Martin Lynch, an American businessman, had been going on vacation to a small Mexican fishing village for a number of ears. One morning while going for a walk along the beach, he saw his friend Pablo Perez, a local fisherman. Martin watched Pablo unload his boat and pack the fish in a box.

Martin noticed Pablo was smiling and looked very happy. He could also see several large fish in the boat. Martin greeted Pablo and asked how long it took to catch the fish. “Just a few hours,” replied Pablo. Martin asked, “Why didn’t you stay longer and catch more fish?” “I have enough for my family,” Pablo said. “And what do you do with the rest of your day?” asked Martin. “I take a nap, play with my children, spend time with my wife, and go into the village to see my friends and play cards, I have a full and busy life.” Martin explained that if Pablo worked longer hours and caught more fish, he could make more money. With the extra money, Pablo could buy more boats and catch money more fish. By selling the fish, Pablo could open his own factory and sell direct to supermarkets.

“Then what?” asked Pablo. “Well you would probably have to move to Mexico City to run the business. Finally, you would be able to sell your business and make millions of dollars,” replied Martin. “How long will that take?” asked Pablo.

Martin thought for a while and said it would probably take at least 15 years. “And then what” asked Pablo.

“Well, that’s the best part,” Martin said. “You will be able to retire, buy a house near the ocean, sleep longer, play with your children, spend more time with your wife, see your friends, and play cards.”

A survey has been published which shows that British people don’t like their neighbors very much. 80% of the people who took part in the survey feel that their neighbors h 76 pay attention to others’ feelings. 25% don’t talk to the people who live next door and 10% don’t even know their names. In fact, one million people in Britain would like to m 77 because they don’t get along well with their neighbors.

According to the survey, the b 78 problem is noise. Many of the complaints about noise came from people who live in flats and old houses. These places often have thin walls which can’t s 79 the noise from next door.

The other main problems are disagreements about car parking spaces, and old people complaining about the young. Some disagreements l 80 a long time. In one case, people who live in the same building haven’t talked to each other for fifteen years. Sometimes the disagreements e 81 in violence. In one of the worst cases, a man killed a neighbor because he kept larking(嬉闹) in “his space.”

Another survey shows that 90% of the neighbors never s 82 a meal, 80% have never had a drink together and 20% have never even s 83 . However, when neighbors become each other’s friends, they are often ready to offer help, as we can see in many p 84 of the world. One solution to such problems is to talk about them with a professional organization and, if n

85 , to sign a written agreement. Now people can get this service in more and more towns.
