The options menu was in mixed-up languages: some items are in English, others are in Simplified Chinese. Is there a way for me to restore the options Menu to English only?

PS: My Firebug menu is also affected and now display the Menu in mixed Chinese and English words. Please refer to the reply below for the screenshot.

I found that links by clicking the gear icon on a results page, then Search Settings, then in the left navigation column, Languages. Probably better to bookmark the link.
