A little old couple(夫妇)walked slowly into McDonald’s one cold winter evening．They took a table near the back wall, and then the little old man walked to order．After a short while he got the food back and they began to open it．
There was one hamburger, one order of French fries and one drink．The little old man carefully cut the hamburger in half and divided(分)the French fries in two piles．Then he placed the half of the food in front of his wife．
He took a sip(啜)of the drink and his wife took a sip．“What a poor old couple!”The other people there thought．
As the man began to eat his hamburger and his French fries, his wife sat there watching him and took turns to drink．A young man came over to the old couple．He offered to buy another meal for them．But they said no politely and said that they got used to sharing everything．
Then a young lady asked the wife a question,“Madam, why aren’t you eating?You said that you share everything．What are you waiting for then?”
“The teeth(牙齿),”she answered．
