健忘的餐厅服务员

At a restaurant,my husband and I had a waitress who was just now on the job.Four munutes after taking out order,she returned to say "sorry,will you tell me again?"And then she came back with nothing.We made another selection,but my husband's choice was sold out after she came back again.We ordered a third time.Ten minutes later she appeared ,looking nervous."I fotgot to put your order in." She frankly admitted.So we had no way just to wait for a forth time.We couldn't imagine how many times we could enjoy our meal.

在一家餐馆里，为我和我丈夫服务的是一名新来的女服务员。在她把菜单拿走四分钟之后，她返回来说：“对不起，你可以再说一次吗?”然后她什么东西都没拿就回去了。我们挑选了另一道菜，但是，当她再次回来之后，我丈夫选的东西已经卖光了。我们第三次点菜。10分钟之后她出现了，看起来很紧张。“我忘记你们点什么了”。她坦白地承认。所以我们没有办法，只能等待第四次的点餐。我们不能想象要点多少次我们才能吃上饭。
