John woke up with a strange feeling that morning because he saw something strange in his dream. He did not really believe in dreams but he couldn’t stop thinking about the one he had just had. He had dreamt that he was in a foreign country and he was having a meeting with some people he did not know.

Джон проснулся со странным чувством в то утро, потому что во сне он увидел что-то странное. На самом деле он не верил в сны, но он не мог перестать думать о том, который только что увидел. Ему приснилось, что он был в зарубежной стране и встречался с какими-то людьми, который он не знает.

After he got ready, he left for his office and started doing his work as usual. A few hours later Mr Fulham, his boss, asked to see him. John was nervous. He thought that his boss would give him some bad news.

После того как он приготовился, он отправился в офис и начал делать свою работу, как обычно. Через несколько часов господин Фулхам, его начальник, попросил зайти к нему. Джон нервничал. Он подумал, что его начальник сообщит какие-нибудь плохие новости.
