nunca frecuentemente a veces siempre

Sample answer: Para ir a la escuela yo siempre tomaba el autobús porque era la única opción que tenía. El horario de la escuela era de 8 de la mañana hasta las 5 de la tarde por eso yo nunca almorzaba en mi casa. La cafetería de la escuela no me gustaba mucho, por esta razón mis amigos y yo frecuentemente comíamos en el centro comercial cercano a nuestra escuela. A veces, mi amiga Julia nos traía la comida que preparaba su madre.
