A.

I wonder who decides what sort of (animal) are kept in (zoo)? You expect to see a lot of (monkey), (rhino), and (lion), but you rarely see (ox), (sheep), (deer) or (goose), probably because these can be seen commonly enough in the wild. Each day large (delivery) of food arrive for the (beast) to eat. Not expensive items like (salmon) or (trout), but ordinary things like (potato) and (tomato) – although the (panda) like (bamboo).

B.

Dear Manager,I’m writing to complain about the terrible evening I had at your restaurant. We had reserved a table but when we arrived, there weren’t enough (chair) for us to sit on. Even though we’d checked beforehand, we were told that there were no (meal) especially for (child). We had to keep asking the waiter to bring us some (glass) and when he gave us our (knife) and (fork), they were dirty. We were informed that not all the (dish) were available that evening and, when we did receive our food, the (potato) were raw and the meat was so tough I nearly broke my (tooth) when I bit into it. However, that was nothing! The real horror was when I saw two (mouse) running across the floor. I think I’m entitled to some compensation as long as it doesn’t include free (meal) at your restaurant! I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely, M. Benne
