　　All around the world, people drink tea. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries people have very different ideas about drinking tea. In China, for example, tea is always served when people get together. The Chinese drink it at any time of the day at homes or in teahouses. They prefer their tea plain, with nothing else in it. Tea is also important in Japan. The Japanese have a special way of serving tea called a tea ceremony (仪式). It is very old and full of meaning. Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony. There is even a special room for it in Japanese homes.

　　Another tea-drink country is England. In England, the late afternoon is“teatime”. Almost everyone has a cup of tea then. The English usually make tea in a teapot and drink it with cream and sugar. They also eat cakes, cookies and little sandwiches at teatime.

　　In the United States people drink tea mostly for breakfast or after meals. Americans usually use teabags to make their tea. Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapots. In the summer, many Americans drink cold tea－“iced tea”. Sometimes they drink iced tea from cans, like soda.

The passage is about ________.

[　　]

A．Chinese tea

B．why tea is important

C．the teatime in England

D．different ways of tea drinking in different countries

　　In the 1930s, a lot of people in the USA were out of work. Among these people was a man named Alfred Butts. He always had an interest in word games and so, to fill his time, he planned a game that he called“Lexico”. However, he was not completely satisfied with the game, so he made a number of changes to it and, in time, changed its name from “Lexico”to“Alph”and then to“Criss Cross”.He wanted to make some money from his new game but he didn't have any real commercial(商业性的)success.

　　In 1939, Butts happened to meet a man called Jim Brunot who showed an interest in the new game. The two men worked together on developing the game and in 1948 it was offered for sale in the United States under its new name－“Scrabble”.

　　At first it didn't sell very well. In the first year it sold just 2250 sets and by 1952 it had only reached 8500 sets a year.

　　Then, in 1952 the manager of Macy's department store in New York, Jack Strauss, happened to play“Scrabble”while he was on holiday. He thought it was a wonderful game and, when he went back to work after his holiday, he insisted that Macy's should stock(储备) the game and make an effort(努力) to call the public's attention to it.

　　As a result,“Scrabble”became a big success in the United States and it soon spread to Australia and then to other English-speaking countries.

The text is mainly about ________.

[　　]

A．Lexico
B．three men
C．a word game
D．Alfred Butts
