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 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 travelers 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.

C. Restaurants were mainly in cities.
D. Restaurants had a list of meal choices.

A. Rich people. B. Sick people. C. Travelers. D. Workers.
9. When it was first used, what did the word “restaurant” refer to?
A. A person. B. A place. C. Illness. D. Soup.
10. When did restaurants begin to grow internationally?
A. In the 1600s. B. In the 1700s. C. In the 1800s. D. In the 1900s.

The China Foundation for Poverty Alleviation (中国扶贫基金会) has started a program to hire and train 100 local women as substitute mothers (替代妈妈) to take care of left-behind children . The three-year program will select 100 villages across Sichuan Province and hire (雇佣) one woman for each village.
“It is a model to solve the problem of left-behind children,” said Liu Wenkui, secretary of the foundation. The “substitute mothers” will do parents’ job, finding out what the children need and helping them with problems. Each substitute mother will take care of about 300 to 500 children. There will be a “children’s home” in each village to be the mother’s office and children’s playing space. Their job is to provide quick service and discover the children’s problems.
The program hopes to hire women aged 19 to 55 years old from the villages. “We want to hire full-time ‘mothers’ to make sure they won’t think about other work,” Liu said. “We want local women because they understand local languages and cultures.” The program in Sichuan is an experiment, and Liu said, “If it is a successful model, we will start it in the whole country.”
“If parents are forced to leave home to earn a living and unable to take their children with them, we are looking for a transitional (过渡的) way to solve the problem,” he added.
11. What is the Chinese meaning of the underlined word “left-behind” in paragraph 1?
A. 落后. B. 遗弃 C. 辍学 D. 留守
12. How long will the program last?
A. Three months. B. A year. C. Three years. D. Ten years.
13. Who is possible to be a substitute mother?
A. A girl at the age of 18.
B. A woman with a part-time job.
C. A man from the local village.
D. A woman who knows local language.
14. Which is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. A substitute mother plays a role of parents.
B. Each substitute mother will take care of about 300 to 500 children.
C. Each village will have a “children’s home”.
D. The children’s parents will pay for the substitute mother.
15. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Left-behind Children’s Problems
B. Substitute Mothers in Villages
C. Left-behind Women’s Problems
D. Substitute Children in Villages

Many young people have trouble communicating with their Parents. However, there are some useful tips to help solve this problem.
First, make a list of the things you and your parents disagree about most. With each of these things, try to find an acceptable answer to you and your parents. It is not good for you to require everything to go your way. You have to be ready to change a little if you want them to change.
Second, talk to your parents when it is convenient for them. Remember that your parents may have to work long hours and this can make them tired, so be patient with them.
Third, listen to what your parents have to say. How can you expect them to listen to you if you are not ready to listen to them? So try to be an active listener. In addition, your parents were once young like you, so they can understand your situation better than you expect.
Finally, if you do not get a satisfactory result, try not to get too angry. You should talk with your parents further in order that you can find out their reasons. Part of growing up is learning to live with these kinds of disagreements, and learning to understand another person’s way of looking at things. With a little hard work, you can learn to communicate better with your parents.
