Question

ARLANDA, Sweden （Reuters Life!）—Many people hate the idea of having to sleep on a plane. But Swedish entrepreneur Oscar Dios thinks they can be persuaded otherwise and he has created a new kind of hostel to prove it.
Dios says it is the world’s first jumbo （unusually large） jet hostel, an actual jet-plane at Sweden’s main airport outside Stockholm which has been changed into a 25- room guesthouse that sleeps as many as 72 people.
“I learned about this plane that was standing deserted at Arlanda airport and I’ve been trying the concept of hostels in many different houses and buildings,” he told Reuters. “I thought, ‘Why not a plane?’”
Jumbo Hostels opened for business on Thursday, giving customers the chance to check in and sleep in a room that can best be described as comfortable.”
“The most challenging part with this project is trying to build something inside a metal hull（壳） – it’s just really, really tight.”
The jet, which was originally produced for Singapore Airlines, was taken out of service in 2002. It is held on a concrete foundation with the landing gear secured in steel cradles.
One feature of the hostel is its price – a room starts at 350 Swedish crowns （about $ 41）, which is a lot less than hotel rooms outside of major airports.
Another feature is that customers can get married on the wing of the plane and stay in the plane’s more luxurious honeymoon suite （套房）.
Instead of walking down the aisle in the church, lovebirds can take what Jumbo Hostels calls the “wing walk,” where they can be joined in great happiness at the wing tip. The hostel has someone ready to perform the ceremony.
But in some respects this hostel remains a plane – most customers have to share the jet’s nine bathrooms and the staff only wear air host and hostess outfits. The only room that has its own bathroom is the honeymoon suite.

1. Which of the following is not true?

A. The jet plane was out of use for over eight years.

B. The hostel provides ten bathrooms for customers.

A. air hostesses can offer good service

B. a wedding ceremony can be held on the wing

C. customers can sleep in comfortable rooms

D. the staff can have a “wing walk”

3. Why does Oscar Dios make jet plane hotel?

A. Because he is fond of plane very much.

B. Because he is very curious

C. Because he wants to earn more money.

D. Because he likes trying the concept of hotel in many different things.

4. The writer mainly wants to          .

B. describe a wonderful place for weddings

C. introduce a new kind of hostel

阿兰达，瑞典（路透社生活！许多人讨厌在飞机上睡觉。但瑞典企业家Oscar Dios认为他们会被说服，否则，他创造了一种新的宿舍去证明它。

Dios说，这是世界上第一个大型（特大）飞机旅馆，在瑞典斯德哥尔摩的主要机场外面已经变成了一个25间宾馆睡多达72人实际的喷气式飞机。

“我知道这架飞机被闲置在阿兰达机场，我已经在很多不同的房屋和建筑在旅馆的概念，”他告诉路透社。“我想，‘为什么不坐飞机呢？'”

星期四，“大旅馆”开张营业，给顾客一个入住的机会，并在一个舒适舒适的房间里睡觉。

“最具挑战的部分是在一个金属壳内建立的东西（壳）–这是真的，真的很紧张。”

这架喷气式飞机最初是为新加坡航空公司生产的，于2002被取消服务。它是在混凝土基础上举行的，起落架固定在钢架上。

旅舍的一个特点是它的价格——一个房间起价350瑞典克朗（约合41美元），比主要机场外的酒店房间少得多。

另一个特点是，客户可以在机翼上结了婚，留在飞机上更豪华的蜜月套房（套房）。

而不是走过教堂的过道，两人可以采取Jumbo Hostels所谓的“机翼行走”，在那里他们可以加入巨大的幸福在翼尖。宿舍有人准备表演仪式。

但在某些方面，这家旅馆仍然是一架飞机——大多数顾客必须共用喷气式飞机的九个卫生间，而员工只穿着空中主机和女主人的服装。唯一有浴室的房间是蜜月套房。

答案：DBDC
