A sample Hebrew passage - Elementary (A2)

דנה קמה כל בוקר בשעה שש. קודם היא שותה כוס מים ופותחת את החלון. אחר כך היא רצה בפארק חצי שעה. כשהיא חוזרת הביתה, היא אוכלת לחם עם גבינה ושותה תה. דנה לא נוסעת באוטובוס, כי הוא תמיד מלא אנשים. בגלל זה היא הולכת לעבודה ברגל. הדרך לוקחת רבע שעה. כשהיא מגיעה למשרד, היא כבר ערה ורגועה. בערב היא חוזרת הביתה ומבשלת ארוחת ערב. לפני השינה היא תמיד קוראת קצת בספר.
