The climbing of trees
Dear teachers...
Would you be kind enough to tell if the lines above are OK?
When she was a kid, she couldn't buy things on her own. She relied on her parents. Now that she has a job, to which she is used to work just 8 hours a day, she can afford her own life. Interestingly, there are things she could do 10 years ago and now she can't, for instance, the climbing of trees, she could also sleep all day long, she could watch as many TV shows as she wanted. Nowadays, life is better for her, but no easier.
Thanks
