Mr. Brown had an interview for a job a week ago. He wanted to get the job very much but there was a big problem. Mr. Brown didn’t have enough practice. And what he wrote on his application form was not true. He was born in 1965, but he wrote 1968. He left school when he was sixteen, not eighteen. He worked as a tea-boy. He went to college in 1985. He got a diploma in business management. He didn’t go to University. It was his second job, not the third. He didn’t give good answers to the manager’s questions and didn’t get the job.
