Emily
Emily touched the button on the top of her bedside clock. It glowed 5:56 a.m. Another four minutes and it would have __woken__ her with the early morning news. Her mind had been racing all through the night only allowing her sporadic patches of sleep. By the time it was 6.00 a.m, Emily had decided exactly what she had to do if the chairman was unwilling to go along with her recommendations. She switched __off__ the automatic alarm, avoiding any news that might distract her. Then she jumped out of bed and headed straight for the bathroom. Her mother thought it amusing that Emily always showered before going out for her morning run. Emily __remained__ under the cold shower a little longer than usual, hoping it would help her get rid of her bad dreams.
__Although__ the sun had not yet risen, she didn’t need to open the bedroom curtains of her little room to know that it was going to be another clear, sunny day. A few minutes later Emily double-locked the front door of her four-room apartment, walked across the corridor and __pressed__ the elevator button. While she waited for the elevator to travel slowly up to the tenth floor, she began a series of stretching exercises that would be completed before the elevator returned to the ground floor. She __stepped__ out into the lobby and smiled at her favourite doorman, who quickly opened the front door so that she didn’t have to stop in her tracks.
“Morning, George,” she __said__, as she jogged out of Essex House onto West Street and headed towards Central Park.
