Mr. and Mrs. Black opened a small
restaurant. In order to attract customers, they put a notice in front of the
restaurant that said "Meals on the House for Three Days."
A foreign student who didn't know much
English happened to pass by the restaurant on the second day. It was lunchtime
and he felt very hungry. "Well, here is a restaurant. I am going to have
something to eat."
He walked towards the restaurant when he
saw the notice. "American people are really strange. They even eat dinners
on their houses! But how can I get up to the top of the house?" he said to
himself.
He looked around and found a ladder against
a tree nearby. He started climbing up. But as he reached the top, he heard
someone shouting at him.
"Hey, what are you doing up there?"
Mr. Black shouted at him. Next to him was a policeman. "Doesn't your
notice say 'Meals on the House for Three Days'? Is it just a joke?" the
foreign student answered.
On hearing this, both Mr. Black and the
policeman laughed. "Do you know what ON THE HOUSE means? Look it up in the
dictionary," the policeman said.
