Lesson 3
Humorous Stories

 

 

Topic 1 Minor of Miner?

My sister, Ann, is 15 years old. She wants to get her first part-time job. She has found an ad and is calling the company.

Ann: Hello. I saw your ad in the newspaper.
Do you need someone?
Man: Yes, we do. What kind of job do you want?
Ann: Any part-time job will do.
Man: How about working at a supermarket?
Ann: Good.
Man: What's your age?
Ann: I'm fifteen years and two months old.
Man: Sorry. I'm afraid you can't work at your age.
We want someone more than eighteen years old.
Ann: Don't you hire minors?
Man: Why? Do you only work underground?


Topic 2 They're not Eager to Leave

In the supermarket, a woman put some food and other things in a cart. She was walking toward the checkout line and passing the magazine stand. A corner of the stand caught a bag of oranges in her cart, and ripped it open. The oranges fell onto the floor.
The woman picked up the oranges and started off again. Then a box of sugar dropped from the cart. When she picked it up, some tomatoes fell down.
A clerk came to her and said, "Don't worry. Can I help you?"
"I'm sorry, but it wasn't my fault. You must treat these groceries very well here." the woman said to him with a smile.
"They're certainly not eager to leave."


DIALOGUE 1
Look at the pictures and practice talking with your partner.
Hello. Can I work for your shop?
Yes, but what's your age?
I'm fifteen years old. Fifteen years old?
Sorry, I'm afraid you can't.


DIALOGUE 2
Think about your answer and talk with your friends.
I've lost my watch.
Don't worry.
I'll help you find it.
Thank you.
