Suggestion or command? "It’s early in the morning, and Jem sleeps in his bed. When his mom comes in his room sweeping the floor, he suddenly wakes up feeling terror running through him. “Mom!” he protests. “It’s time you got up darling." says his mom. Jem sighs and gets up eventually." -Is "It's time you got up" here a suggestion or a command?

It's time... It’s early in the morning, and Jem sleeps in his bed in such a peace. It’s sunny outside and the birds sing their heart out.Everything is beautiful. But when his mom comes in his room sweeping the floor, he suddenly wakes up feeling terror running through him and at the same time his alarm clock goes off loudly, “Mom!” he protests. “It’s time you woke up darling. See!” his mom points to the alarm clock smiling cheerfully. Jem sighs and gets up eventually washing his face and “what a good start for the day” thinks sarcastically. He looks in the mirror adjusting his hair with a bit of hair wax and still excited about the after-school new year party he will go to. He finally goes to the party with his friends and has so much fun there. When Jem ignores the fifth message of his mom wanting him to come back home as it’s pretty late, his friend Dill calls everyone “Hey guys, gather aroud! There’s only one minute left for the new year. It’s time we started counting down to the new year.” They count down and suddenly everywhere is filled with the pieces of confetti and with balloons. They all hug, take selfies, and some dance. Jem gets another message from his mom. “Dad and I talked, we are going to buy you a car next month.” is written. He gets super excited seeing that and texts back: “You are? Omg thank you!!” While Jem tells his friends about his new car with an extreme joy, he gets another message: “No, we are not. I just wanted to make sure you were getting my texts. It’s time you came home, young man!” P.S: It's quite important for me that the language/expressions be as natural as possible. Thanks!

What do you understand ? "For some reason everytime someone has difficulty with explaining something in their lives whether it's a situtation we have gotten ourselves into, or something we just observe or think about in our daily lives we say there must be a purpose for it.Perhaps thats true.When we say that, for some of us, we assume that it's always a good thing." So that's the context. I couldn't really get what's meant here. Could you please help me like what do you understand?

An authentic text

Hello! I'm going to make a demo next week, so I've been looking for an authentic reading text including five idioms at least. Do you know any resource which will be helpful or do you have an idea how to find one? 

/v/ and /b/ sounds ? I've a language learning app, and the words "vino" or "verde" is pronounced with the /v/ sound that is in English. However, i have learnt that the "v" letter should be pronounced like /b/. Which one is correct? Or is there a rule for this point?

"estoy" vs "tango" ? What is the difference between "estoy frío" and "tengo frío" ?

"yo estoy feliz" ? Why is it "estoy" but not "soy"? Or both are correct?
