Mr and Mrs
Harris had always spent their summer holidays in a small hotel at the seaside
near their hometown. One year, however, Mr Harris
made a lot of _26_ in his business, _27_ they decided to go to a foreign
country and stay at a really good _28_.
They flew to Rome, and _29_ at a
5-star hotel late in the evening, they thought that they would have to go to
bed hungry, because in that _30_ where they had been used to stay in the past,
no meals were served _31_ seven in the evening. They were _32_ to be told that
the hotel served dinner until ten.
“Then what are the times _33_
meals?” asked Mrs Harris.
“Well, madam. We serve
breakfast from seven to eleven. Lunch from twelve to three, _34_ from four to
five, and dinner from six to ten.”
“But that _35_ leaves any time for
us to see the city!” said Mrs Harris.
