Hi!
I found a couple of words in this story, which misspelled: "realise" (get the impression that someone is tapping my knees but then I realise that it’s the woman in front who is fidgeting. ) = "realize", and "neighbour" (It was then I said to my elderly neighbour in I suppose a rather loud voice (but you must remember she is having a problem with her hearing)...) = "neighbor".

Correct me if I'm wrong... Thanks :)

Those are the correct spellings in British English.

Hi Alan,

In the sentence ... "There will now be a short intermission" could you replace it for "Now there will be a short intermission" or "There will be a short intermission now"
Which is more colloquial?

Hi,

In this story which is very interesting, amusing and useful to understand the present continuous, there is something that was no clear for me, the title of the play: Mother knows best.

What does it mean? I’m supposing that it is something like: Mother always is right or Mother knows everything, or Mother always knows what it is more convenient for her children.

Could you explain the meaning?

Regards

'Mother knows best' is similar in meaning to 'Mother always knows what the right thing to do/be done is'.
