At a restaurant,my husband and I had a waitress who was just now on the job.Four munutes after taking out order,she returned to say "sorry,will you tell me again?"And then she came back with nothing.We made another selection,but my husband's choice was sold out after she came back again.We ordered a third time.Ten minutes later she appeared ,looking nervous."I fotgot to put your order in." She frankly admitted.So we had no way just to wait for a forth time.We couldn't imagine how many times we could enjoy our meal.

在一家餐館里，為我和我丈夫服務(wù)的是一名新來的女服務(wù)員。在她把菜單拿走四分鐘之后，她返回來說：“對不起，你可以再說一次嗎?”然后她什么東西都沒拿就回去了。我們挑選了另一道菜，但是，當(dāng)她再次回來之后，我丈夫選的東西已經(jīng)賣光了。我們第三次點菜。10分鐘之后她出現(xiàn)了，看起來很緊張。“我忘記你們點什么了”。她坦白地承認(rèn)。所以我們沒有辦法，只能等待第四次的點餐。我們不能想象要點多少次我們才能吃上飯。
