問題詳情
60.BWhile small may be beautiful, tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems, particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.The Tall Persons Cub Great Bitain (TPCB, which was formed six months ago to campaign for the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants. Bds that are too small, showe 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.Bt it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met. The average night of the population has been increasing ye 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′3″ bed caters for less than half of the male population.” Said TPCBpresident Phil Heinricy, “seven-foot beds would work fine.”Sililarly, restaurant tables can cause no end of problems. Small tables, which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them, are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere.Some have already taken note, however. A Queens Moat Houses′Cledoman Hotl in Edinburgh, 6′6″beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors, particularly Aericans.What is the purpose of the TPCBcampaign?
(A) To provide better services.
(B) To rebuild hotels and restaurants.
(C) To draw public attention to the needs of the tall.
(D) To attract more people to become its members.
