第五課 Dìsì kè 中餐館 （Lesson 5 Chinese Restaurant）
課文 kè wén （text）
家興和家奇越學中文越喜歡吃中國菜。他們聽説學校附近的中國飯館“老四川”很有名，就決定去吃吃看。一到老四川，家興就覺得餓了。他們跟服務員説，想吃又麻又辣的四川菜。
服務員和他們説中文，可是他們覺得服務員説得太快了，請她説得慢一點兒。最後他們點了麻婆豆腐、酸菜魚，還要了一個酸辣湯。吃完後，服務員問他們味道怎麼樣。他們只點頭，不説話。原來， 他們習慣吃辣的，可是不習慣吃又麻又辣的”。

English
Jiaxing and Jiaqí grew to love eating Chinese food more and more as they studied Chinese. They heard that the Chinese restaurant “Old Sichuan” near their school was very famous, so they decided to give it a try. As soon as they arrived at Old Sichuan, Jiaxing already felt hungry. They told the waiter that they wanted to eat Sichuan dishes that were both numbing and spicy.
The waiter spoke to them in Chinese, but they felt the waiter spoke too quickly, so they asked her to speak a bit more slowly. In the end, they ordered Mapo Tofu, Pickled Fish, and also a bowl of Hot and Sour Soup. After finishing the meal, the waiter asked them how the food tasted. They just nodded without saying a word. It turned out they were used to eating spicy food, but not to eating dishes that were both “numbing and spicy.”
