A little old man and his wife walked slowly into McDonald's one cold winter evening. They took a table
near the back wall, and then the little old man walked to the cash register (收银处) to order. After a while
he got the food back and they began to open it.
There was one hamburger, some French fries and one drink. The little old man carefully cut the hamburger
in half and divided the French fries in two piles (堆). Then he neatly put the half of the food in front of his
wife. He took a sip of the drink and his wife took a sip. "How poor the old people are!" The people around
them thought. As the man began to eat his hamburger and his French fries, his wife sat there watching him
and took turns to drink. A young man came over and offered to buy another meal for them. But they refused
(拒绝) politely and said that they got used to sharing everything.
Then a young lady asked a question of the little old lady. "Madam, why aren't you eating? You said that you
share everything. Then what are you waiting for?" She answered, "The teeth."
