Mr and Mrs Atkinson sat at the breakfast table. The toast was in its usual place, to the left of the

teapot. And Mr Atkinson, as usual, wasn't in a A21good mood. He was watching the

news on TV as he chewed a piece of toast. Mrs Atkinson tried to cheer him A22up,

as she did every morning, usually without much success.

'I A23 had a very strange dream last night,' she said. 'You won the lottery.'

'Hmm?' Mr Atkinson responded, without taking his eyes from the TV screen.

'Yes,' his wife continued. 'You won millions of pounds and bought us a lovely house in the country.'

'No chance of that while I'm working for Simpson's,' he said. His wife A24 paid no

attention to his negative comment.

'Wouldn't it be wonderful, though, to live in the countryside, instead of in this flat?' Mr Atkinson

smiled at the thought.

'Yes, it would be nice,' he said, before he frowned once more. 'But we'll never be able to

A25afford it.' He stood up and went to collect his coat and briefcase. Mrs Atkinson

sighed. Every week she bought a lottery ticket, and every week she checked the numbers. Of course, every week she was disappointed. She thought that maybe it was time to

A26give up and just accept that this was her life. She sighed again. The TV news was

A27coming to an end.

' ... and finally, here are this week's winning lottery numbers ... 17, 28, 29, 37, 40 and 42.'

Mrs Atkinson went white. She A28held her breath for a moment, then walked over to her desk. She opened a drawer and, very calmly, pulled out a small piece of paper. It was a lottery ticket. Mr Atkinson came back into the room.

'Right. I'm off. I shouldn't be too late, so ... Wendy, are you all right?' Mrs Atkinson handed him the lottery ticket and then very slowly sat down. She buttered a slice of toast and chewed thoughtfully.
