Listening.
Listen carefully to the tape. Mr.Brown's landlady has many house rules. Write down five of them.
It's that woman. She drives me crazy. It all started right from the very first day. I was saying from the very first evening when I set foot into that house."Good evening, Mr.Brown. Could you please put your coat on that poke? Oh, no not there. In the closet please. Yes, thank you and oh, your shoes! Could you please take them off? Thank you! And...er...your umbrella, yes, Could you please put your umbrella in the umbrella stand? Oh! No! Not there! Here. Please don't forget the key of the front door. Here you are, and remember: If you come home after midnight, please lock the door. Good night! Oh! Mr.Brown, would you please be quiet after 9 o'clock in the evening?" And that was only the beginning."Mr. Brown, don't shower after nine" she shouted. She will walk passing my door and say:" Mr.Brown, would you please remember not to smoke in the bathroom? Could you open the door please? Will you turn down your radio please? Please,Mr.Brown, could you speak quietly on the phone?" It was terrible. Oh, I could not hold staying there another week for share. And then, there was a letter."Dear Mr.Brown," it says, " Could you please return the key of the front door? And one more question. Could you help me find the new tenant for my flat?" |
