　　(2015·湖北枣阳统考)

　　For foreigners, entering a public toilet in China can be a horrifying experience. In the 1990s, a third of all complaints to tourism officials in Beijing concerned the design, and the bad smell of public toilets.

　　China has battled smelly toilets for at least 2,000 years. In the Kingdom of Wei (220—266 A.
