I’d like to describe a time when my neighbour talked about something I wasn’t interested in. His name is Mr Farooq, and he’s an elderly man who lives alone in the house next to ours in Lahore. Last winter my mother asked me to return a dish to him, and when I arrived he invited me inside for tea. It was a cold evening, and his small room was warm. Then he started to talk about repairing old radios. He showed me lots of small parts on his table and explained how each one works, for almost an hour. He told me that his father had taught him the job when he was twelve, and that he still keeps the first radio he ever repaired on a shelf. Honestly, technical things have never interested me, and I was bored to tearsИдиомалық өрнек дәл қолданылған and wanted to go home. But I kept listening because he lives alone and I don’t think anybody visits him often. I also remembered that my own grandfather died last year, and I’d have given a lot to hear his stories again.

I’d like to describe a time when my neighbour talked about something I wasn’t interested in. His name is Mr Farooq, an elderly man who lives alone in the house next to ours in Lahore. Last winter my mother asked me to return a dish to him, and when I arrived he invited me in for tea. It was a cold evening, and his small room smelled of tea and old wood. Then he started on the subject of repairing old radios. He laid out lots of small parts on his table and explained how each one works, for almost an hour. He mentioned that his father had taught him the trade at twelve, and that the first radio he ever repaired still sits on a shelf above his table. Honestly, technical things have never interested me, and I was bored to tearsИдиомалық өрнек дәл қолданылған and longing to go home. But I kept listening because he lives alone and I doubt many people visit him. I also thought of my own grandfather, who died last year, and how much I’d give to hear one of his stories again. He looked so animatedДәл сын есім таңдау while he talked that I couldn’t bring myself to disappoint him.
