On earth, people in different time zones have different lives at the same time. Now let’s have a good look at the four countries.

Canada is a big country with six time zones. In the west (西方), it is 3:00 a.m. and everyone is sleeping, but in the east (东方) it is 7:30 a.m. and people are getting up. It is a cold Friday morning in November.

Scotland is part of the UK. The capital of Scotland is Edinburgh, and the capital of the UK is London. It is eleven in the morning in Edinburgh. Children are having lessons, but they are looking forward to the weekend because there are no lessons on Saturday and Sunday.

Friday is the weekend in Egypt. Friday is a different day for some people, so schools, offices and shops are not open. So now, at 1:00 p.m., most people in Egypt are having lunch with their family.

Japan is six hours ahead of Egypt, so it is already 7:00 p.m. on Friday there. The weekend is beginning. Most people are out with friends, watching TV or playing computer games.
