Mr. and Mrs. Smith have just opened a small restaurant. They want people to come to the restaurant to eat, so they put a sign in front of it, which said: "Meals on the house for three days."
A foreign student who didn't know much English passed by the restaurant on the second day. It was lunchtime and he felt hungry. "Well, here is a restaurant. I'm going to have something to eat," he said.
He saw the sign when he walked towards the restaurant. "American people are really strange. They even eat on the house!  But how can I get onto the top of the house?" he asked himself
He looked around and found a ladder(梯子)against a tree nearby. He was very pleased. But as he got up to the top, he heard someone shouting at him: "Hey, what are you doing up there?" Mr. Smith was looking at him angrily. Beside him was a policeman.
“Doesn't your sign say 'Meals on the house for three days'? Is it just a joke?" the foreign student answered.
On hearing this, both Mr Smith and the policeman laughed. "Do you know what '60n the house" means? Look it up in your dictionary."
Do you know the meaning of "on the house"?

  A lift is wonderful. It is really only a small room. Rooms usually stay in one place. Lifts travel up and down all day long.

  Sometimes a worker stands in the lift. He or she operates in up and down. In modern lifts there is no worker. The people walk in. They know what floor they want. They push a button and the lift goes to that floor. It is all very fast and easy.

  Lifts are very important to us. Why? Think about a tall building. Maybe it has twenty floors. Maybe it has fifty or more. Who can walk up all the stairs? Maybe people can climb them one time. Can someone climb thirty floors to an office every day? Can small children walk up to their room on the twenty-fourth floor? Can their mother and father carry food up all those stairs? Of course not.
