Once upon a time, there was a man who was so famous that everyone
in his country knew him.
One day, the famous man was sitting in a restaurant with his
sister. “It must be great to be famous.
Everyone tries to please you, and you can do whatever you want to,” said his sister. “It’s quite the opposite sometimes, in fact. Because I’m famous, I can’t do what I want to,” he denied. “But look, we’re sitting at the best table and eating the best food. We couldn’t sit here and eat this if you weren’t famous,” said his sister. “I’ll show you what I mean,” said he.
The next day, the famous man picked up his sister and took her to
another country. “I’m not at all famous here,” he said. “Let’s see how we get on.” Soon they found a restaurant, but it was very busy, so they had
to queue. “This wouldn’t have happened if you were famous,” said his sister, but the famous man just smiled.
When they finally got a table, it took the waiter years to bring
what they ordered. And the food supposed to be hot was cold, and the food
supposed to be cold was hot! Eventually, the famous man couldn’t stand any more and asked to see the manager. “This food is awful. We had to wait an hour for a seat, and the
service is also very poor. Look, even my spoon is dirty!”
Showing his horribly yellow teeth, the manager, smiling, said, “Well, that’s just bad luck for you.”
“Don’t you know who I am?” asked the famous man.
“I’ve no idea,” replied the manager.
So the famous man and his sister ran away, without paying.

Heading back to the room for dinner and a hot shower may sound like the act of a tired tourist ,but in a traditional Japanese inn ─ or ryokan ─ those activities can be as interesting as anything along the sightseeing trail.“People going looking for a sort of nostalgic(怀旧的),old-fashioned ,and traditional view of Japanese life will find it most easily in a ryokan,”said Peter Grilli, the president of Japan Society of Boston, Massachusetts.
Many ryokans sprang up in the 17th century to put up feudal lords traveling along the Tokaido highway to Edo(now Tokyo). Today tourists looking for a taste of the country’s historic lifestyle find varying levels of understated elegance in ryokans throughout the country.
A typical stay starts with a greeting from the inn’s staff and a change from street shoes into slippers .An attendant leads guests to their rooms, where slippers are removed before walking on the rice-straw flooring, called tatami. Walking slowly along behind a kimonoclad（身穿和服的）attendant on the creaky wood floors of Fukuzumiro ryokan,s hallways is like stepping back in time. The inn was established in 1890 by a former samurai（武士）.
Tim Paterson ,33, a banker living in Tokyo, has stayed at several ryokans. This New Zealand native leaves after a recent stay at Fukuzumiro. “I think it’s quite good mixing culture with history and not just going to see it ,but living in it, staying in it,”he said. Sliding glass doors line the inn’s rural hallways, bringing in the sound of tricking water and the quietness of the stone and tree-filled courtyards outside.
From the first paragraph, we can see that_________________ .
A. there is no dinner and a hot shower in the ryokan
B. such activities as dinner and shower in the ryokan can take you back in time
C. such activities as dinner and shower mean the same both in ordinary inns and traditional inns
D. such activities as dinner and shower are more important than the sightseeing for tourists
What’s the purpose of building so many ryokans in the 17th century?
A. Providing rooms for the noble when they traveled.
B. Keeping the Japanese traditional style of life.
C. Making people feel elegant in the ryokan.
D. Attracting more tourists to put up in the ryokan.
Which of the following shows the right order of tourists entering the ryokan?
a. An attendant shows guests to their room;
b. The guests take off their shoes;
c. The staff greet the guests;
d. The guests walk on tatami;
e. The guests take off slippers;
f. The guests put on slippers.
A. b ; c ; d ; e ; f ; a B. c ; b ; f ; a ; e ; d
C. c ; a ; d ; b ; e ; f D b ; a ; d ; e ; c ; f
From Tim Paterson’s words in the last paragraph ,we can infer that .
A. he will never stay in such a ryokan again
B. he stays in such a ryokan just for its long history
C. he feels relaxed and culturally enriched after staying in such a ryokan
D. he would rather live in such a ryokan than go back home
