1. Of course, I wasn´t very happy about him losing his job. We had a few sleepless nights, I can tell you, what with the mortgage to pay and two hungry kids to feed. But no one was to blame for what happened, and thankfully it all worked out in the end. I´m just glad it´s all over now. I don´t know how we´d managed to cope if he hadn´t been taken on at the power station.

2.WOMAN: Dave´s done well for himself, hasn´t he?

MAN:         Yes, well, it´s hardly surprising, is it?

WOMAN:    Why do you say that?

MAN:         Well, it was the same thing at school. Fortune always smiled on him. He passed exams with the minimum of effort and now he´s making money in the same way. He makes a few good decisions, invests in the right companies and bingo!  Suddenly he´s a millionaire. Still, it couldn´t happen to a nicer guy. No one deserves it more than him
