Mr. Jackson is having a meeting. He looks at
the clock on the wall. It is 7:45. "The last bus left fifteen minutes ago,"
he thinks. "I'll have to stay in a hotel tonight."
Mr. Jackson always drives home after work. He
lives outside the city. There is something wrong with his car, so today he has to
take a bus to his office.
The meeting is over. When he goes out of the
warm office, it begins to snow. He wants to have some warm food and soup first.
Most restaurants are full of people and he has to go into a small one. The waiter
shows(出示) him the menu(菜单).
"Some hot soup, please," says Mr.
Jackson.
Later,
the waiter brings the soup to him. When Mr. Jackson is drinking, he finds something
in it. "Come here, boy," he says. "Look, there is a hair in my soup!"
The waiter
says, "it's usually a fly(苍蝇) in the soup,
I remember."
