A Day Off Work
Last Wednesday morning Bill rang Mr. Thomson, his boss,
at the office and said that he was not well. "All right,” said his
boss. "You may stay in bed today if you are not well.” Mr.
Thomson liked Bill very much. At lunch time he bought some
fruit and took it to Bill. Bill thanked him and said he would be
able to come the next day.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon Mr. Thomson locked his
office door and switched on his portable TV set. He wanted to
watch an important international football match. It was
England against Brazil. Both teams* were playing well. It was
very exciting. At 3.20 England scored a goal** Mr. Thomson
jumped out of his chair. He was very excited. He was smiling
happily. When suddenly the cameraman focused on the crowd,
Mr. Thomson stopped smiling and looked very angry. Bill's
face was there on the screen. He didn't look ill at all.
