Read and choose the right option.

¡Hola, amigos! Soy Raúl, de España. En España we begin the school year en septiembre and our school horario depends on each type of school. Some may run from 9 por la mañana through 5 por la tarde, with a two-hour lunch break. Other schools may begin at 9 por la mañana and end at 3 por la tarde, which is the typical lunchtime en España. Some schools may have only a one-hour lunch break and may or may not provide a cafeteria for children to eat at the school.

Mi amigo Francisco in Costa Rica starts school en diciembre at 7 a.m. every morning. He stays there for about six hours. Francisco tells me that some students go to class either por la mañana or por la tarde.
