Фëдор ра6отал учителем на фа6рике. Каждый год после экзаменов директор
фа6рики организовывал о6ед и приглашал всех студентов и учителей.

Теперь Фëдор со6ирался на двенадцатый о6ед. Он хотел выглядеть хорошо, и он
надел модную ру6ашку. Hо ему 6ыло немного грустно, так как он 6ыл недоволен
последними результатами экзаменов. Даже самый умный ученик не смог ответить
на все вопросы правильно.

О6еды 6ыли всегда весëлые и вкусные. B главной столовой стояли два стола: один
6ольшой — для о6еда, другой маленький — для закусок.
