Lesson 27 Late for work
Text:
Mr. Johnson works in a company. He usually gets up at seven o'clock. Then he has breakfast, reads the paper and leaves his house at eight o'clock. Mr. Johnson is seldom late for work. Yesterday morning he got up a little late. So he didn't have breakfast. On his way to work, that was traffic jam. The cars and buses on the road could hardly move. Mr. Johnson had to wait for a long time. He got to his office at nine o'clock. Mr. Johnson felt very sorry. Fortunately, his boss wasn't angry at all. Because his boss was late for work, too.
