One day, Bill and Tom went to a restaurant for dinner. As soon as the waiter took out two steaks, Bill quickly picked out the bigger steak for himself.
Tom wasn't happy about that: When are you going to learn to be polite?
Bill: If you had the chance to pick first, which one would you pick?
Tom: The smaller piece, of course.
Bill: What are you whining1 about then? The smaller piece is what you want, right?

一天,比尔和汤姆去饭店吃饭。当员工端上两份牛排时,比尔飞速地为自己拿了比较大的那块。
汤姆对此非常不高兴:你什么时间能掌握礼貌?
比尔说:假如叫你先拿,你会拿什么?
汤姆说:当然是小的那个。
比尔:那你还抱怨什么?小的那个不就是你想要的,不是吗?
