[　　]

LONDON—A cold bit of Scandinavia is coming to the heart of London’s West End on Saturday with the opening of Absolut Icebar, a bar made entirely out of ice right down to the art on the walls and the glasses for the drinks .

Situated next to the accompanying but room temperature Below Zero restaurant , the bar is kept at minus 23°Fall year round . For a cover charge of 12 pounds （$22.20）, customers are given a thermal cape （保暖斗篷）, thick gloves and a glass made out of ice before entering the second of two airtight doors designed to keep heat out .

“It’s an experience rather than a traditional bar . We feel we’re really offering something different,” said Anette Elisson , a spokeswoman for V &S Absolut Spirits vodka （伏特加） company , which is opening the bar jointly with company Icehotel .

Bar customers who would like a warm meal with find European food at Below Zero restaurant next door .

All the ice for the bar is brought in from the Torne River in the north of Sweden , where the pure water and river freeze to make the finished product “crystal clear,” according to Agnetha Lund , director of Icebar International .

The entire building will be redesigned and rebuilt every six months , because the ice will gradually melt with daily use and the body heat of the crowds , Lund said . Icebar has its art works shaped on site  and opening day art includes a floor-to-ceiling vodka bottle and partial human figures along the walls .

The 10, 764-square-foot bar can hold 60 people . Pre-booking for one of the 45-minute visits is a must.

The newspaper seller was a clean, neat man, of about forty with a rather serious, unsmiling face. He didn’t speak much to the customers or to his helpers, but when he did he spoke slowly and quietly, as if to himself. He believed in efficiency, not conversation. And this was how the office workers, rushing to catch their trains, preferred it.

It had been a good day. Lunch-time had been warm and sunny, and many people had bought magazines to read outside with their sandwiches. Now it was cold and rainy, and people wanted an evening paper for a cheerless journey ahead and a dull evening indoors.

At 6:30, with the main rush over, he started to collect the money together and count it. Then he left the stand and went home. It was the assistant’s turn this evening to look after it till eight o’clock, when it would be packed away for the night. His large white Mercedes was in the private car park of a large Government Building. He’d parked there for six months, pretending to be part of a heating firm working in the building. They would find out about him soon, and he’d have to park in a garage again, which was annoying. Their charges were far too high. A couple of junior clerks, regular customers, happened to see him getting into his car. “Must be a lot of money in papers, eh?” one of them shouted. He just smiled coldly in reply, and got into the car, placing the bags of money on the floor.

He thought about the clerks on the way home. Like the majority of his customers, despite their white shirts and dark suits, they probably made in a week as much as he could make in a good day.

59. It seems unlikely that the newspaper seller would be the sort of man who would    .

       A. be a cheerful companion                        B. try to cheat a customer

60. The assistant’s job that evening was to      .

       A. sell papers until 8 o’clock                      B. start selling magazines at 8 o’clock

       C. count the money taken that day               D. lock up the car park

61. If they realized that he was not a heating engineer he would have to     .

A. park his car in a Government car park

B. look for another free parking place

C. pay to park his car in a garage

D. pretend he was a Government employee

62. When the newspaper seller thought about the two clerks he decided they were   .

A. badly dressed

B. very well off

C. not as rich as himself

D. not as hard-working as himself
