off? – she asks herself.
She looks at the alarm. It is not turned on!
- Oh gosh! I forgot to turn on the alarm! How long have I been pedaling? – she wants to know.
She looks outside.
- Our! The moon is rising! I was cycling all afternoon. Oh, what a fool I am! No wonder I'm tired!
