4．（10分）Experts believe that there are more than 8million restaurants in the world today． So it might surprise you to learn that restaurants， as we know them， have only existed for a few centuries． Before 1765， there were no restaurants． That is， there were no places that provided the restaurant experience． There was nowhere in which a waiter brought you food and drink that you picked from a menu． In fact， there were no menus anywhere．

There were eating places travellers could go to centuries before that． The countryside was full of inns that would serve food． And there were taverns where one could get drinks． The rich could also eat special meals prepared by private cooks． But none of them could be called a "restaurant"．

A man called Boulanger changed that． In 1765， he opened a place in Paris that sold soups（汤）． On his sign he used the word "restaurant" to describe what he was selling． At that time， soups were considered something that could help "restore"（恢复）your health﹣ in French the word "restore" is "restaurer"﹣﹣﹣ so he called the soups "restaurants"． Soon， people started buying Boulanger's soups even when they were not ill． And over time， people began to use the word "restaurant" to refer to a place selling soup rather than the soup itself． More "restaurants" opened in France， and people began to buy soups more often．

Later， restaurants in Paris began to serve other food besides soup． In the 1790s， menus started to appear． By the mid﹣1800s， there were many types of restaurants throughout the world． The United States offered coffee shops． Tea houses became popular throughout China． Paris created beautiful restaurants for the rich． The British began to copy the French， and the restaurant idea spread throughout the British Empire．

Today cities are filled with all types of restaurants． Diners have millions of options from which to choose．

D． Restaurants had a list of meal choices

（3）Who did Boulanger expect to come and eat at his restaurant　 　？

A． Rich people

B． Sick people．

C． Travellers．

D． Workers．

（4）When it was first used． what did the word "restaurant" refer to　 　？

A． A person．

B． A place．

C． Illness．

D． Soup．

（5）When did restaurants begin to grow internationally　 　？

5．（10分）Many people know that rubbish is a big problem on planet Earth． What many people don't know is that junk（垃圾）has become a problem in outer space too．

According to BBC News， there are more than 22， 000pieces of space junk floating around the earth． And these are just the things that we can see from the surface of the earth by telescopes （望远镜）． There are also millions of smaller pieces of junk that we can't see．

Objects， like bits of old space rockets or satellites， move around the planet at very high speeds fast that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to astronauts． If the tiniest piece of junk crashed into a spaceship， it could damage the vehicle．

To make things worse， when two objects in space crash， they break into many smaller pieces． For example， when a U．S． satellite hit an old Russian rocket in 2009， it broke into more than 2，000pieces， increasing the amount of space junk．

To reduce additional space junk， countries have agreed that all new space tools can only stay in space for 25years at most． Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earth's atmosphere after that time． In the upper parts of the atmosphere， it will burn up．

Many scientists also suggesting different ways to clean up space junk． In England scientists are testing a metal net that can be fired into space junk． The net catches the junk and then pulls it into the earth's atmosphere to burn up． The Germans are building robots that can collect pieces of space junk and bring them back to Earth to be safely destroyed．

The problem is becoming more challenging because we're sending more objects into space to help people use their mobile phones and computers，" says Marco Castronuovo， an Italian space Researcher．

"The time to act is now． The longer we leave the problem， the bigger it will become，" he says．

（1）What does the underlined word "these" in Paragraph 2refer to　 　？

A． Telescopes．

B． Satellites．

C． Pieces of space junk．

D． BBC news reports．

（2）Why is space junk considered a problem　 　？

A． It buns up after it re﹣enters the atmosphere

B． It often stops the view of telescopes on Earth

C． It could force new space tools to travel at slower speeds

D． It may crash into other space tools causing damage or deat

（3）Countries want future space tools to be able to fall back into the earth's atmosphere so that　 　．

A． the tools can be reused later

B． the tools don't become space junk

C． the earth's atmosphere can stay clean

D． the effects of space flight can be studied

（4）How do the Germans plan to deal with space junk　 　？

4．（10分）Experts believe that there are more than 8million restaurants in the world today． So it might surprise you to learn that restaurants， as we know them， have only existed for a few centuries． Before 1765， there were no restaurants． That is， there were no places that provided the restaurant experience． There was nowhere in which a waiter brought you food and drink that you picked from a menu． In fact， there were no menus anywhere．

There were eating places travellers could go to centuries before that． The countryside was full of inns that would serve food． And there were taverns where one could get drinks． The rich could also eat special meals prepared by private cooks． But none of them could be called a "restaurant"．

A man called Boulanger changed that． In 1765， he opened a place in Paris that sold soups（汤）． On his sign he used the word "restaurant" to describe what he was selling． At that time， soups were considered something that could help "restore"（恢复）your health﹣ in French the word "restore" is "restaurer"﹣﹣﹣ so he called the soups "restaurants"． Soon， people started buying Boulanger's soups even when they were not ill． And over time， people began to use the word "restaurant" to refer to a place selling soup rather than the soup itself． More "restaurants" opened in France， and people began to buy soups more often．

Later， restaurants in Paris began to serve other food besides soup． In the 1790s， menus started to appear． By the mid﹣1800s， there were many types of restaurants throughout the world． The United States offered coffee shops． Tea houses became popular throughout China． Paris created beautiful restaurants for the rich． The British began to copy the French， and the restaurant idea spread throughout the British Empire．

Today cities are filled with all types of restaurants． Diners have millions of options from which to choose．

5．（10分）Many people know that rubbish is a big problem on planet Earth． What many people don't know is that junk（垃圾）has become a problem in outer space too．

According to BBC News， there are more than 22， 000pieces of space junk floating around the earth． And these are just the things that we can see from the surface of the earth by telescopes （望远镜）． There are also millions of smaller pieces of junk that we can't see．

Objects， like bits of old space rockets or satellites， move around the planet at very high speeds fast that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to astronauts． If the tiniest piece of junk crashed into a spaceship， it could damage the vehicle．

To make things worse， when two objects in space crash， they break into many smaller pieces． For example， when a U．S． satellite hit an old Russian rocket in 2009， it broke into more than 2，000pieces， increasing the amount of space junk．

To reduce additional space junk， countries have agreed that all new space tools can only stay in space for 25years at most． Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earth's atmosphere after that time． In the upper parts of the atmosphere， it will burn up．

Many scientists also suggesting different ways to clean up space junk． In England scientists are testing a metal net that can be fired into space junk． The net catches the junk and then pulls it into the earth's atmosphere to burn up． The Germans are building robots that can collect pieces of space junk and bring them back to Earth to be safely destroyed．

The problem is becoming more challenging because we're sending more objects into space to help people use their mobile phones and computers，" says Marco Castronuovo， an Italian space Researcher．

"The time to act is now． The longer we leave the problem， the bigger it will become，" he says．
