They studied them. “ You can spend only twenty-five dollars,” Mr. Jackson told his son. The waiter asked Paul,” What would you like, young man?” “How much is the tomato soup?” Paul asked. “ Six dollars,” the waiter said.” It’s very good.” “How much is the duck with orange?” Paul asked next. “Fifteen dollars,” the waiter said. “How much is the chocolate ice cream?” “Six dollars,” the waiter said.
