Lesson40 Food and talk
Last week at a dinner-party, the hostess asked me to sit next to Mrs. Rumbold. Mrs. Rumbold was a large, unsmiling lady in a tight black dress. She did not even look up when I took my seat beside her. Her eyes were fixed on her plate and in a short time, she was busy eating. I tried to make conversation.
A new play is coming to" The Globe" soon,' I said. 'Will you be seeing it ?' ' No,' she answered.
'Will you be spending your holidays abroad this year ?' I asked.' No,' she answered.
Will you be staying in England?' I asked. ' No,' she answered. In despair, I asked her whether she was enjoying her dinner.
Young man,' she answered,' if you ate more and talked less,we would both enjoy your dinner!'
