这篇短文主要介绍了荷兰首都阿姆斯特丹，有一家独特的儿童餐厅，它完全由孩子们经营，这家餐馆几乎受到所有人的欢迎。

【1】细节理解。根据All of them are willing to work there and they are very proud of the work.可知：饭店的孩子们都很乐意在这家饭店工作，而且引以为豪。 故选B。

【2】词句猜测。根据下文and other staff members are all children from 6 to 12 years old. 其他工作人员都是6到12岁的孩子。可知，上文From the manager to the cooks, cashiers, waiters or waitresses说从经理到厨师、收银员、服务员或女服务员，根据the cooks ；waiters or waitresses 这些都是餐馆中的职务，可知，cashiers 的意思是“出纳员/收银员”。 故选C。

【3】推理判断。根据文中These children are selected in Amsterdam.可知，这些孩子是在阿姆斯特丹挑选出来的。选项A是正确的；根据文中The restaurant is welcomed almost by everyone. Since there are only 20 seats in the restaurant, it is always very crowded.So you should make a reservation months in advance.可知，这个餐馆很受欢迎你要提前点餐，选项B是不正确的，不是如果你不提前一个月点餐，你在“城里”就得不到食物。根据文中The restaurant is welcomed almost by everyone. Since there are only 20 seats in the restaurant, it is always very crowded.可知，这家餐馆几乎受到所有人的欢迎。因为餐厅只有20个座位，所以总是很拥挤。但并不是每个人都喜欢，原文中为almost everyone，几乎所有人，选项C是错误的；根据文中These children are selected in Amsterdam. 这些孩子是在阿姆斯特丹挑选出来的。选项D是错误的，并不是所有的6到12岁的孩子想来都可以在这家餐厅工作。故选A。

【4】推理判断。根据This restaurant was founded in 1983 by a woman cook，可知这家饭店建于1983年，迄今由三十多年的历史了。选项A是错误的；根据文中Usually US $ 4 for each adult, but much cheaper for the children. 通常每个成人4美元，但对孩子来说要便宜得多。选项B正确；根据文中This restaurant was founded in 1983 by a woman cook可知，开这家餐馆的那个女人以前是个厨师。根据文中Since there are only 20 seats in the restaurant, it is always very crowded.因为餐厅只有20个座位，所以总是很拥挤。a score of seats.表示二十个座位，这个说法是正确的。故选A。

【5】细节理解。根据文中This restaurant was founded in 1983 by a woman cook可知，这个儿童餐馆“过去”是被一个女厨师经营的。故选A。
