Lee el texto en inglés A2

Clara booked a table for dinner with her friend Ana. She arrived early, chose a seat near the window, and looked at the menu while she waited.

At seven fifteen, Ana still had not arrived. Clara felt disappointed because Ana was usually on time. Before getting angry, she sent a short message: “Are you close?”

Ana replied immediately: “Yes. I’m inside the restaurant on Green Street.” Clara read the message twice. Her restaurant was on King Street, not Green Street. Both places had the same name and the same red sign outside.

Clara called Ana and started laughing before she could explain. “I’m in the wrong restaurant,” she said. Ana laughed too and told her to come over because the table was still free.

Ten minutes later, Clara arrived. The mistake became the first story of the evening, and both friends agreed to send the full address next time, not just the name of the restaurant.
