A. Answer these questions.
1. Why was the clerk very late one morning?
2. In what ways did he hurt himself when he fell?
3. Why was the manager angry?
4. Did falling out of the window take the clerk an hour?
5. What took him an hour?
The clerk was late one morning because he slipped and fell out of the window while closing it.
He hurt himself in several ways: he had bruises on his face, a scratch on one of his lips, sticking-plaster on his left wrist and thumb, a bandage on his right shoulder, and he hurt his knees, ankles, and some of his toes.
The manager was angry because he had been waiting for the clerk, as he had some work to give him.
The manager implied that falling out of the window should not have taken the clerk an hour.
The clerk's injuries and the events surrounding his fall took him an hour.
