[00:13.48]Was Mrs. Rumbold a good companion at dinner?
[00:20.54]Last week at a dinner party, the hostess asked me to sit next to Mrs. Rumbold.
[00:28.42]Mrs. Rumbold was a large, unsmiling lady in a tight black dress.
[00:36.37]She did not even look up when I took my seat beside her.
[00:41.76]Her eyes were fixed on her plate and in a short time, she was busy eating.
[00:48.53]I tried to make conversation.
[00:53.49]'A new play is coming to "The Globe" soon,' I said.　'Will you be seeing it? '
[01:00.29]'No,' she answered.
[01:04.09]'Will you be spending your holidays abroad this year? ' I asked.
[01:11.00]'No,' she answered.
[01:15.83]'Will you be staying in England? ' I asked.
[01:20.34]'No,' she answered.

[01:30.35]'Young man,' she answered,'if you ate more and talked less, we would both enjoy our dinner!'
