Lesson 288

2) At the beginning of the First World War At the beginning of the First World War, John Robinson went with a lot of other men to France, and served as a soldier in the army in a cold, wet and muddy camp. The rain came into his tent, there was mud and water on the floor, and the food was bad. Then he was promoted to officer and the army sent him to Paris. He had a very pleasant life there in a warm house, had very good food and was in a good mood. After a few months he met one of his acquaintances from the camp. "You made a big mistake when you left our camp," said the soldier. "Oh," said John Robinson. "Why?" "Well, the week after you left us, wooden floors were laid in the tents!"

Lesson 285

1) A heavy blizzard One night there was a heavy blizzard, and the next morning Mr Smith's garden was covered in deep snow. Mr Smith wanted to drive out with his vehicle, so he paid a man to clear the way out of the garage to his gate, asking this man not to shovel any snow to the side, because it would crush the bushes in his garden, not to throw any on the other side, because it would damage his fence, and nothing into the street, because a fine would be imposed on Mr Smith by the police. Then he left, and when he returned, the road was clean and the snow was neither on the bushes, on the fence, nor on the road. He was very satisfied until he opened the garage to his car! The garage was full up to the top, with all the snow from the path, and his car was somewhere under it!
