Final Test of ED Retake

Wrong Color

Today Ms. Green was very late for work. She waited for the delivery of her new chair. But the delivery man brought the wrong chair. Ms. Green called the store manager.

"I ordered a brown chair," she said, "not green!"

"Don't be angry," said the manager. "We all make mistakes, don't we?"

"Some people make bigger mistakes than others!" Ms. Green answered.

The manager found her order.

"Ha," he laughed. Another customer, Mr. Brown, ordered a green chair and got your chair instead. Isn't that funny?"

"No, it isn't. I want my chair. I paid enough money for it," said Ms. Green. "Come to the store now and get a different chair," he said.

But Ms. Green went to work instead. After work, she went to the store, but it was already closed. A handsome young man was also there.

"I'm late," he said. "Now I have to wait until tomorrow for my green chair."

"Are you Mr. Brown?" she asked. "Yes, but ... "

"I can help you with your chair," said Ms. Green. And she smiled for the first time that day.

Why was Ms. Green late for work?

• She had to go out and buy another chair.

• The delivery man brought her the wrong chair.

• The manager of the store spoke to her for too long.

Announcer: Welcome to "Sheila's Kitchen." Today's program is about salads. Good morning, Sheila.

Sheila: Hello, Mike. And good morning to all our listeners. When I was young, we ate green salads - lettuce or cucumbers - with some salt and a little lemon juice. My mother served the salad with meat, chicken, and fish. But today, salads can be your meal. Salads are healthy summer foods. And for dessert, some people like a fresh fruit salad. And now, a few words about Durelle plates and dishes. You can cook in them, bake in them, and freeze food in them, too. Buy Durelle products and enjoy them in the kitchen and on your table. They are strong enough for cooking. They are pretty enough for guests. Now let's return to our salads.

Dieters Are Feeling Great!

by Virginia Vegan

Kim Fit, the famous woman basketball player, introduced her "Fit Feels Great" diet book three months ago. Thousands of people are already losing weight. "They feel wonderful! This diet is healthy and safe. You don't need to buy special foods. Anyone can use my diet!"

David Meals is a 42-year-old businessman. He's doing the "Fit Feels Great" diet. "Before, I only ate a piece of cake for breakfast. Now I understand that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. The body needs energy after a long night without any food," he explains. Mr. Meals now eats some bread and some fat-free cottage cheese for breakfast.

Rock singer Maxi is doing Kim Fit's diet, too, and she feels terrific. Now, she never eats fried foods. She eats a lot of turkey and chicken; they have less fat than ham and steak. Maxi also doesn't use much salt. "I look ten years younger, don't I?" the superstar says.
