Ⅴ.标出与段落内容无关的句子（10 points）
Read the following paragraph and cross out the irrelevant sentences.
When my friend Tom sets to work in the kitchen, disaster often results. I, frankly, am not much of a cook. Once he tried to make toasted cheese sandwiches for us by putting slices of cheese in the toaster along with the bread, he ruined the toaster. On another occasion, he had cut up some fresh beans and put them in a pan to steam. The water in the pan steamed away while Tom was on the telephone, and both the beans and the coating in the pan were ruined. Finally, another time Tom made spaghetti for us, and the noodles stuck so tightly together that we had to cut off slices with a knife and fork. The tomato sauce, on the other hand, turned out well. Because of Tom’s kitchen mishaps（事故）, I never eat at his place without money in my pocket in case we have to go out to eat.
