UNIT 5
Lesson 17
Exercise 1.2
He says he's too busy to spend time with us.
Then, when he is with us,
he's thinking about other things
and he's too nervous to enjoy himself.
It's like we're not important enough
or something.
Or his work is too important to him.
It's not fair.
He doesn't understand how things are today.
Things were different when he was a teenager
but he's too stubborn to see that.
It's not easy ot make him understand how I feel
What can I do?
I told him
"You're too young to have a motorcycle."
He says that all his friends have motorbikes.
But I know he's not old enough.
He's too young to ride a motorcycle on the road
in busy traffic.
But he won't listen to me.
She says one thing and then she says another.
For example, first,she complains
that we're not rich enough to buy a new car
like all her friends have.
Then she tells us that
we're too interested in material things.
So what does she really want?
It seems I can't win!
