Vocabulary 63 - B1

Herbert sat at the kitchen table, trying to concentrate. Margot was reading the newspaper.

“I need to focus, Margot,” Herbert sighed. “This safety inspector exam is important. I need to graduate from trainee to full inspector. More money means more donuts!”

Margot looked over her glasses. “Well, maybe if you weren’t thinking about donuts, you’d actually concentrate. Brian needs new shoes. He can't graduate to the next size up if he doesn't have them”.

Herbert groaned. “Shoes, exams, it never ends. At least we have plenty of food. Did you see those muffins I bought?”

Margot pointed at an article. "Look at this ad for the apartment complex on Willow Creek, Herbert. It's a new entry to the Oakhaven market."

“Why are you looking at apartments?” Herbert asked, confused.

“Just thinking ahead. Our rent is going up again next year. Maybe we should see what else is available.” Margot said with a sigh. “It's important to plan.”

Herbert shuddered. “More planning? More exams? I need another muffin.” He stood up, forgetting his books entirely.

Later that day, Brian was trying to concentrate on his homework. Laura walked into his room.

“Brian, are you actually studying?” Laura asked, surprised.

“Trying to,” Brian replied. “But it's hard. This math is boring. Once I graduate from middle school, I am done with math.”

Laura laughed. “Good luck with that. You’ll need math for…everything. And guess what? Mom says we have plenty of time to clean the garage this weekend."

Brian groaned. "I am not going to enter the garage. It will be a struggle to get me through the entry way of that old place."

“It’s not so bad! And we could use the extra space. If we found a better, bigger place we would not need to clean the garage! " She paused. "Did you know that our rent is going up next year?”

Brian looked up. “Really? Does that mean we have to move?”

“Maybe,” Laura said. “That’s why we should clean the garage. To show we’re responsible tenants!"
