Time to Fish
A rich businessman was on holiday by the beach in Mexico when a small fishing boat docked nearby with just one man on board. Inside the boat were several tasty looking fish.
"That's quite a fine catch", remarked the businessman. "How long did it take you to pull those in?" "Only a little while", said the fisherman. "So why don't you stay out fishing longer and catch more fish?" said the rich man. "This is enough for my family", replied the fisherman.
"But what do you do with all the rest of your time?" asked the businessman. The fisherman said, "I sleep late, I fish a little, I spend time with my wife and play with my children. Then I rest in the afternoon. In the evening, I visit the rest of my family or stroll into the village where I have a drink with my friends. I have a full and busy life."
The rich man scoffed. "I have a business degree from one of the best universities in the world. I can help you. If you spent more time fishing, you could buy a bigger boat. With the profits from the bigger boat you could buy several more boats. Then instead of selling the fish to a middle-man you could sell the fish directly to the processor and increase your profit margin. Eventually, you could open up your own canning factory and become a wealthy business owner. Of course, you would have to leave this village by the sea and move to the capital and maybe even later to another country to manage your business."
"How long would all of that take?" the fisherman wanted to know.
"Oh, at least 15 years", replied the businessman.
"But what then?" asked the humble fisherman.
The businessman laughed and said, "That's the best part. Then you could sell your company. You could make millions. Then you could retire to a little village by the sea", where you could sleep late, you could fish a little, spend time with your wife, play with your kids, then rest in the afternoon. In the evening, you could stroll in to the village and have a drink with your friends. You see how wonderful things would be!"
Ex. 12 Complete the blog with the correct form of the verb in brackets and express your own opinion. On what condition our world would be a better place to live in?
A World without Science?
Call me crazy, but do you ever think the world … (be) a better place if we …. (not have) science or scientists? Think about it.
If scientists … (not exist), we ... (not be able) to build factories: and if there … (be) no factories, we … (not manufacture) weapons - so war ... (be) impossible. Also, if all the factories in the world … (stop) working, the air … (become) clean again, no more pollution! But what about medicine? Don't we depend too much on drugs? Maybe we … (be) healthier if we …. (not take) a painkiller every time we have a headache!
As I say, you can call me crazy if you like, but that's my opinion! What do you think?
