汤姆和卡罗尔想为他们的朋友萨姆准备一顿丰盛的晚餐。然而，他们的厨房里空空如也。卡罗尔在桌子上写了一份购物清单。她注意到他们有很多土豆，但没有很多西红柿。至于饮料，他们没有茶、咖啡和酒。至于食物，他们没有任何肉类。汤姆要求买啤酒，但卡罗尔不想买任何东西。他们需要去商店，但卡罗尔没有很多钱。汤姆看了看自己空空的钱包，说他也没有多少钱。他们今天都非常贫穷。
Tom and Carol wanted to prepare a big dinner for their friend Sam. However, they had a very empty kitchen. Carol wrote a shopping list on the table. She noticed that they had a lot of potatoes, but they did not have many tomatoes. For drinks, they had no tea, no coffee, and no wine. For food, they did not have any meat. Tom asked for beer, but Carol did not want to buy any. They needed to go to the shops, but Carol did not have much money. Tom looked at his empty wallet and said that he did not have much either. They were both very poor today.
