Meanwhile Sven's wife, Silvia, was waiting for her husband to come home.
I was very worried when he didn't come home on Friday evening and I couldn't understand why his mobile wasn't going.
I phoned the police and they looked for him but they couldn't find him anywhere.
I thought maybe he was with another woman.
So Sven was in the lift the whole weekend from Friday evening until Monday morning.
Тем временем жена Свена, Сильвия, ждала возвращения мужа домой.
Я очень волновалась, когда он не пришел домой в пятницу вечером, и не могла понять, почему его мобильный не работает.
Я позвонила в полицию, и они искали его, но нигде не смогли найти.
Я подумала, что, может быть, он был с другой женщиной.
Так что Свен провел в лифте целые выходные - с вечера пятницы до утра понедельника.

At eight o'clock, when the office workers arrived, they phoned the emergency number and somebody came and repaired the lift.
I was very happy to get out.
I hadn't eaten since Friday afternoon and I was very hungry.
It's lucky that I am not claustrophobic because the lift was very small.
The first thing I did was to phone my wife to say that I was OK.
Sven will soon be the fittest man in his office - from now on he's going to take the stairs every day - even though it's twelve floors.
В восемь часов, когда прибыли работники офиса, они позвонили по номеру экстренной службы, и кто-то пришел и починил лифт.
Я был очень рад выбраться оттуда.
Я ничего не ел с пятницы и был очень голоден.
К счастью, я не страдаю клаустрофобией, потому что лифт был очень маленьким.
Первым делом я позвонил жене и сказал, что со мной все в порядке.
Свен скоро станет самым спортивным (пригодным) человеком в его офисе - с этого момента он собирается подниматься по (брать) лестнице каждый день - хотя это двенадцать этажей.

Read the article on men and women's shopping habits and mark ( ) sentences 1 to 6 T (True) or F (False).

A recent survey of shopping habits has discovered that the vast majority of men buy the same clothes from the same shop year after year.

Women are far more adventurous. To them, clothes shopping is exciting, a journey of discovery. They will go from shop to shop, often not looking for anything in particular, and not knowing what they are going to find. They will try things on, go off to another shop, come back, and try them on again. At the end of the day, they might come home with hundreds of pounds worth of clothes or with absolutely nothing. But for the most part, it will have been an enjoyable experience.

Men, of course, don't understand this. Just look at a man accompanying his wife when she goes shopping for clothes. He looks bored, tired, frustrated. Compare that with a woman shopping with her female friend, her sister, her mother.

According to experts, when it comes to shopping for clothes, men are driven by habit and tradition, and don't like having to think too much. When they go shopping, they have something they want to buy and they go to the shop where they know they will find it. Once in the shop, they know exactly where everything is - the shirts, the jeans, etc - and what brands they will find there. They don't like uncertainty.

'Men often feel uncomfortable or uncertain when clothes shopping,' a retailer says. 'A shop that they know can remove much of that discomfort. In a smaller shop in particular, the sales assistant will probably know his customer. He will know his size, the kind of things he likes. He will advise him. Most men prefer to buy brands that they know rather than try something new, but if the sales clerk has a customer's trust, he may even suggest something a little different.'

Shop owners will tell you that in these competitive times, it is essential to attract new customers. But they also realise the importance of the customers who come back year after year.

(1) Women always spend a lot of money when they go shopping. T / F /
(2) Women often return to a shop to try something on. T / F /
(3) Women don't enjoy shopping together. T / F /
(4) Men plan what they want to buy before they go out. T / F /
(5) Men feel uncomfortable getting advice from sales assistants. T / F /
(6) Shops think traditional customers are more important than new ones. T / F /
