On that day his father took him to the Childrens Activity Centre and said he could choose any course that interested him. There was just one requirement: Lin would have to promise to study it for at least one
14、 year.To that point Lin had had many hobbies, but none kept his interest for more than a week or two. His mum once gave him a bag of stamps to encourage stamp collecting. That hobby lasted a week. Then his father got him some paints hoping that Lins artistic side would shine through. Those paints we
15、re now under his bed, still unopened. This time Lins parents would let him decide.Lins eyes moved down the noticeboard that listed all the courses on offer. He stopped at Photography. He liked the idea of taking beautiful pictures but the notice said that each student needed their own camera. Althou
16、gh Lins family werent poor, they werent rich either, and a camera cost a lot of money. He continued looking.The next course to catch his eye was Language Art. He didnt even know what that meant. His father explained that it taught people how to make public speeches. Lin, a shy boy, could think of no
17、thing worse.Then he saw it. Cooking sounded like something hed like to do. It was inexpensive and convenient, it could be done alone and it was also creative.Based on Lins hobby history, his dad had doubts, but he agreed. Much to his parents surprise, Lin kept his promise.

The Birthday Gift(B)Experts believe that there are more than 8 million restaurants in the world today. So it might surprise you to learn that restaurants, as we know
23、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 eat
24、ing 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
25、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 resta
26、urants. Soon, people started buying Boulangers 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 Pa
27、ris 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 Br

What many people dont know is that junk(垃圾)has become a problem in outer space too.According to BBC News, there are more than 22, 000 pieces of space junk floating around t
32、he 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 cant see.Objects, like bits of old space rockets or satellites, move around the planet at very high speeds fast that even a very small
33、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
34、 rocket in 2009, it broke into more than 2,000 pieces, 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 25 years at most. Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earths atmosphere after that time. I
