Lesson 373

laundry = clothes, trousers, coat, dress, sweater, jersey, T-shirt, shirt, blouse, pullover, bed clothes

sweets = chocolate, cake, pie, tart

I only think of myself / take care of myself.
= I’m selfish.

5) Apple

Mrs Miller had two sons. One morning on vacation, as she was doing the laundry for the family, her younger son came and asked for some money for sweets. That was bad for his teeth, Mrs Miller told him and instead offered him two apples, one of which he should give to his elder brother. One of the apples was much larger than the other, and as the little boy liked apples, he kept the bigger one for himself and gave the smaller one to his brother. When the older boy saw that his brother had a much larger apple, he said to him, "It's selfish to keep the bigger one for yourself. If mother had given me the apples, I would have given you the bigger one." "I know you would," replied his brother. "That's why I took it."
