Ralph, Sue, and I went to eat lunch at The Burger Joint. At The Burger Joint, all three of us looked
at the menu. The Burger Joint offered over thirty different kinds of hamburgers with every kind of
topping available. After examining the menu, Ralph decided to take the plunge. Ralph ordered the
giant hamburger deluxe with everything on it. The hamburger was three pounds of cooked meat with
tomatoes, lettuce, bacon, cheese, special sauce, onions, and pickles. Whenever this special hamburger
was ordered, a large cow bell was rung. When the hamburger was brought to Ralph, he took a big
bite of the juicy burger. Ralph turned to Sue and me and said, “Wow! This is the best burger ever!”
Sue and I decided to order a giant hamburger deluxe with everything on it, too. When it was brought
to Sue and me, we told the waiters, “Thanks! We can’t wait to eat it all!” Sue tried her best, but she
still had a lot of her burger left. So, the waiter brought Sue a doggie bag to take the left-over burger
home. Ralph, Sue, and I left the waiters a big tip. We can’t wait to go back to The Burger Joint again.
What makes a hamburger delicious? On a separate sheet of paper, describe the best burger you have
ever had. Use object pronouns in the paragraph, and underline them.
