In the message she told me that she wants to get a new car. I don’t want her to get a new car! We don’t have enough money. I was between jobs for a while and I only got a new job last month. At my new job I only get $7 an hour. It’s terrible. I really need to get my boss to give me a raise. My wife thought that I got about $2000 a week, but if you times my wage per hour ($7) with the amount of hours I work (40) you only get $280. That’s right. A measly $280 a week is all I get. I have no idea how she got that information. This isn’t the first time she has gotten her facts wrong, though. The other day, my friends and I were playing cricket at the local field, and David hit the ball really hard. Ben tried to catch it, but he was unsuccessful and the ball got him right in the face. It was pretty funny. My team got 10 runs while David was on the ground holding his face. My team ended up winning the match. 180 - 170. Those 10 runs we got really made a difference. On Friday, when I was at work a few strange things happened. I normally get the bus, but this time I chose to get the train. When I was getting on the train we saw this guy on the platform steal a woman’s handbag. Luckily, there were some police there and they were able to get the guy before he got away . And the old lady got the handbag back. That morning at work was pretty normal, that is, until my boss came in. When my boss came in he looked really angry. He told me to get Mr. Tanaka on the phone right away, and I did so. He then spent the next 2 hours yelling at him in his office over the phone. It was really loud. I wonder what happened. In the afternoon something weird happened too. I asked my assistant to get me the ABC file, and she got angry – so, so angry. It was amazing. She completely lost it! It was a little scary, actually. That was the third time this month that she has lost her cool, and as a result she got into quite a lot of trouble. I don’t think she’ll get fired, but she’ll definitely get a warning from HR. I normally finish late, but today since my wife is getting home after me I’ll need to get dinner tonight. I wonder what I should cook. I honestly don’t feel like cooking though. I think I’ll just get takeout. 2 What does his wife want to get? 1. How much does he get an hour? 2. How many runs did his team get overall? 3. What happened while he was getting on the train? 4. Who did his boss tell him to get on the phone? 5. Who got into quite a lot of trouble? 6. What is he going to get for dinner? 7. How many examples of “get” can you find? 8. 1 2 Copyright 2013 DMA KK www.mydma.com Read the passage and circle the new words as you find them Answer the questions below
