Most workers left there and found jobs in the other hotels.  Mr.Johnson had to do most work himself.

It was eleven o’clock. Most rooms were still empty. Mr.Johnson worked for the whole day and was very tired. He went to close the gate when a young man came in, with a big bag in his hand.

“What can I do for you, sir?” asked Mr.Johnson.

“The cheapest room in your hotel.”

“OK,” said Mr.Johnson, “but it’s on the top floor.”

“It doesn’t matter. I think you have a lift in your hotel.”

“Of course, sir,” said the manager. “It’ll take you right there. By the way, may I keep your bag for you?”

“No, thanks. There’s nothing expensive in it but a long rope.”

“Oh? What do you bring it with you for?”

“I’m afraid another fire will happen in your hotel. If it does, I’ll throw the rope out of the window so that I’ll be able to escape from（逃脱）it.”

“Yes?” Mr.Johnson said in surprise. “So you have to pay for the bill before you go to your room.”

22、When it comes to Chinese and Western restaurants, the differences are big. One main difference is in the menus.

In Western restaurants, the menus are usually very clear. They tell you what is in each dish. They also tell you how people cook those dishes. For example, the menu might tell you that a hamburger has cheese and ketchup (番茄酱). You can also know whether a dish is fried or steamed (蒸).

However, Chinese menus usually don’t tell you these things. But you can see a lot of pictures in them. Most Western menus do not have as many pictures as Chinese ones. In some fancy Western restaurants, the menus might not have any pictures at all. You can only find the names and the high prices of the dishes.

The names of Chinese dishes are usually not very clear. Disanxian is a nice name. But it doesn’t tell you anything about this dish. However, with a picture, you can tell what is in this dish. This dish has potatoes, green peppers and eggplants. Having more photos also makes the menus more attractive to people. It can make you feel good about eating in the restaurant.

C．Clear.

D．Colorful.

【2】How can you know what is Disanxian from the passage?
