(At lunch time, Machiko and Roberto were hungry. They found a restaurant near the college. The menu looked very good. They chose a table at the salad bowl, sat down, and read the menu. Then they waited. They waited for a long time. At last the waiter comes.)

Waiter : Yes?
Machiko    : I’d like salad fruit, please.
Waiter       : Cottage cheese, yoghurt, or sherbet?
Machiko    : Er, yoghurt, please.
Waiter        : Anything else?
Machiko    : Yes, I’ll have some bread and a glass of white wine.
Waiter        : (to Roberto) and you?
Roberto      : The chef’s salad – large, with bread and red wine, please.
                    (After the waiter left)
Machiko      : The waiter was unfriendly, wasn’t he?
Roberto       : No, not unfriendly. He was rude.
                     (Michiko and Roberto waited more than ten minutes. Their food finally arrived.)
Roberto       : Large? This is small salad.
Machiko      : And this is sherbet instead of yoghurt.
Roberto       : The bread is hard.
Machiko      : It’s not fresh at all. It’s stale. I can’t eat it.
Roberto       : And I can’t drink this wine chilled. It’s warm.
