Great Mains, Pity about the Chips

Came for lunch with my sister. We loved our Thai-style mains which were amazing
with lots of flavor, very impressive for a vegetarian restaurant. But the service was below
average and the chips were too terrible to finish.
When we arrived at 1.40, we had to wait 20 minutes while they got our table ready.
OK, we didn't have a reservation, but the restaurant was only half full. There was no reason
to make us wait at all.
We ordered the chips as a side dish and they looked delicious. But, when we tasted
them, they were overcooked and swimming in oil so we left most of them. We expected a lot
more for $10!
When the waiter asked if everything was ok, we said we really didn't like the chips and
he said “That's funny, I love them” and that was it. He didn't offer us anything else or take
them off our bill. Also, when we didn't leave a tip, he looked annoyed.

The following test is for question 13 to 15
I was a boy of 7th graders at that time. I kept to myself and never really mixed with
anyone. I always ate my lunch alone on a bench seat. I never smiled all the time.
I would get called all kinds of names that really hurt me. However, I never complained or
showed how much it hurt me.
Nobody chose me for team sports during PE. When I was the last one left, everyone
called me a loser and laughed at me. I ran and sat down hiding my face in my hands.
I never told anybody what had happened to me. I knew that if I told my stepdad, it would
be 100 times worse. As far as I knew, nobody would help me even if I asked. I was too afraid
of what he would do to me. I woke up every day, hoping things would change. I didn’t hold
grudges and never have. It helped me get through some depressing periods while I was at
school. I just wanted a normal life and to be happy.
I can’t say that I have found my dream, but at least I am in no danger now. I deal with the
consequences of my childhood. It taught me to be a tough person.

The following test is for question 16 to 18

Red Basil Sherbet

Sherbet is a refreshing and healthy syrup from Turkey. It is

usually made from fruit, flower extracts, and herbs. It can be
served with ice to add coolness. For some syrups, milk is also
used instead of water. Lime juice is also added to most sherbet
recipes. For this reason, lime water helps prevent the sugar
from crystallizing in the syrup and enriches the flavor.

Here is the simple recipe.

Ingredients:
1 bunch red basil leaves (100 gr)
½ tsp citric acid
half lemon, sliced
½ cup sugar (add or reduce according to your taste)
1liter boiling water

Steps:
1. Roughly chop red basil leaves and place into a big clean bowl.
2. Add citric acid, sliced lemons, and sugar.
3. Pour 1 liter of hot boiling water in the bowl. Stir well and let it rest for about 40
minutes or until it reaches room temperature.
4. Separate the sherbet by running it over the sieve, discharge leaves, and lemon slices.
5. Move the sherbet into a clean jar with a lid. Keep it in the refrigerator.
6. Serve it cold. Adding some ice cubes would be nice.
7. Enjoy your refreshing and healthy summer drink.
