In the airport

A few years ago, there were a lot of hijackings on aeroplanes, so now people
always search passengers and their luggage at airports before they let them
get into and aeroplane, because they do not want them to take guns or bombs
or other dangerous things on to the plane with them.
Mr and Mrs Smith were singers, and they travelled a lot. Whenever they went
by plane, people searched them and their luggage, of course.
One day, Mr Smith came to the airport, and the men searched him and his
luggage first. He was ready to get on the plane. Then Mrs Smith arrived.
Se was late and in a hurry, but the people searched her and her bag carefully.
Then Mr Smith heard her laugh and say to the men happily," Oh, that's very
good ! I've looked for those scissors for several days, and now you've found
them for me ! Thank you very much !

In the shopping

It was winter, and Mrs Hermann wanted to do a lot of shopping, so she waited
until it was Saturday, when her husband was free, and she took him to the
shops with her to pay for everything and to carry her parcels. They went to
a lot of shops, and Mrs Hermann bought a lot of things. She often stopped
and said ," Look, Joe ! Isn't that beautiful !"
He then answered," All right, dear. How much is it ? and took his money out
to pay for it.
It was dark when they came out of the last shop, and Mr Hermann was tired
and thinking about other things, like a nice drink by the said of a warm fire
at home. Suddenly his wife looked up at the sky and said," Look at that
beautiful moon, Joe !"
Without stopping, Mr Hermann answered," All right , dear. How much is it ?!!!"
