Mrs. Yamamoto (Y) is talking with Mrs. Haraguchi (H) in front

                of her house.


                Y:



                      Haraguchi-san no musuko-san wa kōkō no ongaku no sensei ni

                      narareta sō desu ne.
                      Mrs. Haraguchi, I heard that your son became a music
                      teacher at a high school.



                H:



                      Ē. Baiorinisuto ni naritagatte ita n desu ga, kyōshi ni narimashita.
                      Yes. He wanted to be a violinist, but he became a

                      teacher.


                Y:

                      Demo, kyōshi no hō ga tanoshii ka mo shiremasen yo.
                      But it may be more fun to be a teacher.



                H:



                      Sō desu ne. Baiorinisuto ni natte itara, taihen deshō kara ne.
                      Right. It would be very tough if he had become a

                      violinist.


                Y:

                      Sō desu ne. Doko no kōkō de hataraite iru n desu ka.
                      Right. Where does he teach?



                H:

                      Takagi kōkō de hataraite imasu. Otaku no musuko-san wa?
