三、阅读理解（共25小题，计25分） A
This week I tried two new restaurants — Michelle’s and Anton’s. They are both French restaurants.
Michelle’s is a small place with about twenty tables. The waiters and waitresses are very friendly, and the service is excellent. I ordered chicken with orange sauce (酱汁) along with rice and a salad. Then I had a chocolate cake. The chicken was delicious, but the cake was too dry. The meal cost me about thirty dollars.
Anton’s is a much bigger restaurant, and it was very crowded on that night. I waited twenty minutes for a table. Anton’s is noisier than Michelle’s, and the waiter was very slow with my meal. I ordered soup and a steak (牛排) with fried potatoes and vegetables. The soup wasn’t very hot. The steak was OK, but the vegetables weren’t very good. For dessert, I had ice cream. The meal was really expensive — about forty-five dollars.
Now you know why I would go to Michelle’s again, but not to Anton’s. 根据短文内容，判断下列句子正误。正确的用“A”表示，不正确的用“B”表示。 31. The writer went to two restaurants in France last week. 32. Michelle’s is smaller than Anton’s.
33. Michelle’s has better service than Anton’s. 34. The writer likes Anton’s more than Michelle’s. B
