| (M: Mike and J: John are having dinner in a cafeteria.) |
| M: |
John, let's take the table in the center, OK? |
| J: |
Why? It is so noisy over there. |
| M: |
But we can have a better view of the TV. You know, the baseball game will be on in a minute. |
| J: |
OK! After you. |
| M: |
Hey, do you know what these are on my plate? |
| J: |
Yes, you¡¦ve got potatoes fried in vinegar, two beef balls and peas with squid. Why? |
| M: |
I've had these before. They are very good, but I don't know what they are exactly. I always have this problem when I have Chinese food. |
| J: |
I know how you feel. When I go to a western buffet, I also have difficulty in recognizing the food. Don't worry, Mike, you will soon find out that the cafeterias on campus have the same dishes all the time. |
| M: |
By the way, why do Chinese always drink hot soup after a meal? |
| J: |
Beats me. Do you know why Americans have soup before the main course? |
| M: |
Well, no. We are asking too many questions. The ball game has just started. Let's watch it. ¡@ |
