3 A. Read the text and complete it choosing the appropriate words.
In a suburb of London two friends had houses standing (1) next to each other. Their wives became friends too. They were (2) in short all friends together.
They were also rivals, the Smiths and the Robinsons. Oh! in the nicest, most (3) harmless way. They were gardeners. If the Smiths succeeded with roses, the Robinsons immediately did the same. If the Robinsons (4) managed to grow some beautiful plant thus showing that they had the greenest of green fingers, the Smiths wanted to show at once that their fingers were no less green. If one family bought some new garden furniture, the other made sure that their garden chairs and benches were not worse.
And then, one day, Mrs Smith had a “wonderful” idea. (5) at the weekend, she and her husband dug a very large (6) hole in the middle of the garden. The Robinsons waited to see what their neighbours were going to do with it. “Lily pond, do you think? or perhaps a gold fish pond?” But the Smiths did (7) nothing with what they had dug. After several agonizing weeks the Robinsons decided that they should have the same kind of thing in the middle of their own garden. The only problem was that the Robinsons hated digging. So Mrs Robinson wrote to a well-known firm of landscape gardeners.
