Twelve years ago, Danny called me from a dark, damp subway station. “A baby!” he shouted. “Get down here, and flag down a police car or something.” By nature, Danny is a remarkably calm person, so when I felt his heart pounding through the phone line, I ran.
When I got to the subway station, Danny was holding a light-brown-skinned baby, about a day old. The baby had been wrapped in an oversize black sweatshirt and left on the ground in a corner behind the gate.
Three months later, Danny appeared in family court to give an account of finding the baby. Suddenly, the judge asked, “Would you be interested in adopting this baby?” The question stunned everyone in the courtroom, except Danny, who answered, simply, “Yes.”
“But I know it’s not that easy,” he said.
“Well, it can be,” assured the judge before barking out orders to allow me to be a parent-to-be.
My first reaction, when I heard, went something like: “Are you crazy? How could you say yes without consulting me?”
In three years as a couple, we had never discussed adopting a child. I was an ambitious playwright working as a part-time word processor. Danny was a respected yet wildly underpaid social worker. We had a roommate, who slept in our living room, to help pay the rent.
We knew how many challenges couples usually faced when they wanted to adopt. And while Danny had patience and selflessness, I didn’t know how to change a diaper(尿布), let alone nurse a child. I didn’t trust the system and was sure there would be obstacles. Also, I couldn’t handle parenthood. So I promised myself I wouldn’t get attached.
The caretaker held him and then placed him in my arms. But when the baby stared up at me, with all the innocence and hope he represented, I, like Danny, was completely hooked.

It was very cold on last Monday morning. I was walking on my way to school when I notice two street cleaners cleaning the street in the cold wind. Saw them working so hard on such a cold morning, I was deeply touching and made up my mind to do something for them.
After arriving at school, our classmates gathered together to discuss when we could do help the street cleaners. Some classmate suggested helping with the cleaning. Some suggested bringing any warm clothes to them while others advised getting some hot food to keep us warm. Finally we both agreed on helping with the cleaning and bringing some hot food to them.

   So let’s say that you’re sitting at a restaurant and when your food arrives, you take one bite and decide that something is preventing you from taking a second bite. No matter what the reason is, this dish is going back to the kitchen, and now it’s up to you to find a way to send it back politely.

First of all, the single most important thing to do when you’re sending something back is to do it immediately. If you eat half the dish before sending it back, the server and kitchen will believe that you really don’t need to send it back.

If a dish is too salty that it cannot be eaten, you should first let the server know what the situation is, and they’ll take it back to the kitchen and bring you a new one. Remember that it is not the server’s fault, so don’t take it out on them. Also, don’t be afraid that they’ll get angry at you, or someone will spit (吐) in your food. It’s their job to make sure that you’re satisfied, and if the kitchen clearly makes a mistake the server will be frustrated with the kitchen, not with the diner who has been served an inedible meal. A new dish will be cooked, and nobody’s going to spit in it.

There is, however, one example when you are sending back a dish which will really annoy both the server and the kitchen. If you order a pasta dish that contains pancetta but then send it back to the kitchen because you’re a vegetarian (素食者) and don’t know what pancetta is, and then congratulations because you’re one of the most unbearable types of customers a restaurant can have. A perfectly good plate of food is just thrown out because you don’t ask what pancetta is before ordering.

So the bottom line: Use common sense if you think that you need to send your dish back. If the kitchen do something wrong, then they’re on the hook for a new plate of food. If you do something wrong, then hopefully you’ve learned a lesson.

【小题1】When the diners find something wrong with the dishes they ordered, they should __________ .

A．send them back immediately	B．eat half the dishes before sending them back
C．go back to the kitchen themselves	D．wait until the cook apologizes to them

【小题2】The underlined word “inedible” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by “ __________”.

A．unbearable	B．unpleasant
C．tasteless	D．uneatable

【小题3】What will happen when you are sending back a dish owing to your own mistake?

A．You’ll be fined by the restaurant.

B．Your request will be refused immediately.

C．You’ll be forced to leave the restaurant.

D．Your food will be thrown out of the restaurant.

【小题4】The passage is intended to __________.

A．guide diners how to enjoy a good meal in a restaurant

B．introduce the best way to send back food in a restaurant

C．introduce the bottom line people should have in a restaurant

D．inform the diners of the most important things to do in a restaurant
