英文短篇故事（纽约）64 A Bucket of Chicken (1)

 　　KF was selling a Family Bucket for only $12. The ads were on TV. Josh went to a KF on Broadway. A big sign in the window said Family Bucket $12—eight pieces of chicken, cole slaw, and mashed¹ potatoes. Josh went inside. He ordered the Family Bucket. The worker said, "We’re not KF." She said to go to the rear². Josh didn't understand. "We sell Nathan's hot dogs," she said. "KF is back there." He walked to the back of the big room. There was only one KF register open. But, there was only one person in front of him. This shouldn't take long, Josh thought. Five minutes later, that person's order got filled. Josh told the worker that he wanted the Family Bucket. She said that would be $26. He said no, it was only $12. "It's all over TV," he said. "It's all over your front window!"
