【正文】 re on Instagram and eat for free! The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant(巨人 )Birds Eye, who came up with the idea to cash in on people’s addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online. They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals. So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range. The popup diner was open in Soho, London for three days in May, and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve twocourse meals that customers don’t have to pay for, if they photo and lnstagram it. The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye’s “Food for Life” campaign, a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food. “Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments— from the everyday to the special,” said marketing director Margaret Jobling. The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far and the paybypicture concept has proven to be an effective way. Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses. Last year in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there, not by what they eat. 24.

Uncle Joe came into the house and looked upset. “Ken , did you let the air out of two tires on my old truck?” he asked me. “No, I would never do that,” I replied. “I guess I must have run over something pointed,” Uncle Joe said. I helped him fill some air into the tires so we could drive to the garage. The garage man couldn’t find anything in the tires. “Maybe Ken was playing a trick on you,” he told Uncle Joe, laughing at me. “I wouldn’t do that!” I said. “Flat tires aren’t funny.” He added, “Maybe some neighborhood kids?” “There are only three who live nearby, and they’re on vacation,” Uncle Joe said. “It’s a mystery.” The next morning was even hotter. Uncle Joe stormed into the house, shouting, “Now three flat tires! Who could be playing such a trick?” I went outside and saw the flat tires. When Uncle Joe went back inside, I decided to solve this mystery myself. I hid behind a bush, keeping an eye on the truck. “Maybe some kid who is visiting one of our neighbors is doing it. Or maybe a grownup is angry at Uncle Joe,” I thought. But I couldn’t think of anyone who would be angry at him. The sun got hotter and hotter. I got sleepier and sleepier. Suddenly I heard a long “s” sound. My eyes opened, and I looked at the strangest sight I’d ever seen. A crow(烏鴉 ) was standing beside Uncle Joe’s back tire. With its sharp pointed mouth, it pressed against the tire valve(閥門 ). Sssst! I could almost hear the crow laugh with pleasure as it spread its wings in the cool wind from the tire. “Uncle Joe,” I shouted, running toward the house. “You’re never going to believe this...” 28.
