English to be able to understand what she wanted, until one day she decided to have
lunch in a charming little restaurant in a village in the south of Italy.
She had seen some nice mushrooms in the market of another village near there
and thought they would taste very good, so when the waiter came to take her order
for lunch, she inquired whether she could have some mushrooms for her meal, but
she had great difficulty in explaining to him, because she did not know the Italian
word for mushrooms.
At last she took out a pencil and drew a picture of a mushroom. The waiter’s face
brightened at once, and he hurried out to the kitchen. A minute later he returned,
carrying a mushroom.
