背景文化知识，介绍在美国如何购物、生活．

　　A friend's grandfather came to America from Eastern Europe(东欧). After being processed(移民入境检查) at Ellis Island, he went into a cafeteria(自助餐厅) in lower Manhattan to get something to eat. He sat down at an empty table and waited for someone to take his order(点菜). Of course nobody did. At last, a woman with a plate full of food sat down opposite him and told him how a cafeteria worked.

　　“Start out at that end,” she said. “Just go along the line and pick out what you want. At the other end they'll tell you how much you have to pay.”

　　“I soon learned that's how everything works in America.” the grandfather told a friend. “Life is like a cafeteria here. You can get anything you want only if you are willing(愿意) to pay the money.
