Question

Say what you think of:
a) Uncle Oscar
b) his wife:
c) his children
d) the kind of life Uncle Oscar led.

Answer 1

а) Uncle Oscar was a very nice man. he was an accountant (and by the
way, a very good one). He worked hard all day long and returned home rather late.

b) His wife’ s name was Agatha. Aunt Agatha was fond of talking and always talked too much and in a very loud voice.

c) Their two children, Elizabeth and Julian, were not very pleasant.
Both of them were large and loud like their mother. And they were selfish and greedy too. They didn’t think about their father much.

d) He liked music but didn’t play the piano, the violin, the flute or any other musical instrument. He practically never went to the theatre or to the cinema and he didn’t visit exhibitions or museums either. Uncle Oscar didn’t go in for sports. He was not fond of swimming, skiing or playing golf. You could never see him in the sitting room in front of the television watching sports programmes. Uncle Oscar never complained about his boring life.
I knew he had a hobby. He had a very good collection of stamps and was happy only when he worked on his stamp collection. He was a real collector.
