French, they took a French word book with them and hoped it would help them in difficult situations.
The flight was 2 , and the hotel was very comfortable. Each day after breakfast, Steve and Mark
3 a picnic lunch and dinner and went off to visit interesting places. After a while, the boys became tired
of 4 picnic meals and decided to eat a big fish dinner in a good restaurant. Unfortunately, they 5 their
word book in the hotel.
They 6 the menu carefully. After ten minutes, Steve said to Mark:

"Neither do I," said Mark. "I see poison on this menu. Are they 7 here?"
"Maybe. They even spelled poison 8 . They spelled it p- o-s-s-o-n instead of p-o-i-s-o-n. But it 9
mean the same thing. Maybe we should go to another restaurant. I don"t 10 to eat something that will kill
me."
But Mark was 11 , so he said:"There is no other restaurant near here, and I"m tired of walking around
the city. Let"s order something else instead. It"s 12 here, so the food must be good. "The boys looked at
the menu again. They finally decided to order steak, 13 they really wanted fish. The boys just pointed to
the word steak, and the waiter 14 .
As they were eating they 15 some tourists speaking English.
"This 16 is delicious."
"We"re lucky we picked a restaurant that"s famous for its fish."
Steve and Mark wondered about what they 17 .
"Famous for its fish? There was no fish on 18 !" said Mark.
Finally, Steve decided to find out what all this was about.
"Excuse me, how did you order fish when it wasn"t on the menu?"
"Sure it"s on the menu. It"s right here. Poisson."
The boy shouted:
"Poisson. That"s 19 ! We were wondering why a restaurant like this could have poison on the menu."
