com~$to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants．
The Tall Persons Club Great Britain(TPCGB)，which was formed six months ago to campaign
(发起运动)for the needs of the tall，has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants．Beds that are too small，shower heads that are too low ,and restaurant tables with hardly any leg．room all make
life difficult for those of above average height ,it says．
But it is not j us t the extra-tall whose needs are not being met．The average height of the
population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds,doorways，and chairs has remained unchanged．
‘'The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larger than the person using it, SO even a king—size bed at 6．6”(6 feet and 6 inches)is falling short for 25％of men，while the standard 6'3nbed caters for(满足需要)less than half of the male(男性)population，\
Phil Heinricy,“Seven-foot beds would work f me．\
Similarly, restaurant tables can cause no end of problems．Small tables，which mean the long．
1egged have to sit a foot or so away from them，are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere．
Some have already taken note，however．At Queens Moat Houses’Caledonian Hotel inl Edinburgh，6'6”beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors,
particularly Americans．
64．What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign? A．To provide better services． B．T0 rebuild hotels and restaurants．
C．To draw public attention to the needs of the tall． D．To attract more poeple to become its members．

66．What may happen to restaurants with small tables? A．They may lose some customers．

C．They have to find easy chairs to match the tables．
D．They have to provide enough space for the long-legged． 67．What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh? A．Tall people pay more for larger beds．

Cassandra Feeley finds it hard to manage on her husband’s income．So this year she did
something more than a hobby(业余爱好)：She planted vegetables in her yard．For her first garden，
Ms．Feeley has put in 15 tomato plants，and five rows of a variety of vegetables．The family’s old
farm house has become a chicken house，its residents arriving next month．Last year， Ms．Rita
Gartin kept a small garden．This year she has made it much larger because，she said，“The cost of everything is going up and I Was looking to lose a few pounds，too；SO it's a win-win situation all around．”
They are among the growing number of Americans who，driven by higher living costs and a
falling economy(经济)，have taken up vegetable gardening for the first time．Others have
increased the size of their existing gardens．Seed companies and garden shops say that not since
the 1970s has there been such an increase in interest in growing food at home．Now many gardens across the country have been sold out for several months．In Austin，Tex．，some of the gardens have a three-year waiting list． George C．Ball Jr．，owner of a company ,said sales of vegetable seeds and plants are up by
40％over last year ,double the average growth of the last five years．Mr．Ball argues that some of
The reasons have been building for the last few years．The big one is the striking rise in the cost offood like bread and milk, together with the increases in the price of fruits and vegetables．Food
prices have increased because of higher oil prices．People are now driving less，taking fewer
vacations,SO there is more time to garden．
