Comprehension OE (10 marks)

Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

It was Tina's birthday. Tina and her friends wanted to have a good lunch. They went to a restaurant named 'The Flintstones'. After they were given the menu by the waiter, they asked for cold water. The waiter came with the glasses, but toppled a glass as he served the group. He did not apologise for what he had done. He merely wiped the spilled water on the table with a cloth.

As he stood waiting for Tina and her friends' orders, his face was without a smile. Tina and her friends were offended by his rudeness. After a short while, the group placed their orders. They asked for fish and chips which was the cheapest on the menu. They could not afford the other delicacies on the menu. The waiter gave them a disgusted look. He then went off with the orders without a word.
