    14.Noise Makers

    噪声制造者

    Agay young man， who earned his living as a drummer in a band， had just married， and he and his wife were looking for somewhere to live. They saw a lot of places， but there was always something that one of them did not like about them. At last， however， they found a block of new flats which both of them really liked. However， there was still the problem of whether they should take one of the ground-floor flats， which had a small garden， or one of the upstairs ones.

    At last they decided on a first-floor flat——not too low down and not too high up——and moved in. After they had bought furniture， carpets， curtains， and all the rest， they gave a big party to celebrate the setting up of their first home together.

    It was a gay and noisy party， as all the host's friends from the band came and played their instruments. The guests danced， sang and practised on their host's drums.

    Soon after one a.m. the telephone rang. The hostess went to answer it in the hall， and after she had finished， came back with a happy smile on her face and said to her husband，“That was the man who has just moved into the flat downstairs telephoning， dear.Iam so glad we decided not to choose it. He says it is terribly noisy down there.”
