The Past & The Future .

Mr. Haleem : The neighborhood sure has changed !

Kareem : What was this place like before , Grandpa ?

Mr. Haleem : Well , there used to be a grocery store right here on this corner . Hmm . It was pretty quiet . Nor many people lived here then .

Kareem : These days , the population is growing fast .

Mr. Haleem : Yeah . I bet they’ll tear down all these old buildings soon . In a few years , these will be just malls and high-rise apartments .

Kareem : Hey , that doesn’t sound bad !

Lou : Look at this . Some guy found  $ 750 ,000 ! He returned it and the owner thanked him with a phone call .

Kate : You’re kidding ! If I found $ 750 ,000 , I wouldn’t return it so fast .

Lou : Why ? What would you do ?

Kate : Well , I’d go straight to Las Vegas and try mu luck in the casinos . I could double the money in a day and keep $ 750,000 for myself .

Lou : You might also lose it all in a day . And then you could go to jail .

Kate : Hmm . You’ve got a point there .
