Juan in Britain

Juan wanted to go to Britain to speak English with real English people. His sister’s husband was an English doctor and when Juan wrote to her , his sister . whose name was Rosa , invited him to stay with her. She met him at the airport in her English car and naturally spoke Spanish all the time. ‘Never mind’, he thought. ‘ the husband speaks English’. But this Englishman spoke Spanish and he liked Spanish food and a Spanish atmosphere when he came home in the evening. Juan’s sister had only Spanish friends and Juan did not speak a word of English. One morning about nine o’clock he attacked the milkman who was putting two bottles of milk on the doorstep.

He suddenly opened the door and said ‘ Good morning’. The milkman said ‘ Good morning’ and walked away. Finally, his big day came. One of Rosa’s friends had a party and invited Juan. At last he was going to meet real English people of his own age. He wanted to go up to people but could not. Suddenly a very beautiful girl came up to him and said, ‘ How lucky you are Spanish, I’m having a Spanish exam soon. I can practice with you.’ And she invited him to dance in Spanish. And two months later he went home quite happy!)))
