Emma Watson was born in 1990 in Paris. She is a British actress, model and activist. She is famous for her role as Hermione in the Harry Potter film series. More recently, she played Belle in the musical fantasy film Beauty and the Beast. However, she is also known for being a feminist. She is a strong supporter of women’s rights and gender equality. In 2014, she was appointed as a United Nations women's ambassador. According to her, feminism is not about man-hating. On the contrary, feminism is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. She also fights for equal pay between men and women. She once said: “I think it is right that as a woman I am paid the same as my male counterparts. I think it is right that socially I am afforded the same respect as men”.

Nobody ever said life is fair.

My dream house is a villa; it is very large and modern.
It is located in Europe, in Italy (because I have cousins in Italy).
It is on the seaside, because I love swimming and playing volleyball on the beach.
My dream house is made of bricks. It is mostly white.
It has 4 floors: two for the parents, and two for the children.
In my dream house, there are 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a big modern kitchen, a living-room, and a dining-room. There is a big guest room so I can invite my friends or family.
My dream house is extraordinary because it has a swimming-pool and a home cinema.
My favourite room is my bedroom because it has a view on the beach and there is a big aquarium. There is a desk with a computer, an armchair, and a big double bed just for me.

Night, night, sleep tight.
Rise and shine.
Feel fine.

- We'll leave the deer.

- We'll find a real, live beast.

- I see a real beast.

My dream house is a tree house, because I love nature. It’s not very big, but it is beautiful, comfortable and eco-friendly.
It is located in the Sequoia forest, in the USA. The Sequoia forest has the tallest trees in the world!
My dream house is made of wood.
There are 2 floors. Downstairs, there is the kitchen and the living-room, and upstairs, there is a bedroom and a bathroom.
My dream house doesn’t have a swimming-pool or a cinema, but it has an immense garden: the forest!
My dream house is eco-friendly because it uses solar energy and water from the rain. It is very quiet and silent because it’s in the middle of nature and there are no cars.
My favourite room is the kitchen because I love cooking.

I get up at 7 o'clock and have a shower. Then I have breakfast. It's usually some porridge and fruit juice. After that, I ride to the gym on my bike.
I'm always at the gym at about nine o'clock. At the gym I train with my team. My team colours are purple , white and red. The training session is usually about three hours, then we have lunch in the gym restaurant. We eat a lot of pasta for energy. In the afternoon, we often play a game with friends of the team.
To relax after gym, I often listen to music. I have dinner at eight o'clock. My favourite food is fish with a lot of vegetables. I usually go to bed at half past ten. I sometimes read a book in bed.
