Composition Exercises
Describethe adventure in the hotel as the waiter might have told it.
---
One day at a hotel restaurant where I work came a new client named Hob. He asked
something to me, but I didn't understand what he said.
I went to my chief office and told him about this situation. Both of us went to the
table where Hob was sitting. The chief asked him what he was asking. He said
something but my chief also didn't understand what he was saying. Then Hob took out
a pencil and wrote on the napkin "BREAKFAST."
We smiled, and at that moment was clear to us what he was asking.
I went into the kitchen and filled the plateful with bread cheese butter marmalade
and a big jug of tea. I brought all these to the Hob table. After less than 10
minutes when I passed near the table, the plateful was empty. I took the empty
plateful and in a minute I brought to him another playful full of eggs and bacon.
When I passed again I saw that the plateful was empty. He tried to say something,
but I immediately took the empty plateful and prepare for him another plateful with
fish covered with a thick white sauce on it. When I was before him with the
plateful of fish, he murmered something, but I left the plateful on the table and
went away. After a pause he decided to eat the fish, and he managed to finish it.
Meanwhile, I had prepared another plateful filled with sausages.
I brought the new plateful and took empty one from the table. Hob shook his head
and slowly he get up and began to walk toward his room.
At the end, he was defeated by the meal.
