Tired of eating at the same boring restaurants? Looking for a change? Here are some
restaurants that offer an original restaurant experience. See for yourself which ones you fancy.
An Exciting Dinner
Looking for something adventurous? The Archipelago in London is just the thing for you.
One of the most popular dishes in this restaurant is crocodile. Yes, you read it correctly,
crocodile. If that is not daring enough for you, there are plenty of other dishes on the menu.
A Restaurant with a View
Want to enjoy the sights while you’re eating? Try the Top of the World restaurant. At about
244 meters above Las Vegas, diners can enjoy a spectacular view of Las Vegas in this revolving
restaurant. However, the real adventure starts at the end of the meal. That’s when the customers
are taken from their seats at ground level to the observation rooms in elevators that travel at a
remarkable speed.
A Theatrical Experience
Longing for dinner with some drama? Dine with mimes at Mime in Manchester. The
service is unique. Your waiter will communicate your order in mime and keep you entertained
with performances in between courses.
An Unusual Setting
Don’t care about presentation? You’ll be fine at the Modern Toilet restaurant in Taiwan.
The theme of this restaurant is the toilet, and you would be surprised how many people queue
up for the experience of eating on toilet seats.

It is said that a great many things about languages are mysterious, and many will
always be so. But some things we do know.
Firstly, we know that all human beings have a language of some kind. There is no race of
men anywhere on earth so backward that it has no language, no set of speech sounds by which
the people communicate with one another. In historical times, there has never been a race of
men without a language.
Secondly, there is no such thing as a primitive language. There are many people whose
cultures are underdeveloped, who are, as we say, uncivilized, but the languages they speak are
not primitive. In all known languages we can see complexities that must have been tens of
thousands of years in developing.
This has not always been well understood; indeed, the direct contrary has often been stated.
Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate. Many people have
guessed that the Indians communicated in a very primitive system of noises. Study has proved
this to be nonsense. There are, or were, hundreds of American Indian languages, and all of them
turn out to be very complicated and very old. They are certainly different from the languages
that most of us are familiar with, but they are no more primitive than English and Greek.
A third thing we know about language is that all languages are perfectly adequate. This
means each one is a perfect means of expressing the culture of the people who speak the
language.
Finally, we know that language changes. It’s natural and normal for language to change;
the only languages which do not change are the dead ones. This is easy to understand if we look
backward in time. Change goes on in all aspects of language. Grammatical features change as
do speech sounds and changes in vocabulary are sometimes very extensive and may occur very
rapidly. Vocabulary is the least stable part of any language.

The World Health Organization has for the first time expressed “cautions optimism”
that the growth in new Ebola cases in West Africa may be slowing down.
Bruce Aylward, who is in charge of the WHO response to Ebola, said in Geneva that he
was particularly encouraged by evidence of a downward trend in Liberia, one of the three
worst-affected countries.
The WHO’s official total number of Ebola cases has reached 13.703—a big jump from
the10,141 cases it reported four days ago. But Dr Aylward said that was mainly the result of the
data being updated with old cases, rather than new cases arising.
“Do we feel confident that the response is now getting an upper hand on the virus? Yes, we
are seeing a slowing rate of new cases, very definitely.” Dr Aylward said.
However, Dr Aylward also urged people not to celebrate prematurely over any apparent
downturn in the epidemic
（传染病
). “I’m terrified that the information will be misinterpreted
and people will think Ebola is under control.” he said.
Any reduction in the battle against the virus might lead to “an oscillatingpattern
（震荡的）
where the disease moves up and down”.
The improvement in Liberia seems to be due to a combination of more treatment facilities,
better contact tracing and safer burial practices, together leading to fewer new infections from
Ebola patients.
In Sierra Leone the number of cases continues to increase in some areas. “We’re still
seeing this thing burning quite hot in parts of Sierra Leone,” Dr Aylward said
B
．
vocabulary
D
．
pronunciation
Tracing the progress of individual patients, the WHO estimates an overall death rate of 70
percent, though people who receive treatment in a well-equipped clinic are slightly less likely
to die. The WHO plans to set up 56 Ebola clinics with 4,700 beds in West Africa. Of these 15
clinics with 1,050 beds are already operational and another 22 clinics are expected to open
during November.
Meanwhile, two former NATOsecretaries-general and dozens of leading European
（北约）
politicians have urged the alliance to send troops, aircraft and ships to west Africa to help
contain the Ebola crisis.
8
．
In the first paragraph, “cautious optimism” probably refers to ________.
A
．
Ebola under control thanks to WHO’s caution
B
．
the decline of new Ebola cases though not defeated
C
．
celebrations on the downturn in Ebola in Liberia
D
．
More treatment and relief supplies to West Africa
9
．
Why did Dr Aylward urge people not to celebrate prematurely?
A
．
Because celebrations may increases infections.
B
．
Because the pattern of the disease is up and down.
C
．
Because people may be misled to cease the battle.
D
．
Because we are getting an upper hand on the virus.
10
．
Which of the following didn’t contribute to the improvement in Liberia?
A
．
better contact tracing
C
．
safer burial practices
B
．
more treatment facilities
D
．
data updated with old cases
11
．
According to the text, “burning quite hot” means ________.
A
．
very severe
C
．

There have been claims that warming on Mars and Pluto is proof that the recent
warming on Earth is caused by an increase in solar activity, and not by greenhouse gases. But
we can say with certainty that, even if Mars, Pluto or any other planet has warmed in recent
years, it is not due to changes in solar activity.
The Sun’s energy output has not increased since direct measurements began in 1978. If
increased solar output really was responsible, we should be seeing warming on all the planets
and their moons, not just Mars and Pluto.
B
．
extremely hot
D
．
well received
Our solar system has eight planets, three dwarf planets and quite a few moons with at least
a thin atmosphere, and thus a climate of sorts. Their climates will be affected by local factors
such as orbital variations, changes in reflectance and even volcanic eruptions, so it would not
be surprising if several planets and moons turn out to be warming at any one time.
One theory is that winds have recently swept some areas of Mars clean of dust, darkening
the surface, warming the Red Planet and leading to further increases in windiness--a positive
feedback effect.
Observations of the thickness of Pluto’s atmosphere in 2002 suggested the dwarf planet
was warming even as its orbit took it further from the Sun. The finding confused astronomers at
the time, and the cause had yet to be determined.
It has since been suggested that this is due to a greenhouse effect: As it gets closer to the
Sun, Pluto may warm enough for some of the methane ice on its surface to turn into a gas. This
would cause further warming, which would continue for a while even after Pluto’s orbit starts
to take it away from the Sun.
12
．
What cause(s)the warming of some planets?
A
．
The solar system.
C
．
Volcanic mountains.
B
．
Their local factors.
D
．
The thin atmosphere.
13
．
What is the outcome of the recent winds on Mars?
A
．
They’ve cooled the planet.
C
．
They’ve caused more winds.
B
．
They’ve left a clear sky.
D
．
They’ve helped clean the planet.
14
．
What do we know about the thickness of Pluto’s atmosphere?
A
．
It remains mysterious.
C
．
It has become thinner.
B
．
It troubled astronauts.
D
．
It contributes to the warming.
15
．
Which of the following might lead to the warming on Earth according to the writer?
A
．
Solar activity.
C
．
Greenhouse gases.

三、完形填空
It was a hot summer day. The sun was shining brightly and all I could think of was
21 down with a scoop of my favorite ice cream. I decided to make a quick 22 to the
newly opened ice cream parlor(
冰淇淋店
) close by for a mid-day 23 .
I ordered my ice cream in a fancy cone and asked the server to 24 two tubs of
chocolate ice cream for folks at home.
25 I knew it, I was halfway 26 my icy treat and was enjoying the view of the
two colorfully prepared ice cream flavors, sitting pretty one next to the 27 .
Now that my to-go order was 28 , I headed to the payment counter to settle the bill.
29 , the cashier (
收银员
) had forgotten to bill my ice cream, 30 only for the two tubs.
The next few 31 passed by as I debated between doing what was 32 —
clearing the bill and moving out, and doing what was right — 33 the error. I knew if I
didn’t bring the error in the bill to his 34 , my ice cream would be charged against his
35 .
That moment, my decision was made and I went and told him 36 he had missed.
He looked at me in 37 and thanked me profusely for telling the error. Had it not
been for my 38 telling the error, he would have been fined. The smile of relief on his
face made me smile, too.
I came out of the ice cream parlor feeling really 39 about myself. I knew that day
how wonderful it feels to do what is right 40 what is easy.
