A man dirning with a friend explained the peculiarities of the restaurant they were in:"The waiters never admit they don't have something. They'll take your order. for a slice of sun and too away as if they mean to get it...then they'll come back and say they just ran out.”
一位和朋友吃饭的男士解释他们在饭馆里吃饭的怪现象时说:“服务员从未承认过他们没有什么莱。假如你想要一份太阳，他们也会拿着菜单离去，好像真能给你弄来似的。然后，他们回来说这道菜刚卖完。”为了证明这一点，我说:“请来一份恐龙。”

To prove his point，he said to the waiter,“The dinosaur，please.” 
“好的，先生，”服务员回答说:“您要的恐龙是做得嫩点还是老点儿的?”

“Yes，sir，“answered the waiter.”And how would you like it cooked?"
“老点儿的。”
