    Starbucks(星巴克) coffee shops have good drinks and comfortable seats. They are {#blank#}1{#/blank#} places to have a drink.

In the 1990's, Starbucks went {#blank#}3{#/blank#} . They opened the first shop in Japan in 1995. After that, shops opened in countries all over Asia. By the year 2000, there had been {#blank#}4{#/blank#} 3,000 Starbucks coffee shops around the world. Starbucks is much more than a coffee shop. The company is part of many community(团体) projects.
