Housing
Mrs. Green lived in a small flat公寓. She was old and did not like any noise at all. If there was a noise, she could not sleep. Above her flat, there lived a young couple. They always quarreled争吵 with each other until midnight, so Mrs. Green could not have a sound香甜的 sleep. So when the couple moved out, Mrs. Green was very happy. As a new young lady moved in, Mrs. Green thought, Yes, she looks very quiet.
But at four oclock in the next morning, Mrs. Green was woken up by the barking犬吠声 of a dog.
Nobody here keeps a pet, thought Mrs. Green, The dog must belong to the young lady in the flat above. So she telephoned the young lady, and said some unpleasant不客气的 words to her about the dog. And then, without waiting for her to say anything, she hung up the telephone and went to sleep again.
The next morning at three oclock the dog was barking again. Just then, Mrs. Greens phone rang. She answered it, and a voice said, Im calling to tell you that I dont have a dog.Dialogue 1

Victor: Yes, we got our own house at last. Well, where are we going to put the bed?
Helen: I think the bed should be put on the left. The best place for the table is here, beside the window.
Victor: Good suggestions! Wouldnt it be a good idea to place the sofa here, right in the middle?
Helen: No, itll look too crowded. It will be much better if we put the sofa in the living room.
Victor: OK. If the sofa is here, the TV will be there.
Helen:Thats right.Dialogue 2
