restaurants,as we know them,have only existed for a fewcenturies。Before 1765，there were no restaurants。That is，there were no places that providedthe restaurantexperience。There was nowhere in which a waiter brought you food and drink thatyou picked froma menu。In fact，there were no menus anywhere.4There were eating places travellers could go to centuries before that。The countryside wasfullof inns that would serve food.And there were taverns where one could get drinks.The richcouldalso eat special meals prepared by private cooks。But none of them could be calleda“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 wordrestaurant”to describe what he wasselling。At that time,soupswereconsidered something that could helprestore（恢 复）your health-in French thewordrestoreis“restaurer-so he called the soupsrestaurants”.Soon,people started buyingBoulangers soups even when they were not ill.And over time,people began to use theword”restaurant”torefertoaplacesellingsoupratherthanthesoupitself。Morerestaurantsopened in France，andpeople began to buy soups more often.Later，restaurants in Paris began to serve other food besides soup.In the 1790s，menusstartedto appear.By the mid1800s，there were many types of restaurants throughout the world。TheUnited States offered coffee shops.Tea houses became popular throughout

C）Many people know that rubbish is a big problem on planet Earth。What many peopledontknow 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 floatingaroundtheearth。And these are just the things that we can see from the surface of the earth bytelescopes(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 highspeedsfast that even a very small piece can break important satellites or become dangeroustoastronauts。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 smallerpieces。For example,when a U.S。satellite hit an old Russian rocket in 2009，it broke into morethan 2,000pieces,increasing the amount of space junk。To reduce additional space junk，countries have agreed that all new space tools can onlystayin space for 25 years at most.Each tool must be built to fall safely into the earths atmosphereafterthat time。In the upper parts of the atmosphere，it will burn up.Many scientistsalso suggesting different ways to clean up space junk。In Englandscientistsare testing a metal net that can be fired into space junk。The net catches the junk and thenpulls itinto the earths atmosphere to burn up。The Germans are building robots that can collectpieces ofspace junk and bring them back to Earth to be safely destroyed。The problem is becoming more challenging because were sending more objects into spacetohelp people use their mobile phones and computers,says Marco Castronuovo，an Italian spaceResearcher。“The time to act is now。The longer we leave the problem,the bigger it will become，hesays.36.What does the
