Family Matters

Oliver Darrow, actor, talks about his daughter, Carmen．

72 It might have been nice to have more. I would have liked a son，but we just had Carmen.

I see her as my best friend. I think she always comes to me first if she has a problem. We have the same sense of humour and share many interests，except that she’s crazy about animals，obsessed with them-she has always had dogs，cats，and horses in her life.

73 That’s when they need their parents most．But as soon as Carmen went to school，she seemed to grow up and grow apart from her family, and any father finds it difficult with a teenage daughter. She was very moody and had an odd group of friends. There was an endless stream of strange young men coming to our house. I remember I once got annoyed with her in front of her friends and she didn’t talk to me for days.

74 We sent her to a good school, but she wasn’t happy there. She left because she wanted to become an actress. So with my connections I got her into drama school. but she didn’t like that either. She worked for a while，doing small roles in films, but she must have found it boring because she gave it up，though she never really said why. She got married a few years ago; her husband’s a vet. They must be happy because they work together. and she loves animals.

We have the same tastes in books and music，When she was younger I used to take her to the opera-that’s nay passion-but she can’t have liked it very much because she hasn’t come with me for years. I don’t think she goes to the cinema or watches TV much. She might watch my films. but I don’t know. It’s not the kind of thing she talks to me about.

75 ．She’s a good daughter, but I don’t think she likes my new wife very much because she doesn’t visit us very often. I’m looking forward to being a grandfather one day. I hope she’ll have a son.

When Johnson called again, the manager received him very politely. “That is a most remarkable oil you brought us, Mr Johnson,” he said. Johnson nodded his smooth, dark head. That was something he knew very well.“I've never seen anything like it,” the manager admitted. Johnson nodded again.“No?” he said politely. Then he added, “But I think you will, sir. A very great deal of it.” He appeared to think for a moment. “I think you will find it will be on sale seven, perhaps, eight years from now.” He smiled.

The manager thought that was uncertain. He said, “It is better than our fish oils. I admit that.”“So I am told, sir,” agreed Johnson.

“Have you any plans to produce it yourself, Mr Johnson?” Johnson smiled again.

“Would I be showing it to you if I had?”

“We might add some chemicals to one of our own fish oils,” said the manager.“It would be expensive to do that, even if you could,” Johnson said gently.“Besides,” he added,“I am told that this oil will be much cheaper than your best fish oils. Cheaper than any vegetalbe oil, in fact.”

“Perhaps,” said the manage.“Well, I suppose you want to make an arrangement, Mr Johnson. Shall we discuss it?”

“Of course,” said Johnson. “There are two ways of dealing with a situation of this sort. The usual one is to prevent it altogether or at least to delay it as long as possible. That is, of course, the best way.” The manager nodded. He knew plenty about all that.

“But I am so sorry for you, because, you see, that is not possible this time.” The manager had his doubts, but all he said was an inquiring(asking), “Oh?”

“The other way,” continued Johnson,“is to produce yourself before the trouble starts.”

A.cheaper than the new oil B.more quickly

C.more expensive D.as good as the new oil

50.Johnson's new oil would be ______.
