Question

A little old man and his wife 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 the cash register (收银处) to order. After a while he got the food back and they began to open it.

   There was one hamburger, some French fries and one drink. The little old man carefully cut the hamburger in half and divided the French fries in two piles (堆). Then he neatly put the half of the food in front of his wife. He took a sip of the drink and his wife took a sip. "How poor the old people are!" The people around them thought.
