15、 one 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.

So it might surprise you to learn that restaurants, as we know them, have only existed for a few centuries.

24、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 b

25、efore 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 P

26、aris 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 Boulangers

27、 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

28、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.

33、. 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 piece can break important satellites or become dangerous to astronauts. If the tiniestpiece of junk crash

34、ed into a spaceship, it could damage the vehicle.To make things worse, when two objects in space crash, they break into many smaller pieces.
