    The passage describes a joke involving a gorilla that goes to a coffee shop. The gorilla orders a cup of coffee and sits quietly staring at the ceiling. When it's time to pay, the gorilla hands the waiter a five-pound note. However, when the waiter returns with change, he only gives the gorilla a pound coin, thinking gorillas won't know the difference. But the gorilla demonstrates its intelligence, commenting "I'm not surprised, with coffee at four pounds a cup."

    The Gorilla Joke

    A gorilla went into a coffee shop, sat down and ordered a cup of coffee.

    The waiter was a bit nervous at first, but there weren't any other customers

    and the gorilla seemed quite friendly, so he let him sit in peace. Who'd

    argue with a gorilla, anyway? While the waiter made the coffee, he

    watched the gorilla from the kitchen. The gorilla just sat there, staring at

    the ceiling. The kettle boiled and the waiter made a fresh cup of coffee and

    took it in. The gorilla handed him a five-pound note, and went on drinking

    coffee. The waiter took the five-pound note and went back to the kitchen to

    get some change. While he was in the kitchen he watched the gorilla, who

    drank the coffee, but for the rest of the time just stared at the ceiling. The

    waiter thought to himself, 'That gorilla won't know the difference between

    a pound note and a five-pound note — he's only a gorilla, after all.' So he

    took a pound coin and went in to give it to the gorilla. As he handed it over,

    he said: "We don't get many gorillas in here". The gorilla took the pound

    and replied: "I'm not surprised, with coffee at four pounds a cup"

    Entertainments.

    There is a plenty of entertainments in the world and people can choose

    them according to their tastes, mood or maybe opportunities.

    Entertainments include films, TV. books, concerts, cinemas, theatres,

    discos, travelling and different parties. Some families prefer to take their

    children to museums, art galleries or parks at the weekend. It's a nice way

    of spending free time together for the whole family. It is quite normal for

    British families to visit theme parks in summer. The amusements on offer

    at such parks include a range of rides in various ways, some of them can

    bathe you in the water. The really adventurous rides turn you upside down

    at great speed. It's very exciting for all visitors. And this must be how the

    British enjoy themselves most because last year the nine most famous

    theme parks attracted more than twenty million visitors. The British
    Museum is another place which attracts people in their free time. It is

    officially described as the National Library and Museum of History,

    Archaeology, Art and Ethnography. Here it is possible to find great

    collections, including exhibits from the Pacific islands (ancient Polynesian

    idols) and America (the Aztec sculptures).
