Question

Un ama de casa prepara de comer mientras que su esposo lee el periódico. En el fondo del salón, el telediario da noticias sobre acontecimientos horribles. Sin embargo, la pareja, acostumbrada ya al bombardeo constante de noticias sobre escándalos, crímenes y tragedias, ni reacciona. Cuando se anuncia que ha comenzado la Tercera Guerra Mundial, el marido tampoco reacciona, y nos preguntamos si habrá algo más importante que una tortilla de dos huevos.

Answer 1

This is a short story called "La Tortilla".

Step-by-step explanation:

This story is about a housewife who is preparing some something to eat while her husband is reading the newspaper. Then, inside the room there is a telediario (It is a kind of tv program in which you can watch news) that informs about horrible events at that moment. However, this is something usual because telediario uses to show this kind of events (tragedies, crimes, scandals). When It is announced that the third world war has begun, her husband doesn't react. And they wonder if there will be anything more important than a two - egg tortilla.

-Tortilla is a kind of food that you prepare with eggs and then, you fry it.

Basically, this story is like a joke. There are some news and the wife and her husband are not interested in it. That's why they wonder if there is something more important than a two egg tortilla.
