Barbara couldn't stand it any more. Her upstairs neighbour was playing the music too loudly again. She had asked him twice already to turn down the music. The first time she asked, he was surprised. He said he didn't know that she could hear his stereo(立体音响设备).
“Yes,” she said, “It's just like your stereo was in my living room.”
He said he would keep it down. She hoped that he was telling the truth. Of course, he wasn't. The next day, he played his stereo loudly again. She went upstairs to remind him of his promise. He said the sound was so low that he could hardly hear it.
She asked him to turn it lower. He said he would try. When she returned to her apartment, the music was louder than when she had walked upstairs.
So, this was the third time. She took her baseball bat upstairs with her. She knocked very loudly on his door. When he opened the door, she shouted at him like a crazy person. She told him she would call the policemen if he didn't turn the music down and keep it down. His eyes got big.
She went back downstairs. She couldn't hear any noise.
