‘Well, you’ve finally arrived!’ she said to the plumber. ‘ I calle dyou three days ago.’
The plumber was not at all disturbed by this. He simply took a piece of paper out of his pocket and looked at it. ‘Three days ago?’ he said. ‘That was 21st,
Wasn’t it? Well, I’m sorry but I’ve come to the wrong place. I was looking for Mrs Smith’s house, not yours. She phoned me on the 20th.’

‘Yes, doctor,’ she answered.

‘ Miss Green,’ he said, ‘why aren’t you eating salad? Why are you eating potatoes and bread?
They aren’t in your diet.’
‘But, doctor,’ Miss Green answered. ‘I ate my diet at lunch time. This is my dinner.’

Passage
Whose Fault Is It?
An important businessman was asked to give a twenty-minute speech in another city. He ws too busy to write it himself, so he asked his secretary to put one together for him out of a large book of speeches which she had on her desk. She typed one out for him, and he picked it just in time to rush off to his plane. But when he gave his speech, it ran on for an hour, and the audience was getting very restless and bored by the end of it.
When the businessman got back to his office, he complained to his secretary about this. ‘ I told you it was supposed to be a twenty-minute speech!’ he said to her bitterly.
‘That’s what I gave you,’ she answered, ‘ the original and the two copies. The original for you to read at the meeting and the two copies for the file, after you have checked them.’

Passage
The Restaurant Is Full of Diners Now
Very few people were coming to eat at the White Rose Restaurant, and its owner didn’t know what to do. The food in his restaurant was cheap and good, but nobody seemed to want to eat there.
Then he did something that changed all that, and in a few weeks his restaurant was always full of men and their lady friends. Whenever a gentleman came with a lady, a smiling waiter gave each of them a beautiful menu. The menus looked exactly the same on the outside, but there was an important difference inside. The menu that the waiter handed to the man gave the correct price for each dish and each bottle of wine; while the menu that he hand ed to the lady gave a much higher price! So when the man calmly ordered dish after dish and wine after wine, the lady thought he was much more generous than he really was!

Ken When is your vacation going to start, Diana?

Ken Have you made your hotel reservation yet?

Mary You may save at least half of the money if you go by ship.
Bob But don’t you think it would take a long time and …
Mary But you can enjoy the scene of the sea and the rising sun.
Bob yes. I’ll tell it to my wife.
Mary You’ll definitely enjoy yourselves, I’m sure.
Bob Don’t be so sure. We may not go anywhere.
Mary You always hesitate at everything.
Bob it’s not my fault, you know. My wife always worries too much.
Mary like what?
Bob Well… Who’s going to look after the house? Who’s going to look after the garden? And who’s going to look after the pets? We have these problems every year. And in the end we stay at home and look after everything.
Passage
Did Mr Young Enjoy His Vacation?
Mr Young ran his own business and worked very hard. His wife was afraid that he would get sick if he continued like that, so she often tried to get him to take a vacation. At last she managed to persuade him to do so, and she hoped that he would be able to enjoy his vacation without any disturbance, so before they left, Mrs Young went to see her husband’s secretary. She said to her, ‘ my husband needs a vacation very much, so whatever happens, please don’t bother him with telegrams and letters about business problems while we’re away. Just wait till we get back.’
After Mr and Mrs young had been away about a week, Mr Young received a letter from his secretary which said,’ Something terrible happened to your business, but I’m not going to bothr you with it while you’re enjoying your vacation.’
