[00:01.080] --- Lesson 38 Everything except the weather
[00:08.360] --- First listen and then answer the question.
[00:14.080] --- Why did Harrison sell his house so quickly?
[00:21.680] My old friend, Harrison, had lived in the Mediterranean for many years before he returned to England.
[00:32.440] He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settle down in the country.
[00:40.960] He had no sooner returned than he bought a house and went to live there.
[00:47.400] Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather,
[00:52.320] for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold.
[01:01.680] After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock.
[01:07.600] He acted as if he had never lived in England before.
[01:12.120] In the end, it was more than he could bear.
[01:16.600] He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country.
[01:23.240] The dream he had had for so many years ended there.
[01:28.160] Harrison had thought of everything except the weather.
[01:34.160] --- end
