Many visitors may feel confused(困惑的)when they are reading the menu in a restaurant in America, for the names of the dishes look unfamiliar to most visitors. Here are some points which may be useful.

Fried mushroom and fried onion rings are sometimes served as starters. Potatoes most often come "French-fried" or baked. If you order ‘a baked potato, the waiter will ask you what you want on it. The choice is butter or cream. Very often vegetables do not come automatically with the meal, and you have to pay extra for them. "Scrod"(小鳕鱼), "red snapper" and "mahi hahi" are all names of fish. "Seafood" means lobster, shellfish and fish. American beef is usually good and often wonderful.

You have probably heard that in American restaurants, if you can't finish your meal, you can put the food left in a "dogey bag" and take it home. This is quite true. American people don't like wasting food. If you leave some meat, your waiter may ask you if you'd like to put it into "a little bag", or you can ask him to do this.

Dear Isabel.

First, I have to say that I just love your name. When my teacher was assigning(分配)pen friends. I hoped I would get you, and I did.

I am Lucy. I am the only one in the third grade with red hair. Mum says it's e_______ to spot(认出)me in the third-grade choir.

I have a mother, a father and a little brother. My dad p_______ houses for people. Sometimes he works at his office, and sometimes he works at home. Mum takes care of us. She also paints things, like flower pots and little signs for people's gardens and sells them. My little brother plays with trucks. That's pretty much all he does.

The nearest thing we did this summer was going to the beach. It was my first t________to the ocean. We drove all day from West Virginia to South Carolina(南卡罗莱纳州)and stayed in a hotel not too far from the beach. I loved the sand! We w________all along the seaside and found pretty stones and little sea animals that I had not seen before. I'll not forget the. sound of the waves as they rolled and rolled into the beach.

Do you think it's possible that you and I have touched the same water? My teacher says that waves in the ocean keep m________ all the time. Maybe the water on the beach in South Carolina comes from Canada.

I know that's kind of silly idea, but it helps me to think that we're not very far. I hope you can write back soon. I want to hear all about you and your family.

Your pen friend,

Lucy
