A college teacher invited two businessmen and other friends to dinner at his home. One of the two men never (go) to school when he was young and was worried that he (can) not answer other men's questions correctly. But his friend (say), "Don't worry, Tom.Just do what I (do), and don't talk about anything if you don't under-stand it."
Everything went on quite well, but at the end of the evening Tom had a lot of drink and (begin) to get careless.
One of the guests (ask)him if he (like) Edison, and Tom (answer),"It (be) pleasant, but I (like)Scotch better."All the guests in the room (keep) quiet for a moment, and soon they began to leave. When the two men (be) out of the house, the friend said to Tom, " You certainly (make) yourself a fool because you (tell) us Scotch foolishly."
"What (do) you mean?" (ask) Tom. "What
(be) wrong with it?"
"We all know that Edison isn't a kind of drink,"his friend answered. "It is a kind of music."
