Access to English - Starting out - 14 - ON THE RIVER (text)

2013.03.03. 23:31 aforizmágus

Arthur got up early on Saturday morning. He had a shave and put his clothes on. He doesn’t put his suit on when he isn’t working. He opened his drawer and took out his light-coloured trousers. He put his suit on a hanger and hung it up in the wardrobe, and then closed the wardrobe door.

  He went downstairs and switched on the radio. He wanted to hear the weather forecast. What was the weather going to be like? The forecast was good - sunshine, clear skies and high temperatures. Arthur was pleased about this. Then he switched the radio off and went into the kitchen for breakfast.

  After breakfast he rang Mary up. He told her the forecast was good and asked her about the food for the picnic. She asked him to do the shopping because she was busy.

  So Arthur went to the supermarket and bought some cheese, ham and tomato sandwitches, some pickled onions and some fruit. After that he went to the off-licence and bought some drinks. This weekend, of course, he had enough money for all these things. Usually he is too broke.

  At too o’clock sharp Arthur got off the bus outside the Town Hall. He had his bag with him with the sandwiches, drinks, and the rest of the food. The others were not there yet. Arthur was the first. It was a very hot afternoon.

  After about three minutes, Sheila and Michael arrived. Michael had a picnic basket with cold chicken in it, some French bread and a bottle of wine. They waited for another two minutes and then Mary appeared. She looked very beautiful.

  They all walked down to the bridge and hired a boat for the afternoon.

- Who’s going to row?

- I can row first if you like.

- All right, then I can steer.

- Yes, and you can sit in the front with me, Arthur.

- Which way are we going?

- Let’s go dowstream to the island, the one with the trees on it. We can have our picnic there. It isn’t too far.

- Have you got enough room, Shelia? It isn’t too uncomfortable for you, is it?

- No, there’s plenty of room for us both here, isn’t there? The seat’s quite wide enough. I’m not too big, am I, Arthur?

- No, I suppose not.

- Everybody comfortable? Right, off we go.

***

- What are those sandwiches like?

- Very nice. Would you like one?

- Yes, please. Thanks.

- Do you want some pickled onions?

- Are there any?

- Yes, there are some over there.

- Have another sandwich, Arthur?

- No, thanks, I’ve got one already.

- What about some wine, then?

- I’ve got enough here, thanks.

- What about Mary, Shelia? And me? We’d like some.

- Oh, haven’t you got any? Sorry. Here, pass your glasses over. There you are.

- Thanks.

***

- Have you been here before, Mary?

- Yes, I came here a fortinght ago actually.

- It’s getting a little chilly now, I think.

- Yes, it is. I’m not really warm enough.

- Here, take my sweater.

- Thank you.

- Perhaps it’s time to go back now. It’s a bit cloudy too, isn’t it?

- Yes, I think it’s going to rain soon.

- Yes, let’s go.

- Hey! Where’s the boat?

- Who tied it up? It was you, Arthur, wasn’t it?

- Yes, I’m sorry. Look, there it is on the other side of the river.

- Never mind, Arthur.
