The Guest

‘The landscape seen from our windows is certainly charming,’ said Annabel; ‘those cherry orchards and green meadows, and the river winding along the valley. However, nothing ever happens here. Rather dreadful, isn’t it?’
‘On the CONTRAST / CONTRARY / INSIDE / OPPOSITE,’ said Matilda, ‘I find it soothing and restful; but then, you see, I’ve lived in countries where things do happen, especially when you’re not ready for them happening all at once.’
‘That, of course, makes a STATEMENT / SPLASH / MOVE / DIFFERENCE,’ said Annabel.
‘I’ll never forget,’ said Matilda, ‘the occasion when the Bishop of Bequar PAID / SENT / MADE / GAVE us an unexpected visit.’
‘I thought that out there you were always prepared for emergency guests turning TO / OVER / UP / IN,’ said Annabel.
‘I was quite prepared for half a dozen Bishops,’ said Matilda, ‘but it was rather disconcerting to find out that this particular one was a distant cousin of mine, belonging to a branch of the family that had quarrelled bitterly and offensively with our branch about a Crown Derby dessert service. To make ISSUES / MATTERS / PROBLEMS / SITUATION worse, my husband was away, talking sense to a village community that believed one of their leading men was a were-tiger.’
‘A what tiger?’
‘A were-tiger; you’ve heard of were-wolves, haven’t you, a mixture of wolf and human being and demon? Well, in those parts they have were-tigers, or think they have, and I must say that in this case they had every ground for thinking so. However, as we gave IN / UP / AWAY / OUT witchcraft prosecutions about three hundred years ago, we don’t like to have other people keeping up our discarded practices.’
‘I hope you weren’t unkind to the Bishop,’ said Annabel.
‘Well, of course he was my guest, so I had to be outwardly polite to him, but he was tactless enough to rake up the incidents of the old quarrel, and from that moment we were scarcely on speaking CONDITIONS / RELATIONSHIPS / RELATIONS / TERMS.
