平常午饭都是怎么解决的呢?是追求美味还是简洁、昂贵还是朴素?当然通常答案都是物美价廉为佳，一起听听Martin的想法吧。
Tom: What did you have for lunch?
Martin: I had a chicken bento.
Tom: You brought it from home?
Martin: No, I bought it here on campus.
Tom: In the cafe?
Martin: Yes.
Tom: How was it?
Martin: It was ok. It's better than most of the other food here and it wasn't too expensive.
Tom: Do you eat here a lot.
Martin: I try not to.
Tom: Why not?
Martin: It's a little more expensive and the quality isn't quite as good as I'd hope for the value.
Tom: More expensive than where?
Martin: More expensive than a small restaurant or a specialized chicken place down in town.
Tom: Really? I agree with you about the quality but I thought it was quite cheap up here.
Martin: I just find I can find a little better deal sometimes in town and a lot better quality for about the same price.
Tom: So about lunch, do you have lunch here?
Martin: Often? No.
Tom: What do you do for lunch?
Martin: I usually go home and eat. I'm not on campus that often.
Tom: Ok, yeah. 'Cause I kind of get stuck up here from morning until evening so I'm eating there everyday.
Martin: Everyday. Sorry to hear that.
Tom: What do you do for dinner, do you cook?
Martin: Yes I do, most often, usually just easy beef stir-fries or now and then go out...
Tom: Like chinese-style.
Martin: Yeah. Easier to cook than Japanese-style.
Tom: Do you shop everyday or do you go shopping once a week.
Martin: I usually shop every other day.
Tom: Ok. So you like fresh food.
Martin: Yes.
Tom: Do you live on your own.
Martin: Yes. How about you?
Tom: Oh yeah, I live on my own.
Martin: That's always better sometimes.
Tom: With my cooking, it's not better that I live on my own.
