Lesson 9 A cold welcome

On Wednesday evening, we went to the Town Hall.

It was the last day of the year and a large crowd of people had gathered under the Town Hall clock.

It would strike twelve in twenty minutes' time.

Fifteen minutes passed and then, at five to twelve, the clock stopped.

The big minute hand did not move.

We waited and waited, but nothing happened.

Suddenly someone shouted, " It's two minutes past twelve! The clock has stopped!"

I looked at my watch. It was true. The big clock refused to welcome the New Year.

At that moment, everybody began to laugh and sing.

Lesson 10 Not for jazz

We have an old musical instrument. It is called a clavichord. It was made in Germany in 1681.

Our clavichord is kept in the living room. It has belonged to our family for a long time.

The instrument was bought by my grandfather many years ago.

Recently it was damaged by a visitor.

She tried to play jazz on it! She struck the keys too hard and two of the strings were broken.

My father was shocked. Now we are not allowed to touch it.

It is being repaired by a friend of my father's.
