CHAPTER 1
Garden party
In the garden at 15 Greendale Avenue
It is Saturday the 28th of August, at the end of the summer. It is a hot, sunny summer afternoon. Today all the people who live at 15 Greendale Avenue are having a garden party together. There are seven flats in the big yellow building and today the neighbours are all here to get to know each other.
Abdi and Diana moved here last year. They sometimes talk with the neighbour who lives nearest them, Anna. She is very old and Abdi often helps Anna with her shopping bags. The bags are heavy, and he carries them up the stairs. Anna often invites Diana for tea and then Diana reads the newspaper to her. Anna can’t see very well, but she likes to know what goes on in the world.
The garden party starts at three o’clock. Paul and Susan live together in a big flat on the ground floor. They prepared everything for the party together. Paul works as a bus driver, but he loves to cook in his free time. He was very busy in the kitchen this morning.
“Welcome everybody,” Susan says. “It’s great to see so many of our neighbours here today. Please help yourselves to food and drinks. There are plates, knives, forks and glasses on the table for everyone. I hope you’re all very hungry and that everything tastes good.”
A young man called Jack lives on the third floor. He likes football and cricket a lot. He works as a builder. Now he looks a bit worried and asks:
“Where is Mr Brown from Flat 3? I don’t see him here.”
“I’m afraid he’s not well,” Susan answers. “I talked to him this morning. He can’t join us today.”
“I can bring some food to his flat later,” Jack says. “I want him to enjoy the party too.”
Diana walks around and talks to the other guests in the garden. Claire and Fiona fill their plates with food and look for a place to sit.
“Hello Claire,” Diana says. “How are you?”
“Fine, thanks. I see you don’t have much food on your plate today, Diana. Are you all right?” asks Claire.
“Well, you know how it is. I’m pregnant and I’m not very hungry. Just tired,” says Diana.
“Do you know Fiona? She lives on the second floor. Fiona moved in here with her dog Charlie last week.”
“Oh, hello and welcome! Nice to meet you, Fiona. Where are you from?”
“I’m from Ireland, but I moved here for work. I’m a midwife. So, you are pregnant? How long before the baby comes?”
“Yes, any day now! The due date is the 3rd of September!” Diana says and smiles.
“Where do you work now, Diana?” Fiona asks.
“I work in a supermarket, but I want to study to be a teacher. But now I am home most of the time, of course.”
“As a midwife, I think that is good! Be careful now. You need to take it easy and rest a lot.”
“That’s all I do. Abdi, my husband, is very helpful. He does all the housework every day.”

001 True or false
Write the answers in your notebook. Write T for TRUE and F for FALSE.
1. There is a party for everybody in the street.
2. Diana helps her neighbour Anna with her shopping bags.
3. Anna can’t read the newspaper because she can’t see very well.
4. Paul works in a restaurant.
5. Abdi and Diana prepared all the food for the party.
6. Jack lives on the first floor.
7. Fiona moved in last week with her cat.
Claire lives with her husband and two daughters next door to Fiona. Danny is with the girls in the playground and together they count one, two, three … as their dad pushes the swing higher and higher.
“…26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33…”
“Danny, please stop it!” Claire shouts and puts down her plate. “It’s dangerous! They can fall and hurt themselves.”
“Come on, Claire,” Fiona says. “It’s alright. It’s fun. Nothing bad can happen.”
Anna likes to sit in the shade under an old tree in the garden. It’s a hot day and she doesn’t like the sun. She can see everybody from there. Anna waves at Susan and asks:
“Susan, who is that tall man in the brown jacket over there? I don’t know him.”
“Maybe he’s Mr Brown’s son. You know Mr Brown is sick. I think the son is here to visit his dad. Can I get you some cake and tea or coffee now, Anna?” Susan asks.
“Yes, please, Susan,” Anna answers. “I’d like a cup of coffee and a small piece of cake.” Susan returns with the cake and coffee and joins Anna under the tree.
“Thank you, dear,” Anna says. “That was nice of you.”
“Not at all.”
“Tell me Susan, did you go to France on vacation, like you usually do?” Anna asks.
“Yes, we did!” Susan answers. “It was lovely and…”
Suddenly they hear a noise from the house. It is the sound of breaking glass. They see the strange man near the house. He has something in his hand.
He jumps over the fence and disappears. Susan gets up and shouts: “There’s a thief in our garden. Catch him!” Jack and Paul run after him, but it is too late. They go inside the house and look around. Paul looks for his computer everywhere, but he can’t find it. Now they all understand that the man in the brown jacket was not a guest – he was a thief. Paul calls the police immediately.
“Good afternoon. I would like to report a crime,” Paul says.
“What’s your name, sir?” the police officer asks.
“Paul Robinson.”
“Can you spell your surname, please.”
”It’s R-O-B-I-N-S-O-N.”
“Thank you. Now, please tell me what happened.”
Paul tells the police what happened and the police officer asks, “Can you describe the thief?”
“Not really. He was far away,” Paul answers. “We only know he was tall and that he had a brown jacket.”
“Well, it can be difficult to find the thief, but we always try our best.”
Paul puts the phone down and returns to the party. He tells the other guests what happened. Everybody feels sorry for Paul.
“Oh no, Paul. This is awful!” says Diana. “And a thief in our garden! It was a lovely party, but I feel like the baby is ready now. I think that Abdi and I have to go to the hospital!”
“Then this Saturday can still be a very good day,” Paul says. “A new life is more important than a computer. Good luck, you two!”
“Yes! And let us know when the baby is born!” says Claire.
