Here are four attractions you should see along the Mother Road:1. Paul Bunyan and a Hot DogRoute 66 travelers
11、pass by many fiberglass giants(巨人)right along the road. These giants were a popular form of advertising in the 1960s.Many of them stood in front of service stations.

12、tatues would get travelers attention.The first fiberglass giant was a “Paul Bunyan” figure, built in the early 1960s. Its said that Paul Bunyan is a famous wood worker.2. Crown Candy Kitchen and Jamaica RayCrown Candy Kitchen has been serving Route 66 travelers from the very beginning. It is just a
13、few short blocks from the 66 path through St. Louis, Missouri. The family-run soda fountain shop opened more than 100 years ago, and has been making candies and meals ever since.On weekends, people sometimes wait in line for a table at Crown Candy for over an hour. Luckily there is free entertainmen
14、t right outside. Jamaica Ray, a local folk artist, creates unusual sculptures.3. The Worlds Largest Rocking ChairFanning, Missouri, is home to one of the strangest Route 66 attractions. Just off the road sits an almost 13-meter-tall rocking chair.The structure was completed in 2008 on the first of A
15、pril, or April Fools Day. At one time the chair actually rocked. But officials decided it had to be still to be safe for ever. People are not permitted to climb the chair. We think, however, that it probably happens once in a while, when no one is watching.4. Big Texans Steak ChallengeFew places bet
16、ter represent the common expression “Everythings Bigger in Texas” than the Big Texan Steak Ranch. Since 1960.it has appealed to travelers with big appetites and a big love of beef.It is hard to miss the huge yellow restaurant or the giant cow statue that sits out front. The cow advertises Big Texans
17、 special deal, and what has made this steak ranch famous: a “free” 72-ounce(英两)or 2-kilogram steak. There is one trick: the steak is only free if you can eat the entire thing in one hour.A special table is in the middle of the restaurant for the daring diners who accept the challenge.

The daring diners sit around at a special table in the restaurant.BThese days, young people in some English-speaking countries are speaking a strange language, especially when communic
21、ating on social media.Look at these words chosen by The Washington Post: “David Bowie dying is totes tradge,” and “When Cookie hugged Jamal it made me totes emosh.” Or this sentence: “BAE, let me know if you stay in tonight.”What on earth do they mean? Well, “totes” is a short form of “totally”. Sim
22、ilarly, “tradge” means “tragic” and “emosh” means “emotional”. It seems that, for millennials(千禧一代), typing in this form is not only time-saving but fashionable.As you can see, many millennial slangs(俚语)are formed by so-called “totesing”the systematic abbreviation(缩写)of words. The trend might have s
23、tarted with “totally” becoming “totes”, but it now has spread to many other English words.The origins of other millennial slangs are more complex than “totesing”.“Bae”, for example, has been widely used by African-Americans for years.

24、r, like “sweetheart”, for someone without romantic connection.

She say
25、s when people are able to use a language in a creative way, they show that they know the language rules well enough to use words differently. Two other linguists, Lauren Spradlin and Taylor Jones, share the same view. The two analysed hundreds of examples of totes-speak and discovered totesing has c
26、omplex roots.It isnt simply an adult version of baby talk, nor a clever way to minimize your word count.
