--- Lesson 41 Do you call that a hat? |
| [00:09.120] |
--- First listen and then answer the question. |
| [00:14.960] |
--- What kind of shopping does the writer enjoy, do you think? |

'Do you call that a hat?' I said to my wife.^“ |
| [00:28.400] |
'You needn't be so rude about it,' my wife answered as she looked at herself in the mirror.^“ |
| [00:36.000] |
I sat down on one of those modern chairs with holes in it and waited. |
| [00:42.680] |
We had been in the hat shop for half an hour and my wife was still in front of the mirror. |
| [00:51.320] |
'We mustn't buy things we don't need,' I remarked suddenly. I regretted saying it almost at once.^“ |
| [01:01.080] |
'You needn't have said that,' my wife answered.^“ |
| [01:05.360] |
'I needn't remind you of that terrible tie you bought yesterday.'^“ |
| [01:12.680] |
'I find it beautiful,' I said. 'A man can never have too many ties.'^“ |
| [01:20.120] |
'And a woman can't have too many hats,' she answered.^“ |
| [01:25.920] |
Ten minutes later we walked out of the shop together.^10 |
| [01:31.120] |
My wife was wearing a hat that looked like a lighthouse! |
