HSK 2Chapter 2 of 4278 characters
小饭馆
The little restaurant
女孩儿走过来,问:“你好!你是外国人吧?你怎么了?”安娜说:“我坐错车了,手机也没电了。”女孩儿笑了:“没关系,你跟我来。”
女孩儿叫芳芳,今年十六岁,在上高中。饭馆是她家的,她爸爸老王正在做面。芳芳告诉爸爸:“这位姐姐坐错车了,还没吃饭呢。”老王看了看安娜,说:“坐,坐!我去给你做面。”
安娜很不好意思:“但是我没有钱……”老王笑着说:“今天的面不要钱!”芳芳拿过安娜的手机:“你吃面,它也要‘吃饭’,我来帮它。”
老王的面很快就做好了,非常好吃。这是安娜在中国吃过的最好吃的面。芳芳坐在旁边,问了她很多问题:“外国的高中怎么样?考试多吗?”她说,她从小就希望出国上大学。
她们说了很多,也笑了很多。这时候,安娜的手机开了。里面有朋友打来的十几个电话,已经下午五点半了。今天去天河的火车,已经没有了!
