W:Hi, sir, and what would you like today?
M:What is today's special?
W:Ah, today it's fried chicken prepared with potatoes and hot peppers.
M:Oh, I don't really like hot food.
W:Well, we also have fresh sea food. River fish cooked in lemon or sea crabs fried in a cream sauce.
M:They sound delicious, but I am not really in the mood for fish today. What meat dishes would you recommend?
W:The pork covered in peanut sauce is very good. Or we have beef with mushrooms.
M:Oh, I love mushrooms. I'll have that.
W:Fine. And to drink? We have wine, cola or fruit juice.
M:Well, noon is too early for me to drink wine. I don't think it would be good to return to my office drunk. I'd better have the fruit juice.
W:Yes, sir, I'll bring the drink to your table immediately and your meal should be ready in about fifteen minutes.
M:Thanks.

M:You have probably seen sports cars racing on TV or at the movies. But have you ever seen a drag race?Drag racing started in the United States in 1953. The first drag tracks were built by those who were worried about teenagers who were racing their cars on public streets. A track is a straight course about 1,200 feet long. The track has to be straight because the cars go so fast that they can't possibly take a corner. Each race lasts only about seven seconds!The cars used in drag racing don't have much in common with other racing cars. In the front is something that looks like a bicycle wheel. Huge, fat tyres are at the back. A powerful engine is usually in front of the driver. During a race there is sometimes so much smoke from the engines that it's hard to see the racers. The fans say the best races are those where the cars go so fast that they can't see them at all!There are professional drag races now. A good drag racer can earn as much as $650,000 a year.
