THE GIRL ON THE

BUS
by William Sansom
(Abridged)

[Once leaving Haga,

a park in Stockholm, on
a winter day Harry met a
girl, trudging up on skis.
When she was quite
near him he glanced up
at her face, and the
beauty of the girl ___ his
breath ___ He immedi-
ately fell madly in love
with her. The girl cast a
glance at him, but he
never knew whether she
saw him at all, or looked
past or through him. But
the girl passed him and
soon disappeared, and
Harry remained there,
alone, with never a hope
to see again. On the next
day he was to leave this
country for England.
Naturally, he felt nerv-
ous, frustrated, dull.]

31
I remember distinctly I
once saw you in Haga,
you speak Swedish? You
see, my father and I —
we've lost our seat reser-
vations. Could you tell
me what is best to do? . .
. We're new here . . .
Harry's heart leapt.
The lights in the station
seemed to ___ ___, it
suddenly almost sunny.
With delight he showed
them to the end of the
train where he knew
there were empty car-
riages. Together they
travelled to London and
never stopped talking. He
insisted on driving them
to their hotel.
Harry and his lady
have now been married
some seven years. He has
never, so far as can be
known, regretted the re-
quital.

THE GOLDEN TOUCH

(Greek mythology)

Midas thought for a

while. "I am tired of col-
lecting my treasures with
so much trouble," he said
at last, "and still the heap
is so small after I have
done my best. I wish eve-
rything that I touch to be
changed to gold."
The stranger's smile
grew so very broad that it
seemed to fill the room
like a great sunbeam.
"The Golden
Touch!" exclaimed he.
"But, friend Midas, are
you quite sure that this
will satisfy you? Will
you never regret your
wish?"
"Of course not!"
answered Midas.

covering was now the

He hurriedly ___ ___his
clothes, and was happy
to see himself in a suit of
gold cloth, which was
still soft although rather
heavy, he thought. He
___ ___ his handker-
chief, made by little
Marygold. That was also
___ ___ gold.
This last transfor-
mation did not quite
please king Midas. He
remembered when
Marygold climbed on his
knee and put the hand-
kerchief in his hand. It
was her work, but now
he could not use it — it
was so hard.
Midas now took his
spectacles and ___ them

THE HOTEL STEFANI

by John Millington Ward

Paul shook his head

tiredly as he ___ the
steps of the hotel and got
back into the car. "No.
This one hasn't any
rooms either."
"Oh, dear," said
Patricia, crossing off the
name of the hotel from
the list in her hand. "I'm
beginning to despair.
This is the eighteenth
you've tried — and it's
nearly midnight. Do you
think we may have to
sleep in the car?"
Paul stopped the car
in front of the brightly-lit
and inviting-looking
building that he had seen
on the square, and the
two went tiredly but
gratefully into the warm
and friendly atmosphere
of the restaurant-cafe.
All the tables were
occupied.
As they ___ ___
them, a pleasant-looking
middle-aged man with
white hair___ from the
table at which he was sit-
ting, and beckoned to
say. We have a room
empty, it s true. But it
has been reserved."
He paused, and
Paul waited, with a sink-
ing feeling.” Yes, I think
you may have the room.
"Thank heavens!"
"Let me make sure whom
I'm speaking to, please.
I've telephoned so many
hotels. Let's see – yes –
you are Hotel Stefani,
aren't you?"
"That's right. The
Hotel Stefani."
"Where is your ho-
tel, please?"
"Right in the centre
of St. Moritz"
Paul left the tele-
phone booth and walked
happily back to Patricia.
The pleasant white-
haired man who had ___
___ his table for them
was also returning from
somewhere to his own
seat. Paul and he smiled
warmly at each other as
they sat down.
"Yes, my dear!"
said Paul, taking
Patricia’s hand and
squeezing it. "We’ve got
a room. We don’t have to
sleep in the car."
"Thank goodness!"

She fell better.
She halted a mo-

market, staring through

rich stacks of food in-

once stopped thinking.
She took a tray without

slowly on, her lips parted

face was slightly flushed
and she seemed hardly to

With the addition of
bottles of pickles and
tomato-ketchup, she

INTRODUCTION
PHRASAL VERBS

Phrasal verbs and

one-word verbs have
similar meanings.
Phrasal verbs are ex-
tremely common, more
expressive1 than the
synonyms they replace
,especially in spoken
English, and are used
more informally than
their Latinate synonyms,
e.g. use up vs. consume;
gather together vs. as-
semble; put out vs. extin-
guish. Phrasal verbs de-
fine only those combina-
tions that form an idiom,
a phrase the meaning of
which cannot be pre-

Prepositional Verbs
Prepositional verbs
are a group of multi-
word verbs made from a
verb plus another word
or words. Many people

51
 Prepositional verbs
cannot be separated.
That means that we can-
not put the direct object
between the two parts.
For example, we must
say "look after the baby".
We cannot say "look the
baby after":

Preposi Who This

Phrasal-
prepositional verbs are a
small group of multi-

refer to all multi-word
verbs as phrasal verbs.
Phrasal-prepositional
verbs are made of: verb
+ adverb + preposition.

An unhappy relation-

Veronica had al-

Before too long, he had
taken to her as well. He
was given to Italian food
and she cooked him lasa-
gne every week.
Unfortunately,
Philip's mother, Betty,
looked down on Veron-
ica. The main problem
was that Veronica
smoked heavily wherever
she went. This really got
on Betty's nerves, but it
didn't put Philip off.
One day, Betty,
who was afraid that Ve-
ronica wanted to get off
with her son, decided to
talk to Philip directly.
"How can you put

own children. They put
themselves out to feed
and clothe them and fall
over themselves to give
them a good start in life.
Most children put upon

know how your face
feels sucked dry after
one of those too fun,
late-late nights?
You're not just feel-
ing the effects of a
lack of sleep, they are
also showing up on
your skin. There's
really no other way
around making this
kind of investment in
your skin's health
other than setting a
bedtime and sticking
to it.
2. Hydrate it. Yeah,
yeah, yeah… there's
always going to be
some debate about
how much water you
should be drinking.
You will feel more
alert, which means
you will look more
alert. Don't be afraid

Text: Learning English
There are many rea-
sons for learning Eng-
lish. What I'm getting at
is that some learners may
need to put forward busi-
ness plans and hold forth
about different subjects,
while others from the
same companies may just
need to take down mes-
sages over the phone, put
down faxes and make up
short letters.
Teachers of general
English assume that
learners will want to put
across their basic re-
quirements, get over per-
sonal information, put
over their preferences
and opinions and take up
certain topics in conver-
sation or debate.
Teaching languages
often involves passing on
social skills such as cut-
ting in on other speakers.
