POOR JOE!

Some people really have bad luck. Joe is one of them. Everything he wants to do turns out

to be a flop (unsuccessful). For example, if he finds a pair of sneakers (athletic shoes) he

really likes, the shop won’t have them in his size or if he chooses the shortest line in a

supermarket, the others will always move faster.

Can you imagine what will happen to poor Joe in these situations? Write your answers in the

space provided.

1. If he sees a woman he really likes, she...

.

2. If he goes to the cinema,...

3. If he comes to classes,...
