Writing exercise

Original –

It’s spring now, weather is become warmer and warmer so get up is become more and more difficult. It’s really hard for me to go to work in time. So I’m late almost everyday but it’s not just me also my colleagues and my boss. We don’t need to update our working time so my boss don’t know that I’m always arrived to the office over 10 a’clock cause she come to work later than me. Although I know that it’s not a good habit, I still can’t get up.

Correction

It’s spring now, the weather is getting warmer and warmer. So getting up is becoming increasingly difficult. It’s really hard for me to get to work on time. So I’m late almost everyday but it’s not just me also my colleagues and my boss. We don’t need to update our schedule so my boss doesn’t know that I’m always arriving to the office after 10 a’clock.  Because she comes to work later than me. Although I know that it’s not a good habit, I still can’t break it and get up on time.

Grammar

Be + V. + …ing.      It is getting cold.      You are looking bored.
