EXERCISE

Sally left home when she was 18. She didn’t want to go to university, so she went to work in a book shop in London. One day, a customer came to the store. His name was Bill. He liked Sally, and asked her out.

They went out to dinner and had a nice time. Bill told Sally that he worked in a bank in the financial district. Sally smiled and said that she hoped she would see him again.

Nobody is sure how it happened, but Sally and Bill fell hopelessly in love, and ended up getting married. They moved into a small flat together, and paid incredibly high rent for a few years, until Sally announced that she was pregnant.

Bill asked for a loan from the bank so they could buy a nicer flat in a friendlier neighborhood outside London, and a few months later Sally had her baby. They named the baby Andrea
