【題目】閱讀理解。

Tea drinking was common in China for nearly 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 remained scarce 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 fond of tea.Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added.She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk.Because she was such a great lady that her friends thought they must copy everything she did, they also drank their tea with milk in it.Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few Britons 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 sinking feeling” as she called it.She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born

【1】This passage mainly discusses ______.

A.the history of tea drinking in Britain

B.how tea became a popular drink in Britain

C.how the Britons got the habit of drinking tea

D.how tea-time was born

【2】Tea became a popular drink in Britain ______.

A.in the sixteenth century

B.in the seventeenth century

C.in the eighteenth century

D.in the late seventeenth century

【3】People in Europe began to drink tea with milk because ______.

A.it tasted like milk

B.it tasted more pleasant

C.it became a popular drink

D.Madame de Sevinge was so great that people tried to copy the way she drank tea

【4】We may infer from the passage that the habit of drinking tea in Britain was mostly due to the influence of ______.

A.a(chǎn) famous French lady

B.the ancient Chinese

C.the upper(上層的) social class

D.people in Holland

【題目】Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. "I was a clothes addict," he jokes. "I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled." Today David wears casual clothes-khaki pants and sports shirt-to the office. He hardly ever wears necktie. "I'm working harder than ever," David says, "and I need to feel comfortable."

More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as "dress-down Friday" or "casual Friday." "What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing," said business consultant Maisly Jones.

Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it's easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. "A lot of young people don't want to dress up for work," says the owner of a software company, "so it's hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code." Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative impact on productive. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. "Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day," one person said.

"For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes."

【1】David Smith refers to himself as having been "a clothes addict" because _____.

A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirt

B. he couldn't stand a clean appearance

C. he wanted his clothes to look neat all the time

D. he didn't want to spend much money on clothes

【2】David Smith wears casual clothes now, because _____.

A. they make him feel at ease when working

B. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes

C. he looks handsome in casual clothes

D. he no longer works for any company

【3】In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT _____.

A. saving employees' money

B. making employees more attractive

C. improving employees' motivation

D. making employees happier

Dear Bob,

Thank you for your email, in which you had told me you would celebrate Easter soon. I am very curious about this holiday and have some question to ask you.

First, how long does Easter last? Is it as important as Christmas in your country? I am also interested in their origin. I guess there should have some stories telling people why it started. Could you share some with me? Beside, I am wondering what people usually do celebrate the holiday. I hope I can learn more from Easter. In your email, you mention that you were going to spend Easter with your family. Could you please send me some pictures if it is possibly?

Thank you very much and have lots of fun at Easter!

Yours,

Li Hua
