1. READING COMPREHENSION. Read the text below and answer the questions. (20 points)
We were in Venice, what a beautiful city! It was our last night, we had made a reservation at a very expensive restaurant on the Grand Canal,
very exclusive place, called The Moon Over Venice, we had found out about on a website back home.
Well, there was just my wife and myself, at this table with a superb position right by the window overlooking the canal and the city - it was just
breathtaking. We ate delicious seafood and pasta, a bottle of Italian white wine which was $70. We were enjoying our last night, spending the
last of our vacation money to be honest! And then the bill came, and it was a big bill -- well I couldn't find my wallet and my wife never has
money on her. Well it was so embarrassing to say the least! I'd left my money in the hotel and after a phone call or two, it was all resolved. I
went back the next day to pay the bill. I left a very hefty (“considerable”) tip too because they had been very nice about everything.
