關于在外面就餐的(On Dining Out)
第一篇：
In my childhood dining out was a wonderful thing to me. Every time we had a casual visitor of some importance or the birthday of someone closely related to us was to be celebrated I was anxious to know whether or not we could dine out. To eat in a plush restaurant where many kinds of food can be sampled used to be a great treat to me. The dreamy music, soft lighting, courteous service, and delicacies served are the things to consummate the pleasure of eating. There you can order whatever you want to eat if only you have enough money on you. Expensive as it may be, dining out indeed saves us a lot of trouble getting things cooked, clearing up the table and washing dirty dishes. But now my interest in dining out has gradually diminished. In the first place it is not economical, and not safe. I can not but allow for the possibility of catching a disease in an eating place. The noise made by many people eating together in a restaurant can also spoil my appetite. Aside from all this, the strongest reason that keeps me from having the itch to dine out is my having got an excellent cook in my own house--my mother.
第二篇：
In a bustling urban district restaurants of every desCRIption can often be found. They satisfy us with well-prepared food and save us the trouble of cooking a meal at the place where we live. Most people, especially the unmarried, like to dine out, and restaurants have thus become a permanent part of the urban scene. However, in the headlong rush to turn a quick profit, restaurants, especially those second-rate ones, are likely to serve unsanitary food to their customers, a tendency much helped by the negligence in cleaning used dishes and also by the failure to keep food well preserved. It goes without saving that some restaurants are virtually the breeding ground of disease-carrying germs and an infectious disease can easily spread from a germ-carrying diseased person to a healthy one. The wide spread of infectious diseases can pose serious problems. One way around this is for the health authorities to establish rigorous regulations governing the running of a restaurant. On the other hand, restaurateurs should also have a sense of hygiene and conform to business ethics. We are all looking forward to the day when diners-out can go everywhere without fear.
第三篇：
We used to dine out once in a while a few years ago. Frees from the kitchen sink, I would wear perfume, put on make-up, get myself fashionably before going out. Then my husband and I would enter a restaurant hand in hand. How crazy I was about dining out in those days! But happy days are usually not long. Last may, Bill, my 35-year-old husband, lost his job. At that time our daughter was only eight months old. Luckily I still had a job. By keeping costs down and making every penny work, we managed to get along. Needless to say, we have not dined out since then. One evening when I was back home from work, my husband said gleefully to me, "Let's have dinner out tonight." "Are you serious?" I could hardly believe my ears. "Of course, today is your birthday. You've forgotten it, haven't you?" five minutes later a suit of pink baby wear made our daughter look like a little angel and I put on my favorite orange blouse and a pretty long skirt. "We're surely to have a good time." I was a happy wife. Maybe it was not a weekend or any holiday. There were just a few customers in the restaurant. A smiling waitress helped us order the food. Music flowed, soft and dreamy. "Nice place to eat," I thought. Then I heard the spasmodic CRIes of my baby daughter. Her diaper is wet, let me change it, I said to my self. Suddenly I found myself standing by her cradle, wearing a wrinkled night gown and bare-footed. All the delicious dishes, soft music, and Elysian atmosphere were gone. I had a dream! My baby stopped crying and fell asleep again, but her father was awaked. "You know what?" I said to him and told him what had happened in my dream. With tenderness and somehow a little sorrow, he hugged me gently, "by the time I get a job, the first thing I'll do is taking you out for a dinner."
