Tea drinking was common in China for about one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about tea. People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive. It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. Some of them were not sure how to use it. They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves. Then they served them mixed with butter and salt. They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children as sandwiches.

Tea was rare and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century. During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.

At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more appreciate of tea. Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day an outstanding French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added. She found it so agreeable. Because she was such a great lady, her friends thought they must copy everything she did, so they also drank their tea with milk in it. Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few British people drink tea without milk.

At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess (公爵夫人) found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o’clock stopped her getting “a submerging(沉浸) feeling” as she called it. She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born.

A.it tasted like milk

B.it tasted more pleasant

C.it became a popular drink

D.Madame de Sevigne was such a lady with great social influence that people tried to copy the way she drank tea

Scientists in Mexico have just begun a new study of one of the world's biggest pyramids: the Pyramid of the Sun, north of Mexico City. They're putting lots of small, high-tech (高科技的) machines under the pyramid to try to unlock some of its secrets. For thousands of years, people have tried to uncover the secrets of the pyramids.

The people who built the pyramids made lots of secret doors and rooms to stop robbers from finding the treasures inside. However, there always have been some smart thieves in history. Now, almost all of Egypt’s pyramids have been robbed, including the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which is the largest pyramid in the world. It is the only one of the ancient wonders of the world that is still standing.

In AD 820, an Arab king named Abdullah Al Manum got a group of workers to dig their way into the Great Pyramid and have a look. Inside the pyramid, they found three rooms —the Queen’s Chamber(墓室), the Grand Gallery and the King’s Chamber. But to their surprise, the men didn’t find the treasures they wanted. The Queen’s and King’s Chambers were both empty! Where were the King’s mummy(木乃伊) and his treasures? Had someone already taken them away? The huge stone doors at the pyramid’s entrance were still closed when Al Manum’s men went inside. How had the thieves got in and out?

Since then, many people have gone inside the Great Pyramid to have a look or to try to take things. But still, no other chambers or walkways have been found.

In 2002, an American team made the most recent visit to the Great Pyramid. Scientists sent a robot into the pyramid, but they only found a mysterious locked stone door.

B.It is the only one of the ancient wonders that is still standing

C.Abdullah A1 Manum took the King’s mummy and his treasures away

D.Scientists found a mysterious locked stone door to the Great Pyramid

When 47-year-old volunteer Susan Boyle stepped on to the stage of Britain’s Got Talent and announced she was unemployed, had never been married and “never been kissed, actually”, few in the audience would have wondered why. This Ms. Boyle, looking unfashionable, from a village in Scotland, shocked the three judges and the audience with the song “I Dreamed a Dream” from the musical Les Miserables on a show of “Britain’s Got Talent”, one of the hottest reality shows in Britain.

She couldn’t hide the awkwardness when walking to the center of the stage in a housedress, and everyone—including the judges—seemed laughing at her when she said she wanted to be as successful as Elaine Paige. As soon as she began singing, however, everyone present fell silent, then rose within seconds to applaud her incredible voice as the celebrity(名人) judges sat open-mouthed, and remained standing to the end.

After her performance, one of the judges Piers Morgan said, “Without doubt that was the biggest surprise I’ve had in three years of this show. When you stood there everyone was laughing at you. No one is laughing now. That was amazing.” Actress Amanda Holden followed, “I am so thrilled because I know that everybody was against you. I honestly think that we were all being cynical(愤世嫉俗的)and I think that’s the biggest wake-up call ever.”

Susan obviously won over the hearts of millions around the world with sensation spreading across the Atlantic. Hollywood actors Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore—who between them have nearly 1.5 million followers—speak highly of her. Kutcher posted a link to the video clip(片段). The Scottish talent made her live American debut(露面) via satellite connection on CBS’s The Early Show, doing an interview and singing live from her room. And she already accepted an invitation from talk show host Oprah Winfrey.

Now Boyle has become one of the world’s hottest celebrities. The video clip of her performance has been viewed more than 50 million times on YouTube, becoming a hit on the Internet. Not long ago she came to China and was warmly welcomed.

Sydney J. Harris accompanied his friend George to his favorite newsstand. George greeted the man selling the newspapers politely, but in return he received rude service. He just acknowledged his customer and never even looked up at him when he requested the late night edition. Accepting the newspaper, George politely smiled and wished the newsman a pleasant weekend. The owner made an indiscernible(难识别的) sound and seemed relieved that the two men had completed their dealing.

As the two friends walked down the street, Sydney J. Harris asked, “Does he always treat you so rudely?” “Yes, unfortunately, he does,” George responded. “And are you always so kind and friendly to him?” “Yes, I am!” George continued as they turned a corner. “Why are you so nice when he’s so unfriendly to you?” With a look of deep thought, George explained, “Because I don’t want him to decide how I’m going to act.”

Who decides how you’re going to act? Is it your circumstances(环境) or the difficult people in your life that determine your responses? When we allow our conflicts to control us, we behave as though getting rid of our predicaments (处境) is our only choice. Therefore, it doesn’t really matter how we treat one another. For example, we say, “This person is causing trouble right now so I don’t care about exercising patience, self-control, and loving kindness. Instead, I want to let them know how angry I’m because of their actions.”

We forget our acts will eventually die down. But the way we handle conflicts will influence our lives for a long time. Will you only respond to the momentary crisis(瞬间危机) or will you be more concerned about the lasting value of what kind of person you are becoming?

68.What surprised Sydney J. Harris most?

A.George greeted rude people politely.

B.The newspaper-seller was too rude.

C.George greeted others politely.

D.George bought papers in the wrong place.

69.The man selling newspapers was rude because .

A.it was late into the night B.George was rude to him

C.Harris didn’t buy papers D.it was his own behavior

70.According to George, who decided how he was going to act?

A.The circumstances. B.The conflicts.

C.The difficult people. D.George himself.

71.According to the last paragraph, when we deal with conflicts, we should .

A.try to win the conflicts B.immediately stop the conflicts

C.consider the long-term benefits D.let others know our anger

Researchers in over 80 nations are taking part in a project to conduct a decade-long census(统计) of sea life. Scientists presented some of their findings at a recent conference as the project neared its completion.

In deep icy waters under Antarctica, scientists found bulbous tunicates, an underground animal, and many newly-discovered creatures believed to be related to starfish (海星) and other marine(海洋的)creatures.

Elsewhere in the world’s oceans, they have recently discovered many kinds of underwater life forms new to science. It is all part of a research effort called the Census of Marine Life.

“There are about 2,000 scientists worldwide involved, ” said Bob Gagosian, President/ CEO of the Consortium for Ocean Leadership. Gagosian helps manage the project. “Everywhere they’ve gone they’ve found new things, ” he says. “The ocean basically is unexplored from the point of view of marine living things.”

Researchers have placed small markers on hundreds of fish and marine animals to track by satellite their migration(迁移)routes and to discover places where sea life gathers.

According to Ron O’Dor, a senior scientist with the Census of Marine Life, knowledge of life on the ocean floor is especially limited. “90% of all the information we have is from the top hundred meters of the ocean,” O’Dor states.

And he says the sea floor is, on average, at a depth of 4, 000 meters. And so, as some machines dive far below what people have previously seen, scientists are discovering new species of plants, animals and living things.

Since the census project began, more than 5,300 new marine animals have been found. Ocean researchers say they hope to catalogue 230,000 species during the census —which some say is only a small part of all the creatures living in the sea.

72.Why do the researchers place small markers on many marine creatures?

A.To catch them. B.To research them.

C.To kill them. D.To protect them.

73.From what Ron O’Dor says, we can conclude that .

A.human beings only know a little about marine life

B.the oceans don’t need to be further explored

C.he considers exploring the ocean a dangerous thing

D.the marine creatures mainly live on the top of the ocean

74.What can we learn from the passage?

A.About 2,000 scientists from America are involved in the project.

B.The census of sea life will last for ten years.

C.230,000 new marine animals have been found.

D.The sea floor is at a depth of 400 meters.

75.Why does the author write the passage?

A.To tell the news that new marine creatures are being discovered

B.To encourage people to find new marine creatures

C.To prove the importance of marine creatures

D.To introduce the newly-discovered creatures.

第一节:任务型读写(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)

阅读下列短文,根据所读内容在文章后的表格中填入恰当的单词。

注意:表格中的每个空只填一个单词。

It is easy for many people to catch a cold in the springtime or fall. It makes us wonder… if scientists can send a man to the moon, why can’t they find a cure for the common cold? The answer is easy. There are actually hundreds of kinds of cold viruses out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn’t a cure for each one.

When a virus attacks your body, your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood rushes to your nose and cause a block in it. You feel terrible because you can’t breathe well, but your body is actually eating the virus. Your temperature goes up and you get a fever, but the heat of your body is killing the virus. You also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting into your cells. You may feel very uncomfortable, but actually your wonderful body is doing everything it can to kill the cold.

Different people do different things to deal with colds. In the United States and some other countries, for example, people might eat chicken soup to make themselves feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm liquids. Other people take medicine to stop various symptoms (症状) of colds.

There is one interesting thing to note —some scientists say taking medicines when you have a cold is actually bad for you. The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn’t have a way to fight it and kill it. Bodies can do an amazing job on their own. There is a joke, however, on taking medicine when you have a cold. It goes like this:

It takes about one week to get over a cold if you don’t take medicine, but it takes only seven days to get over a cold if you take medicine.

Dear Bruce,

How is everything? In your last letter you asked about what changes have taken place in our city. Now I’ll tell you one. By the end of October,2011, more than 1,000 road signs, which used to appear in Chinese characters with Chinese Pinyin, had been replaced by bilingual ones, standing up along the main traffic roads and the hot tourist attraction in our city.

In the past, with the road signs in Chinese only, many foreigners didn’t know Chinese well and lost their way frequently in our city. As more and more foreigners have come to our city, the city government has changed the words in those signs into both Chinese and English. The efforts will make it more convenient for foreigners to travel, live or study. Meanwhile, the efforts can help the city develop much better and faster.

Next time you are in our city, you’ll have no difficulty getting around in it.

Yours truly
