“I’m hungry,” Pat said to his friend, Mike.“Let’s have a meal somewhere.”
They walked down the road until they came to an expensive restaurant.
“This will be fine,” Pat said.“Just the place we want.”
He opened the door and they went inside.The head waiter came up to them at once.
“A table for two?” he asked.
“Yes.The best table you have.”
He took them to a table near a window.He handed them the menu(菜单)and went away.
Pat and Mike looked at the menu carefully, then asked for the most expensive dishes.
An hour later, they had almost finished their meal.It was one of the best meals they had ever had, and now they were eating their last dish.
Suddenly Pat looked carefully at the dish.
“What’s this?” he cried, and pointed at something small and black in the dish.The head waiter hurried towards their table.
“Look at this!” Pat said to him in a very loud voice.“There’s a dead fly in my dish.How terrible!I thought this was a good restaurant, but I was wrong.”
The head waiter was very embarrassed(难堪的).“Please, sir, do not speak so loudly.I am so sorry about the fly.I’m afraid such an accident may happen, even in the best restaurants.You need not, of course, pay for your meal.”
Soon after this, Mike and Pat were walking past another restaurant.
“Let’s go in and have a drink,” Pat said.“I’ve got one fly left.”
