Tea drinking was common in China for nearly one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about teaPeople 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 teaUntil 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 addedShe found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk 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 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 oclock stopped her gettinga sinking feelingas she called it She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born

For centuries Stonehenge has mystified and enraptured archaeologists and visitors. So maybe it is not surprising that another monumental wonder from prehistory has been overlooked for so long even though it is just a mile away.

Experts have discovered an “extraordinary” line of giant stones that dates back more than 4,500 years. The area around Stonehenge is littered with prehistoric sights but the 90 or more stones, lying 3ft underground, have only just been discovered by sophisticated radar equipment towed by radar equipment.

The buried monoliths are each up to 15ft tall. Instead of being arranged in a circle as they are at Stonehenge, it is thought they once formed a long standing line.

“We are looking at one of the largest stone monuments in Europe and it has been under our noses for something like 4,000 years,” said Professor Vince Gaffney, from the University of Bradford, one of the archaeologists leading the research. “It’s truly remarkable. We don’t think there’s anything quite like this anywhere else in the world. This is completely new and the scale is extraordinary.”

Prof. Gaffney believes the stones may have been planted by the same people who built Stonehenge, but he doubts whether there is a direct link between the two monuments.

These stones were placed along a steep slope, cut into a natural dry valley to form a C-shaped feature.

Precisely why the stones were put there remains a mystery. The archaeologists believe that at some stage the stones were pushed over. This was not done to damage the monument but rather to preserve whatever it was about the stones that seemed so important. “There was a transformation in the landscape that we do not understand,” Prof. Gaffney said. “The stones had significance. These were special places. Societies were organized, as with the great cathedrals, to create these things.”

【1】What have experts found according to Paragraph 2?

A. An observation post. B. Underground stones.

C. An ancient cemetery. D. A sacrificial site.

【2】 What can we know about Stonehenge from the passage?

A. A post history wonder confused archaeologists centuries.

B. The mystery of Stonehenge has been solved.

C. The stones might have some connections with the Stonehenge.

D. It is the largest stone monument all over the world.

【3】Which sentence is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Such stone monument is common all around the world.

B. The stones might serve for a certain purpose.

C. The stones were inserted into a plain.

D. The stones pushed over were to reduce the height of the monument.

After returning from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station. “The railway owes me 12 pounds,” she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office. “You sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me 12 pounds.”

Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, Madam,” he said politely. “I'll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd.”

The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn't have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sunburnt,” he said to her. “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”

“Yes,” she answered, shyly. “The beach was lovely. And I can swim too!”

“That's fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can't swim a bit yet. Of course,she's only three ...”

“I'm four,” the child said proudly. “I'll be four and a half.”

Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, Madam,” he said. “But you didn't get one for your daughter, did you?”

Err, well ...” the woman looked at the child. “I mean , she hasn't started school yet. She's only four.”

“A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child's return ticket from Jersey costs .., let me see ... 13.50 pounds. The law is the law, but since the mistake is mine ...”

【题目】阅读下面的短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

How Women Were Freed From Their Homes

As late as 1800, a woman’s only place was in her home. Women in business were unheard of. No respectable woman would dream of entering what was strictly a “man’s world”. Even if she would, what could she do? Men were sure that no woman could do a job well outside her home. This was a widely-accepted idea. When the famous Bronte sisters began writing books in 1846, they had to resort to using men’s names as aliases.

Teaching was the first profession opened to women, soon after 1800. But even that was not easy for women to take because most high schools and colleges were open only to men. Oberlin College in Ohio was the first college in America to take in women.

Nursing was regarded as a respectable profession for women only after Florence Nightingale won high credit for her nursing career and became famous. Miss Nightingale opened the first training school for nursing in 1860 in England.

The invention of typewriters in 1867 helped to bring women out of their homes to join the business world. Because women are careful and have nimble fingers, businessmen found that they were well suited to this kind of work.

By 1890, tens of thousands of women were working in schools, hospitals, shops, offices, and factories both in England and the States. Some even managed to become doctors or lawyers. The idea of women working in business and other circles was accepted.

【1】Oberlin College was the first college in America ________.

A.where teaching was a profession only open to women

B.where girls could get advanced education

C. to train women to be teachers and nurses

D . to accept women only as professors and students

【2】It can be inferred from the text that besides nursing, Florence Nightingale was also ________.

A.a doctor

B.a lawyer

C. a teacher

D. a businessman

【3】Quite a lot of women entered the business world ________.

A. soon after 1800

B. when Nightingale became famous

C. at the beginning of this century

D. after the typewriter came into being
