My friend John has got a restaurant in a big city. It is near a supermarket. He gets ten robots for the restaurant. Each robot costs (价钱为) 20, 000 yuan. The restaurant is not big, but very popular. Now more and more people come here for dinner.
The robots have different jobs in the restaurant. Two robots cook different kinds of food; one washes the dishes; one cleans the floor and the others give food to the guests (客人).
Although robots do most of the jobs in the restaurant, John is still very busy. He must do many things to keep the robots working well. Luckily, John is good at studying robots and he knows robots very well. I think in the future, there will be a lot of robotthemed restaurants (机器人主题餐厅) around the world.
Franz Schubert was a famous musician in the world. But he lived a very hard life and often went hungry.
One day he was very hungry and went to a small restaurant, hoping he might meet some friends there to borrow some money. He looked around the restaurant but found nobody. Then his eyes fell on a paper on one of the tables. On it was a short poem. He read the poem and liked it very much. So he sat down and began to write a piece of music for the poem and took his work to the owner of the restaurant. He only received a piece of beef and potato for it.
Thirty years after his death, this music of the poem by Schubert was worth 40,000 francs. It was played in many big theatres and all the people loved it. It was his famous Berceuse(摇篮曲). Schubert began to be known all over the world.
