In the center of the main road into the town he placed a very large stone. Then he hid behind a tree end waited. Soon en old man came along with his cow.
"Who put this stone in the center of the road?" said the old man, but he did not try to remove the stone. Instead, with sane difficulty he passed around the stone and continued tm his way. Another man came along and did the same thing, then another came, and another. All of them complained about the stone in the center of the road but not one of them tried to remove it. Late in the afternoon a young man came along. He saw the stone and said. "The night will be very dark. Sane neighbor will come along later in the dark and will fall against the stone."
The young man then began to move the stone. He pushed and pulled with all his strength to remove it. How great was his surprise at last when, under the stone, he found a bag of money and a piece of paper with these words: "This money is for the first honest man who removes this stone from the road."

M: Actually, he was both highly intelligent and very rich. At first, Frida's father was against her marrying Diego because he was from an infamous family. But later on he agreed to it because he couldn't pay his daughter's medical expenses any more. Frida must have spent a fortune on doctors and operations over the years.
W: Oh, yes, what a terrible life first polio and then that awful accident. It's amazing she produced so many paintings, isn't it?
M: Yes, she must have been an incredibly brave woman.
W: But the marriage didn't work out too well, did it?
M: Well, it had its ups and downs.
W: She painted this one with the cropped hair while they were separated, didn't she?
M: Yes, that's right.
W. She really looked like a man here. In fact, she looked as if she's got a moustache! And why was she dressed in a man's suit? I thought it might have had something to do with women's liberation. You know she cut off her hair to symbolize equality or something.
M: Er, no the reason she cut off her hair and put on a man's suit is because Diego Rivera loved her long hair, and also loved the traditional women's Mexican dresses she used to wear. She did it to hurt him.

Conversation Two
W: I'm so worried about Mark these days. Ever since he moved into his apartment, he has been losing weight. He really doesn't look well at all.
M: He should try to gain some weight. He is probably not eating enough.
W: Well, anyway, how is Tim these days?
M: Tim? Oh, Tim has been worried, too. He is really getting much too fat. He needs to lose about 75 pounds now.
W: That's a lot of weight to lose. What does Tim eat?
M: I really don't know. But I am sure he is eating too much cake and candy.
W: Well, did I tell you Mark doesn't eat any meat now? He only eats vegetables and fruit.
M : That's probably why he is so thin. Does he smoke?
W: Does he smoke? About two packs of cigarettes a day. That's my son, a smoking vegetarian.
M: En, if he stops smoking, he would gain weight. I know he would. Tim put on a lot of weight when he stopped smoking.
W : Does Tim play any sports?
M: Play sports? Oh, my! I keep telling him, "Tim, dear, you really need to get some exercise." And you know what he does? He just gets angry.
W: I know Mark doesn't take exercise, either.
M: Did you tell him?
W: Of course, but you know what it is like being a mother of a 13-year-old boy. They just don't think they need your advice anymore. I wish Mark could find a nice girlfriend to relax and have fun with. I heard Tim has a girlfriend at last. That's wonderful.

A.Since he found a girlfriend.
