I always put the coffee, filter, and water in the night before so it's ready to go. 我总是在前一天晚上放好咖啡、滤纸和水，这样我随时都能用。

　　Next, I open the door of the cupboard where the cereal is stored. 接着，我打开放置麦片的橱柜。

　　I would love to have ham and eggs for breakfast every morning, or maybe a stack of waffles, 我很想每天早上都能吃火腿和鸡蛋，要么一堆华夫饼也行。

　　but the truth is that I just don't have the time to cook. 可事实是我并没有时间做早餐。

　　So, I pour myself a bowl of cereal and put in a glass of skim milk, making sure I take a spoon out of the silverware tray. 因此，我倒上一碗麦片，然后在碗里倒一杯脱脂牛奶，并从银碟里拿一根调羹。

　　I go outside and pick up my newspaper, and sit down at the kitchen table. 我去外面捡起报纸，然后坐在餐桌旁。

　　I love reading the paper in the morning, though usually I just have time to read a few of the stories. 早上我爱读报，尽管我一般只有看几个故事的时间。

　　When I've finished my cereal, I grab a banana and maybe make a slice of toast with jam. 吃完麦片后，我掰一根香蕉，还可能会做一片果酱吐司。

　　I rinse off my breakfast dishes in the sink and put them in the dishwasher. 全都吃完后，我会在水槽里冲洗吃早餐时用的餐具，然后把它们放到洗碗机里。

　　By that time, my coffee is ready so I pour myself a cup and put the rest in a Thermos for work. 到那时，咖啡就煮好了，我会先倒出一杯，然后把剩下的装到保温瓶里，以便上班时使用。
