Imagine a whole day with nothing to do but read. How would you spend it?

A natural way to answer

I'd spend it very quietly. I'd stay comfortable at home, prepare plenty of tea and snacks, and read through several books I've been saving. I'd switch off my phone and let myself relax completely, with no schedule to follow.

Key phrases to use

• work my way through — deal with or get through a number of things steadily, one by one“I'd work my way through the whole pile of books.”
• hole up — stay shut away somewhere cosy and private, usually by choice“I'd hole up at home with a stack of novels.”
• lost in another world — so absorbed in something that you forget your surroundings“A good book leaves me lost in another world.”
