  - bill: you are wrong. plumbing isn’t difficult at all. some time ago i saw a plumber repair the piping of a house, so i think i know all the tricks, or most of them, at any rate. don’t forget that i once changed the washers of some of the taps here in our flat.
  - clara: how can i ever forget that? i couldn’t sleep the whole night. the dripping was worse than ever after you had finished the job. if i’m not quite wrong we had to call the plumber the next morning. he asked me afterwards what clumsy fool had tried to fix the taps.
  - bill: that was just bad luck. i know better now. i don’t need a do-it-yourself book to do this job. i’m a born handyman, you know. as you see, i’ve borrowed a pipe wrench from our helpful neighbour, and i found this adjustable spanner in my toolbox. and of course, i need a bucket. look closely now. you can learn a lot.

### D. Tâches

#### 1. Write "true" or "false" according to the text.

1. **Bill thought he needed no repairer's help.**  
**True.** Bill believed he could manage the plumbing himself without a plumber.

2. **Bill accepted his wife's suggestion to call a skilled worker.**  
**False.** Bill cut Clara short and insisted he could do it himself.

3. **For Bill, plumbing is a hard job.**  
**False.** Bill said, "plumbing isn’t difficult at all."

4. **Bill was a very good repairer.**  
**False.** The text implies Bill was not skilled; his first repairs made the dripping worse, and they had to call a plumber afterwards.

---

#### 2. Answer the questions based on the text.

1. **Why did Bill’s wife say they should call a plumber?**  
Because Bill was not a skilled worker and it would be safer to have a professional handle the blocked sink.

2. **What was wrong in Bill's kitchen?**  
The kitchen sink was blocked.

3. **Could Bill's wife rest quietly the day Bill repaired the washers in her room?**  
No, she couldn’t sleep because the dripping got worse after Bill fixed them.

4. **Quote a passage from the text to justify your answer.**  
"Clara: how can i ever forget that? i couldn’t sleep the whole night. the dripping was worse than ever after you had finished the job."

**Bill :** Avons-nous besoin de plombiers ?

Bill pensait qu'il était un homme à tout faire et qu'il pouvait réparer presque tout ce qui devait être réparé. Il était donc sûr de savoir quoi faire lorsque son évier de cuisine s'est bouché un jour. Sa femme pensait qu'il serait plus sûr d'appeler un plombier. Après tout, Bill n'était pas un travailleur qualifié. Mais Bill la coupa net.

**Bill :** Tu as tort. La plomberie n’est pas du tout difficile. Il y a quelque temps, j'ai vu un plombier réparer la tuyauterie d'une maison, alors je pense connaître toutes les astuces, ou du moins la plupart. N'oublie pas que j'ai déjà changé les joints de certains robinets ici dans notre appartement.

**Clara :** Comment pourrais-je oublier ça ? Je n’ai pas pu dormir de toute la nuit. Le goutte-à-goutte était pire que jamais après que tu as fini le travail. Si je ne me trompe pas, nous avons dû appeler le plombier le lendemain matin. Il m’a demandé ensuite quel imbécile maladroit avait essayé de réparer les robinets.

**Bill :** Ce n'était qu'une mauvaise chance. Je sais mieux maintenant. Je n’ai pas besoin d’un livre de bricolage pour faire ce travail. Je suis un bricoleur né, tu sais. Comme tu le vois, j’ai emprunté une clé à molette chez notre voisin serviable, et j’ai trouvé cette clé anglaise réglable dans ma boîte à outils. Et bien sûr, j’ai besoin d’un seau. Regarde bien maintenant. Tu peux apprendre beaucoup.
