China’s very first airplane restaurant recently opened in Wuhan, China. Named “Lilly Airways”, the restaurant is located in the cabin area of an old Boeing 737 passenger airplane.
Businessman Li Liang acquired the aircraft from Indonesian airline Batavia Air, but then he had to go through six mouths of exhausting custom(海关)procedures in order to get the aircraft into China.” Demounting(拆卸), port, shipping, business license, trade declaration…All these procedures were never done by anybody before, which means I had to go through them one by one,” Li said. He added that the Boeing 737 passenger airplane had to be disassembled a total of eight times in its four-month journey from Indonesia to Wuhan, China.
Getting the plane split into parts that then had to be packed in around 70 containers and shipped many times apparently cost the businessman a great 3 million yuan. Add that to the 5 million yuan, he paid for the plane itself and you have one of the most expensive restaurants in the world.
After finally setting up the airplane restaurant on the Optics Valley Pedestrian Street, one of the busiest shopping areas of Wuhan, Li is ready to welcome curious diners and airplane enthusiasts. The restaurant is located in the cabin area of the airplane, and the cockpit(驾驶舱)has been changed into a flying simulator(模拟器)where people will be able to experience what it’s like to fly a passenger airplane.
Li said that a dinner at Lilly Airways is priced between 200 to 300 yuan per person, while the cockpit flying simulation will charge a flight enthusiast 300 to 400 yuan per hour. Li expects that it will be a while before this place turns a profit.
1.What do you know about the restaurant named “Lilly Airways”?
A. It is ordinary B. It is cheap
C. It is unique D. It is interesting
2.It can be known from the passage that_______.
A. it took Li Liang great efforts to take the plane to China

C. it cost Li Liang 500 million yuan to take the airplane to China.
D. most Boeing 737 passenger airplanes in China were imported from Indonesia.

A recent trend(趋势) in Californian restaurants shows new eating habits among those people out to have an interesting dining experience. Appetizers(开胃品)seem to be the name of the games as diners turn away from the more traditional three-course meal in favor of smaller snacks served in various types of restaurants, bars and cafes. In this way, in the course of an evening out, you might go to a restaurant for a tasty dish to eat at one end of town, to a bar with some live music at the other end, then for a coffee, and finally back to the restaurant for a further appetizer.
Reasons for this trend are the fact that so many different types of restaurants have been set up recently, each with their own particular type of food and special atmosphere, together with the increased specialty in the type of snacks being offered. Gone are the cheese sticks of the old days, when appetizers were not really taken seriously. Some favorite snacks of the moment are slices of hot pizza, creamy fish-based dishes and crispy cakes and so on.
Prices for appetizers are not equal to a full meal; however, their new popularity has meant that they are by no means as cheap as they used to be. Certainly, for that special occasion, a meal in a nice restaurant, complete with the piano performance, is hard to beat. However, if we see this trend for “butterfly eating”---moving around several different places in one evening continues, then all the traditional style restaurants may well have to provide their own appetizer bars as well!
1. How are the eating habits of the Californians changing?
A. People are dining out less.
B. Californian restaurants are becoming less popular.
C. Most people eat less than they used to.
D. A full restaurant meal is less popular.
2. All the places that serve appetizers_ .
A. have much the same menu
B. have their own particular characteristics
C. have a bar with live music
D. are located at the end of the town
3. If you go out for an evening of appetizers, you are likely to _________.
A. need a car or take a bus or other transport
B. be bored with some kinds of snacks
C. spend more time for a full meal than you would
D. eat too much meat
4. Appetizers used to be seen as ________.
A. relatively important B. a full meal
C. a cheap meal D. an expensive meal

高二英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
In China, chain restaurants – especially the big multinational ones – are cool. Going to Starbucks, for example, is a status symbol. It not only says, “I’m rich enough to buy this overpriced coffee,” but also, “I’m cosmopolitan (见多识广的) enough to be part of globalization.”
Where I come from in the UK, however, chains are neither fashionable nor gourmet(美食的). Chains are where you go on New Year’s Day when nowhere else is open, or when you are 5 years old and your parents can’t stand hearing, “I’m huuuuuungry!” any longer. In my own case (with regards to McDonald’s), a chain is where you are taken on your first “date”. Even at the age of 13, I knew to give the guy the “let’s just be friends” phone call the next day.
In the UK, independent cafes and restaurants are making a comeback on the fashion scene. Nowadays, a Londoner who says “let’s meet for a coffee at Monmouth” (an independent cafe) is much cooler than one who says “let’s go to Starbucks”. Even if Monmouth’s coffee is a little more expensive, there’s a satisfaction in knowing your pounds aren’t going straight to the big corporations.
Of course, there are chain stores all over the UK; you can’t go five minutes without spotting a Costa Coffee. But numbers do not add up to good taste.
I do, however, have a confession (坦白). After moving to China I had moments when all the rice and Kung Pao Chicken became too much. I, too, have retreated to McDonald’s.
1.Many Chinese people like to go to multinational chain restaurants because ______.
A. the restaurants give customers a taste of foreign culture
B. the restaurants offer different food and drinks from other restaurants
C. they believe that eating there will show their wealth and social status
D. these restaurants are perfect places for a romantic date
2.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. The author has grown tired of Chinese food.
B. Branches of Monmouth’s cafe can be found all over the UK.
C. Most independent stores are closed on New Year’s Day in the UK.
D. It is cool in the UK to take your first date to a chain restaurant.
3.We can infer from the article that ______.
A. the author doesn’t like food from Pizza Hut
B. the author doesn’t like to follow fashion trends
C. many Britons think that numbers mean poor quality
D. many Britons don’t like big corporations
4.What does the underlined word (in the last paragraph) mean?
A. adapted B. contributed
C. subscribed D. Switched
