A well-known manufacturer (制造商) of weighing machines produced a new model.
The machine could do wonderful things.It could weigh people very accurately (准确地),it could tell them their weight in their own language,and it could tell them what they should eat to reduce their weight.
The manufacturer decided to try out this machine before he sold it to shops.
He looked around for a good place to put it and finally decided on an airport.There were always people at an airport from many different countries.
The first person to use the machine was an Italian woman.She stood on the machine,put a coin in,and waited to hear her weight.
The machine took only a second or two to weigh her,consider her nationality,and figure out what kind of food she should eat.
"Good morning,madam," it said in perfect Italian."Your weight is 72 kilos,three more than it should be for a woman of your height,age,and nationality.I suggest you eat more fruits and vegetables."
The second person to use the machine was a Chinese girl.
"Good morning,miss," the machine said in perfect Chinese."Your weight is 38 kilos,exactly the correct weight for your height,age,and nationality.Continue to eat what you are eating."
The third person to use the machine was a huge Australian woman.She walked up to the machine and looked at it for a long time.At last she found the courage to stand on the machine and put a coin in.
The machine spoke immediately.
"Good morning.Will one of you ladies please get off?"
