LIFE MEMORIES
Exercise 1: Read the text about “Life memories.” Answer the questions that follow.
My grandparents are always talking about what life was like in the past. I decided to talk to them one day to understand their ideas better. They said their lives were a bit slower. People were more relaxed about time and their responsibilities. My grandparents think people are running all the time. On a regular weekday, grandma was at home most of the time and grandpa was at work. Their children were at school most of the day, so they got together at night. They told stories and played games until it was time for them to go to bed. My grandparents always talk about their moments of conversation with their relatives and children.
“We were always
around, so we could talk to everybody,” they said. These days they feel families do not have time to get together and talk. Everyone seems to have their own schedule and agenda. One last thing my grandparents told me was about the special celebrations they had. People were always ready for those moments. They did not see that Christmas started in November as happens these days. They feel there was a moment for everything. They did not do anything in a hurry as happens with most festivities now. My grandparents concluded that they were happier when they were younger. They added that life does not have the same quality today.
