Do you have a favorite restaurant that you go to with your family? I do! It’s called Ben’s Place, a new restaurant in my town. Not many people know about it yet, so it’s never really busy. That’s why we enjoy eating there. The food there is a little expensive but it’s good. I’m hoping to go there for my next birthday!

Ben’s Place is easy to find, but it’s not at the center of the town. It’s on a road going out of town. When you go into the restaurant, a waiter（服务生）always comes to say hello. And another one talks to you when you walk to your table. The restaurant looks great inside, with lovely yellow walls. And there’s often someone playing the piano, which is nice.

There are wonderful dishes（菜肴）on the menu. Lots of them are things we eat at home. But when I’m at the restaurant, I never know which to have ——they all sound good! Dad tries to give me advice, but I prefer to choose for myself.

Everything’s delicious,especially the soups and the chicken. My dad’s a good cook, so I’m hoping one day soon he’ll teach me to cook what we have at the restaurant. But my dishes will never be as good as the ones at Ben’s Place!

8. Why does the writer like eating at Ben’s Place?

C．Because the food is cheap.	D．Because it’s not really busy.

9. What does the writer think of the waiters in the restaurant?
