　　M: Most of our customers are foreigners. How many foreign languages

　　W: Well, French was my best subject at school. I can read and write

　　it pretty well.

　　M: And how about your Spanish?

　　W: Well, it's not as good as my French. I can speak it reasonably

　　M: Jane and Sally are friends. They are both married and they are

　　very proud of their husbands. One day, they met each other and they

　　started talking about their husbands. According to Jane, her

　　husband is big and strong and handsome. He is also very much of a

　　sportsman⁴. He can swim and ski, and he can play several ball games

　　such as football and cricket⁵. Sally's husband, however, seems to be

　　just the opposite. He is physically⁶ neither big nor strong, but he

　　excels⁷ in intelligence. He is good at languages and can speak six

　　languages, including French, German, Italian, Spanish, Arabic, and

　　Japanese. Besides, he is much of a funnyman. He can cook, sow, and

　　iron. Indeed, as Sally puts it, he is a good husband.
