  When you grow up, what will things be like?

  No one knows.

  But it is fun to guess.

  Let's make this a story about you in the year 2014.How old will you be then?Ask your teacher or work it out.

  Our story will be about one only.Let's make it the birthday of your little boy.His name is Alan.

  Alan wakes you at seven o'clock.“Happy birthday!”you say.“You'll find your presents in the living room.”

  You don't have to hurry.Why?

  Your job starts late in the morning.Machines do most of your work.You don't need to work many hours.

  While Alan opens his presents, you turn on your colour TV.You watch and hear the morning news.“It's time to get dressed, Alan!”you call, at last.“Come to see the nice new clothes I have for you.”

  Guess what the clothes are made of.Paper? Glass? Or something we don't even know about today?

  Alan's birthday breakfast is no time to fix.Why? The food may be all ready to eat.You may eat it like candy.

  At last you start for work.But you don't go by car.You step onto a moving sidewalk.It moves you along to a train station.There, you take a train.How will it run? On one rail, high over the street? Or will it ride on air?

  Three o'clock comes.Your work is done for the day.

  “I'll call home,”you say.

  Alan answers the picture phone.

  You and he can hear and see each other.“What shall we do for your birthday?”you ask.“Shall we put on our rocket belts and take a short trip? Or shall we go for a ride in a flying boat?”

  Alan could say,“I want to ride in a rocket ship! Let's fly to the moon!”What do you think of the idea? Give your story a happy ending!

Nearly all kids have had the same experience. They are eating in a restaurant with their parents. They finished the spaghetti minutes ago. Now, they are bored. Their little brother is kicking them under the table. He is also complaining about the desserts(餐后甜点). Yet their parents are still eating and talking…and talking…and talking.
“Be patient.” One parent says. “We’ll have dessert soon.”
All kids know what happens next. After dessert, their parents drink coffee. Then they talk some more. Again, the children must wait. They have been in school all day and would rather be running and playing. Instead, they must sit in a chair and stare at a wall.
Going to a restaurant doesn’t have to be this way. Many restaurants say they are “family-friendly”. Family restaurants, such as fast-food restaurants should play areas for children. At these restaurants, almost every play area is a big room full of climbing equipment. The room is usually, packed with happy kids. Parents can eat while the children play. Everyone is happy.
The real problem begins when families want to eat a fancier meal(大餐). The parents don’t want to hurry through the meal but talk to each other. They do not have bored children pestering(烦扰) them about leaving. That’s no fun for kids either. For them, going to a nicer restaurant means just one thing: sit still and be quiet.
On family blogs across the Web, dozens of parents post the same question all the time; are there any nicer restaurants with play areas for kids? Research shows that some nicer restaurants do have play areas. In warmer cities, it is easier for restaurants to build play areas outside. For example, at one restaurant kids can sail tiny little motor boats in a small, shallow pond. Parents can sit on a beautiful yard and watch the kids play. Some nicer restaurants even have indoor play areas. Research also shows that these restaurants serve more than just burgers, chickens and fries.
So, it’s possible for a restaurant to provide both food and a place where kids can play. These restaurants seem to be popular, too. For some, families must have reservation days in advance. For others, families might be forced to wait in long lines. Clearly, quality food and safe play areas are both good for business.
小题1:Why do children get unhappy at the restaurant?
A.Because they can’t join in their parents’ talk.
B.Because the dessert isn’t served in time.
C.Because they can do nothing but wait.
D.Because the food there isn’t delicious.
小题2:What is the real problem mentioned in the passage?
A.Children don’t like eating fancier food.
B.Not many nicer restaurants provide play areas.
C.Parents don’t trouble to comfort their bored kids.
D.People have to wait for seats in nicer restaurants.
小题3:What conclusion can we draw from the research?
A.It’s common for nicer restaurants to provide good food and play areas.
B.Building play areas is more difficult for restaurants in colder cities.
C.Serving more kinds of foods may help restaurants to make more money.
D.It’s possible for restaurants to find a balance to make both happy.
小题4:What does the writer mainly want to tell us?
A.Cities need to help develop restaurant business.
B.Children are supposed to be much more patient.
C.Restaurants are supposed to give kids some space.
D.Parents need to care more about their kids when eating.
