English Level A2 | Short stories | 103. TOO OLD FOR CHILDREN
Mrs. Jones was a kindergarten teacher.
She was not happy with her life.
She used to love children, but now she couldn’t stand them.
Mrs. Jones thought they were too loud.
“All they can do is shout or cry,“ she complained.
“I’m too old for this now.“
It was time to retire.
Mrs. Jones bought a house by a lake.
She was going to live the quiet life she wanted.
But Mrs. Jones still wasn’t happy.
Her new house was too quiet.
She missed the children.
Mrs. Jones decided to buy a rope.
She hung it on a tree by the lake.
Every weekend, the children went to her house.
They swung into the lake.
She always joined them.
Миссис Джонс работала воспитательницей в детском саду.
Она не была довольна своей жизнью.
Раньше она любила детей, но теперь терпеть их не могла.
Миссис Джонс подумала, что они слишком громкие.
«Все, что они могут сделать, это кричать или плакать», - жаловалась она.
«Я уже слишком стар для этого».
Пришло время уйти на пенсию.
Миссис Джонс купила дом у озера.
Она собиралась жить той тихой жизнью, которой хотела.
Но миссис Джонс все еще была недовольна.
В ее новом доме было слишком тихо.
Она скучала по детям.
Миссис Джонс решила купить веревку.
Она повесила его на дерево у озера.
Каждые выходные дети ходили к ней домой.
Они прыгнули в озеро.
Она всегда присоединялась к ним.
