Task 1. Read the text and use the correct forms of the verbs in brackets and make the text complete. A good neighbour

A friend who lived in Australia was told one day by his neighbour living across the road that he would be away in England for a few weeks. The man further explained that his house (decorate) at the moment but he (leave)2 the country the next day, as he (not see)3 his rich relative for a few years. He said he hoped his neighbour would look after his house properly.

The first week passed without any incident. Soon the decorators packed up and left. But the next day the good friend (catch)4 sight of two fellows at his neighbor’s door (pack)5 rolled-up carpets into their old van. “Hey,” cried the man, “what are you doing? I have been looking after the house for a week already and I don’t want my friend to get angry when he returns home.” The two fellows explained to him that the owner of that very old house (order)6 (clean)7 his Persian carpets while he was away. They managed to make him (believe)8 that it was true. The friendly man thought that his own carpets needed cleaning. He always was a bachelor and everything in his house suffered from his carelessness. So he agreed with two fellows that they would add the expense secretly to his neighbour’s bill. The happy carpet-cleaners laid all the carpets into their van and drove cheerfully away. While they (drive)9 they were making fun of the man they so cleverly (deceive)10. There is no need to say that neither of the neighbours ever saw their carpets again.​
