Page 34 - Exercise 1

Sweet Sue and Smart Alec have bought some new equipment for their offices.

Come on, Smart Alec. Let’s take the things that we’ve bought upstairs.

Just a minute, Sweet Sue. Somebody might steal the bag which you’ve left on your seat.

You shouldn’t leave it on the seat. You should lock it in the boot.

All right. Can we take the things to the offices now?

I’ll just leave these here, while I get the rest of the things that are still in the car.

You shouldn’t put things on the stairs, Sweet Sue. You might not see them. Then, you might trip over them and break your arm or your leg.

Later.

Well, I’ve finished. How are you getting on, Sweet Sue?

I’m just unpacking my computer, but it’s heavy.

No, no. Sweet Sue. You shouldn’t bend over when you lift things that are heavy. You might hurt your back.

Look. I’ll show you. You should bend your knees and lift with a straight back.

Later.

Thank you for your help, Smart Alec.

You’re welcome, Sweet Sue. Remember the things that I’ve told you and you won’t have any problems.

Aargh. My computer! My telephone! Everything’s gone! I bet it was the boy that I saw.

You shouldn’t give so much advice, Smart Alec. Then you might remember to lock your door. Ha ha!
