20、appened? He thought of his mutton, beef and bacon cooked in the hottest, finest oil. His cola was sugary and cold, and his ice cream was made of milk, cream and delicious fruit. Nothing could be better, he thought. Suddenly he saw his friend Li Chang hurrying by. Hello, Lao Li, he called. Your usual
21、? But Li Chang seemed not to hear. What was the matter? Something terrible must have happened if Li Chang was not coming to eat in his restaurant as he always did.

23、re every day. Then she gave a menu to Wang Peng. There were few choices of food and drink on it: just rice, raw vegetables served in vinegar, fruit and water. Wang Peng was amazed at this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his restaurant! He could not believe his eyes. He
24、 threw down the menu and hurried outside. On his way home he thought about his own menu. Did it make people fat? Perhaps he should go to the library and find out. He could not have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies! He had better do some research! At the library Wang Peng was surprised
25、to find that his restaurant served far too much fat and Yong Huis far too little. Even though her customers might get thin after eating Yong Huis food, they were not eating enough energy-giving food to keep them fit. They would become tired very quickly. Wang Peng felt more hopeful as he drove back
26、home. Perhapswith a discount and a new sign he could win his customers back. So he wrote: Want to feel fit and energetic? Come and eat here! Discounts today! Our food gives you energy all day!

27、羊肉串、烤猪肉、炒菜和炒饭。然后到午饭时分,这些菜都会卖完。到了这个时候,他的餐馆本该宾客盈门的,但今天却不是!为什么会这样?发生了什么事?他想起了他用滚烫的精制油烹制的羊肉串、牛排和腊肉。他的可乐又甜又冷,冰激凌用牛奶、奶油和水果制成的。他想:“再没有比这些更好吃的了”。突然间,他看到自己的朋友李昌匆匆地走过。他喊道,“喂,老李!你还是吃老一套的吧?”可是李昌似乎没有听到。怎么会事呢?要是李昌不像往常那样到他店里吃饭,那问题一定严重了。王鹏跟着李昌来到街尾一家新开张的小餐馆。窗子上的标牌写着这样一些字:“肥腻的东西吃厌了吧!想变瘦吗?请到雍慧减肥餐馆来。此地只供应减肥食品,让你恢复苗条!”王

29、餐馆里的饭会变得苗条,但他们摄取不到足够的热量来保持健康,很快就会感到疲乏。开车回家时,王鹏觉得又有了希望。也许写个新的标牌、打点折,能够帮他赢回顾客!于是他写下了他的标牌:“想保持苗条、健康又精力旺盛吗?到这里来用餐吧!今天打折!我们的食物能够给您提供一整天所需的热量!”这两家餐馆之间的竞争开始了!COME AND EAT HERE(2) A week later, Wang Peng s restaurant was nearly full and he felt happier.

Please excuse me, he calmly explained, I wanted to know where all my customers had gone last week. I followed one of them and found them in your
32、 restaurant. I don t want to upset you, but I found your menu so limited that I stopped worrying and started advertising the benefits of my food. Why don t you sit down and try a meal?Yong Hui agreed to stay and soon they were both enjoying dumplings and breast of chicken cooked with garlic.
