亭子
Kiosk 这个字来自土耳其文的 kiösk (s 底下长脚)，本意是花园中的小屋，即是「亭子」。
德文里借用此字转为 Kiosk，指贩卖书报、烟酒、糖果及饮料等之「贩卖亭」。

称之为「亭子」，则 the sponsor\'s kiosk, local Olympic Committee Kiosk, First-Aid kiosk with equipment and physiotherapist, D.J. kiosk for the D.J. and the presenter, merchandising kiosk for gift distribution and handling, Café kiosk 等都能翻译，不局限在一种特定的功能上。
Merchandising kiosk 是「贩卖亭」。
Café kiosk 是「咖啡亭」。
First-Aid kiosk 是「急救亭」。
依此类推。

白马、黑马、赤兔马，耐跑的就是千里马。
凉亭、报亭、电话亭，长得 kiosk 那个样子的都叫做亭。
黑猫、白猫，会捉老鼠的就是好猫。我家的狗也会捉老鼠。
糟了，该叫牠猫吗？

Comment: "I can not find a suitable translation for the context. But I think it is a kind of site/place.亭子 is only a liberty traslation.
Anyway, thank all of you!!"
