Yesterday's dinner
A guest in a posh (时髦的，华丽的）hotel breakfast room called over the head waiter one morning and said with a wonderful and cheerful smile, "Good Morning, sir. What a wonderfulmorning! I'd like two boiled eggs, one of them so undercooked that it's runny, and the other so overcooked that it's tough and hard to eat. Also, I want some grilled 1 bacon （烤肉）that has been left out so it gets a bit on the cold side; burnt toast that crumbles 2 away as soon as you touch it with a knife; and I'd like some butter straight from the freezer so that it's impossible to spread; and a pot of weak coffee, that's luke-warm（冷的）." "I'm sorry, sir." said the bewildered 3 waiter. "We cannot do that for you." The guest replied, "Oh?, But that's what I got yesterday!"
