W:What’s wrong with it?
M:Well,besides being too far from work,I’m having some problems with my landlady.She keeps raising the rent,but she never does any repairs.Everything is breaking down.
W:That’s terrible.Listen,I think there is a room available to rent in my apartment building.And my landlady is excellent.And I’m sure it would be closer to your work than you are now.
M:Really?But is it expensive? My budget isn’t that big.
W:No,it’s not that expensive.And it’s provided with furniture.
M:That sounds great.I’d love to see it.When can we go?
W:How about now?
M:Sure.I’ll drive.
(Text 10)
A man was telling one of his friends the secret of his
happy married life.“My wife makes all the small decisions,”he explained,“and I make all the big ones,so we never quarrel about each other’s business and never get unhappy with each other.Our duties have been divided clearly.We have no arguments though it is a few years since we got married.”
“That sounds reasonable,” answered his friend with great interest.“And what sort of decisions does your wife make?” “Well,” answered the man,“she decides how much money our family needs,what food we eat,what sort of house we live in,what clothes we buy,what school our children go to,where we go for holidays and things like that.” His friend was surprised.“Oh?” he said.“And what important decisions do you consider then?” “Well,” answered the man,“I decide who should be Prime Minister,whether we should increase our help to poor countries,when we should drop atom bombs and things like that.”
