15、 out to find her the prom king she needed to make her a queen.

22、e in the 1960s and 1970s when some people believed that coffee would replace tea as Britains favourite drink, but that did not happen, and today, tea remains Britains favourite drink.To say that the British are fond of tea is something of an understatement(轻描淡写). From the Royal(皇室的) Family down to t

23、he homeless and the out-of-work, tea is more than just a pleasure. It is an important part of life!The popularity of tea in the United Kingdom has a long history. It was in 1657 that Thomas Garway, the owner of a coffee house, sold the first tea in London. The drink soon became popular as another ch

24、oice besides coffee.In those days, however, tea was not something for anyone. For a century and a half, it remained an expensive drink. Many bosses served a cup of it to their workers in the middle of the morning, thus inventing a lasting British institution, the “tea break”. But as a social drink o

25、utside the workplace, tea was served for the nobility(贵族) and for the growing middle classes. Among those who had the money for tea, it became very popular as a drink to be enjoyed in cafs and “tea gardens”.It was the 7th Duchess of Bedford who, in around 1800, started the popular “afternoon tea”, w

26、hich took place at about four oclock. At about the same time, the Earl of Sandwich popularised a new way of eating bread with something (e. g. jam) between them, and before long, a small meal at the end of the afternoon with tea and sandwiches had become part of a way of life.As tea became much chea

27、per during the nineteenth century, its popularity spread right through British society. In working-class households, it was served with the main meal of the day, eaten when workers returned home after a days labour. This meal has become known as “high tea”.Today, tea can be drunk at any time of day.

28、 Most people in Britain drink tea for breakfast. The mid-morning “tea break” is an institution in British offices and factories. Later in the day, “afternoon tea” is still a way of life in the south of England and among the middle classes, while “high tea” has remained a tradition in the north of Br

29、itain.28. Who played an important part in the beginning of tea time in England?A. The Royal Family.B. Thomas Garway.C. The Earl of Sandwich.D. The Duchess of Bedford.29. What does the underlined word “institution” mean in Paragraph 4?A. drink B. workplace C. order D. tradition30. What can we learn f

30、rom the passage?A. The “tea break” kept the workers from being sleepy after lunch.B. Workers could enjoy a cup of tea in “tea gardens” at their workplace.C. The “afternoon tea” together with sandwiches became popular in around 1800.D. “High tea” was usually served with the main meal for the middle c

31、lasses.31. What is the best title of the passage?A. Tea and the British B. The Popularity of TeaC. Tea and the Middle Class D. The History of TeaDWhy should mankind explore space? Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? Why should

32、 resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth? These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked.Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup as human beings. What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible are

33、as and environments? The wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible.Nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas can be

34、identified and prepared for. Without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger. With knowledge, we can lessen its effects.Exploration also allows minerals and other potential resources to be found. Even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. Resources

35、may be more than physical possessions. Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. We have already benefited from other spin-offs including improvements in earthquake prediction, in

36、 satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems. Even non-stick pans and mirrored sunglasses are by-products (副产品) of technological developments in the space industry!While many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and in

37、telligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. The danger exists, but knowledge can help human beings to survive. Without the ability to reach out across

38、 space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist.While Earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to live on other planets. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life cultures have adapted in the past and surely coul

39、d in the future.32. What is the reason for exploring space based on Paragraph 2?A. Humans are nature-born to do so. B. Humans have the tendency to fight.C. Humans may find new sources of food. D. Humans dont like to stay in the same place.33. The underlined word “spin-offs” in Paragraph 4 probably r

40、efers to _.A. survival chances B. potential resourcesC. unexpected benefits D. physical possessions34. What makes it possible for humans to live on other planets?A. Our genetic makeup B. Resources on the earthC. The adaptive ability of humans D. By-products in space exploration35. Which of the state

41、ments can best sum up the passage?A. Space exploration has created many wonders.B. Space exploration provides the best value for money.C. Space exploration can benefit science and technology.D.
