Mrs. Green lives in a small village. She has one son. He is 21 and his name is Geoff. He worked in a shop in the village and lived with his mother. But then he had a new job in a town and went there. It was very far from his mother's village, and she was not happy about this. But Geoff said, "There isn't good work for me in the village, mother, and I can get a lot of money in town. "Mrs. Green was very angry last Sunday. She got on a train and went to her son's house. Then she asked him, "Geoff, why do you never make a telephone to me?"Geoff laughed and said. "But, mother, you don't have a telephone. " she answered, "I don't have, but YOU have one! "
