The party began shortly after Mr. Wood, who lived in the flat below, signed to himself as he heard excited voices and the noisy music. Luckily he had
1 some work home from the office,
2 he kept himself busy for a couple of hours, thus managing to pay no attention to the noise
3 . But by eleven o’clock he felt
4 and was ready to go to bed, though from his earlier experience he knew it was
5 trying to get to sleep. He undressed and lay for a while on the bed, trying to read, but he
6 himself reading the same page over and over again. He then turned off the light and
7 his head in the pillow. But
8 he could not shut
9 the noise, finally, after
10 seemed hours, his
11 was gone.
He jumped out of bed,
12 some clothing, marched
13 up the stairs, and walked into his neighbor’s flat. The owner of the flat, who
14 him in his dressing gown, came
15 the room and,
16 Mr. Wood could say anything, cried, “My dear fellow, come and
17 . I know our parties
18 you. I meant to send you
19 .” Mr. Wood’s anger disappeared then and there. He said, “I’d better go and get
20 .” Minutes later, he returned, properly dressed, only to find that the party was nearly over.
