My brother, John, is a college student. Last year he went to Italy and stayed for two months. I was surprised that John was able to have such a long holiday, because he never had any money.

“How did you manage it, John?” I asked. “I thought you were going to stay for two weeks.”

“It was easy,” John answered. “I got a job.”

“A job?” I asked in surprise. “What did you do?”

“I gave English lessons to a shop manager,” John answered.

“His name is Luigi. We have become good friends.”

“But you’re not a teacher,” I said.

“I told Luigi I couldn’t teach,” John explained. “But he insisted on having conversation(會話) lessons. He wanted to practice his English. He had a lot of American customers, so it was important for him to speak English. I spent three hours a day talking to him. In return he gave me a room, three meals a day and a little pocket of money.”

“Did your pupil learn much English?” I asked.
