¡¡¡¡One year Miss Wyatt decided to have a holiday in Italy. She did not speak much Italian, but wherever she went, she was fortunate enough to find people who knew enough English to be able to understand what she wanted, until one day she decided to have lunch in a charming (ÃÔÈ˵Ä) little restaurant in a village in the south of Italy.
¡¡¡¡She had seen some nice mushrooms(Ä¢¹½) in the market of another village near there and thought they would taste very good, so when the waiter came to take her order for lunch, she inquired(ѯÎÊ)whether she could have some mushrooms for her meal, but she had great difficulty in explaining to him, because she did not know the Italian word for mushrooms.
¡¡¡¡At last she took out a pencil and drew a picture of a mushroom. The waiter's face brightened at once, and he hastened out to the kitchen. A minute later he returned, carrying an umbrella.
1£®Why did the poorness of Miss Wyatt's knowledge of Italian not interfere with her enjoyment of her holiday most of the time?
2£®Where did she have trouble in making herself understood?
3£®Why did she think she would like some mushrooms?
4£®How did she try to show the waiter what she wanted?
5£®Why did he bring her an umbrella?
