> Can I also ask for an explanation over booths/cubicles/kiosks?
a booth should by rights be any enclosed seating area; think a bench with
walls that can only be approached from one side and requires the requisite
amount of "sliding into". ahem.
a cubicle fought hard for distinction to be a desk area complete with
swivel-action chair (and accompanying kung-fu grips) found in environments
more commonly known as "office"; this too is flanked by walls of sorts on
three sides, has an open top for the tall gits of this world.
a kiosk is an enclosed vestibule which dispenses of communist propaganda
such as "time" and "life", and other pamphlets, magazines--even bars and
biscuits. Or, may be any structure (usually cylindrical) which dispenses
information of any kind.

Biscuits are round cookies. Bars are nefarious places of ill-repute which
serve the demon alky-hol (badum boom!). Uhm. Biscuits must be round or
they are penalized. Bars are straight and narrow thingees. With stuff.
and things. I hope this clears it up.

Dead easy. I'll not fall for this trick question: Ernest Borgnine.
There.
Ha.
