Bill£ºI heard that the tea culture of China is ¡¾1¡¿ (amaze). Could you tell me something about it.

Ann: Of course. Tea drinking in China is very complicated£¨¸´ÔÓ£©. It starts with the environment. In the past, tea drinking took place in a setting(±³¾°) ¡¾2¡¿_________¡°spring water ran on marbles¡± or ¡° in the woods during sunset.¡± . ¡¾3¡¿______ present, in order to recreate such an atmosphere, teahouses ¡¾4¡¿__________ (decorate) with traditional paintings and furniture. Besides, there is always a ¡¾5¡¿________(perform) of a traditional Chinese musical instrument, such as the guzheng.

Bill£ºHow about the water?

Ann: In the old days, the water that came from melted snow was regarded as the best. Today no one collects snow any longer because of pollution and ¡¾6¡¿_____ people use is bottled water.

Bill£ºIs there any difference in the tea?

Ann: Generally ¡¾7¡¿______ (speak), there are four kinds of tea: red tea, green tea, Oolong tea and Pu¡¯er tea. The first three types of tea are processed using similar methods but Pu¡¯er tea uses a ¡¾8¡¿______ (total) different method.

Bill£ºIs tea drinking in a teahouse very expensive?

¡¾ÌâÄ¿¡¿I am 26. I¡¯m clear that I¡¯m never going to catch up with Mother Teresa. But I want to do something to help people every single day like her.

Everybody thinks we just serve food and soda. The safety training is serious and stressful. Caring for 49 people in a business class in 90 minutes is not easy. I had a roommate who was a waitress; she just left a candle and a table cloth burning, and I used a fire extinguisher (Ãð»ðÆ÷) to put out the fire. If something goes bad at her job, she calls the police. But if something happens up in the air, it¡¯s up to us.

I¡¯m single and have no kids. I¡¯ve flown every Christmas since 1995. If I fly, someone else can be with their kids. Christmas in an airport can be depressing, but it¡¯s the little things that make a difference.

We¡¯re not robots. It¡¯s hard to put on a smile and just pretend everything is great when it isn¡¯t. I¡¯ve seen co-workers lose a family member the day before a trip and just pull themselves together (take control of their feelings and behave in a calm way). At the end of a 14-hour flight, it¡¯s like, ¡°It was really nice to help you, but I¡¯m ready for you to get off the plane.¡± Those last 15 minutes can be the longest 15 minutes of your life. You can¡¯t wait to turn off the flight attendant¡¯s voice and get something to eat without anyone saying ¡°Excuse me.¡±

Sometimes I go all day and never hear a ¡°please¡± or a ¡°thank you.¡± When you say thank you, it¡¯s huge. It makes us feel like you actually see us as fellow humans. We¡¯re up there together at a height of 30,000 feet, enjoying the miracle (Ææ¼£) of the modern flight.

B. Because she¡¯s trying to be a helpful co-worker.

C. Because she owes her co-workers some favors.

C. Flight attendants get tired while robots don¡¯t.

D. Flight attendants need to rest now and then.

¡¾ÌâÄ¿¡¿I have many new teachers in high school, but Lori Runkle, my English Language and Composition teacher, is my favorite teacher.

Ms. Runkle enjoys getting to know more about students, so I have many chances to talk with her after class. I have always wanted to become a journalist (ÐÂÎżÇÕß). Since Ms. Runkle used to be a journalist back in the United States, she has introduced many helpful journalistic writing skills to me.

Although she is my teacher, Ms. Runkle and I are more like friends. She often invites my classmates and me to take part in different activities outdoors. For example, I went to listen to a journalist¡¯s speech, which helped me better understand current events (ʱÊÂ).

Not only does Ms. Runkle talk with me outside of school, she is also a great teacher in the classroom. English Language and Composition is a really hard subject for a second language learner. We felt worried in the beginning, but Ms. Runkle really makes an effort to help us out. In class, Ms. Runkle always encourages students to question everything to keep us active. One part of class I love the most is when groups of students are requested to give speeches on events that are happening in the world. It requires a lot of deep thinking and I really learn quite a lot from it.

I love Ms. Runkle very much. She not only helps me to get good scores, but also acts as a good friend and always gives me advice on life.

¡¾4¡¿What is the author¡¯s purpose of writing this passage?

¡¾ÌâÄ¿¡¿A man walks into a doctor¡¯s office. He has a cucumber up his nose, a carrot in his left ear and a banana in his right ear. ¡°What¡¯s the matter with me?¡± he asks the doctor. The doctor replies, ¡°You¡¯re not eating properly.¡±

This is a popular joke among British schoolchildren. It reflects Britain¡¯s famous dry and satirical way of seeing the funny side of life. This unique sense of humor is often cited as one of Britain¡¯s defining national characteristics.

¡°The famous British sense of humor has long been our most cherished national characteristic,¡± says the British journalist Leo Mckinstry. ¡°We have valued it above historic military victories and great works of literature, above our rich scenic landscape and our talent for invention.¡±

The British sense of humor differs from other countries because it is generally more negative. When it comes to making the British laugh, there is nothing more effective than a socially inappropriate joke.

Popular British comedy shows such as Fawlty Towers, Blackadder and The office are full of sarcasm(·í´Ì), teasing and self-deprecation(×Ô³°). It reflects the culture where mocking, moaning and ridicule is part of everyday life.

While most Britons don¡¯t take these jokes too seriously, foreigners are often puzzled by them. A recent survey found that most foreigners who visited Britain found that the British are ¡°arrogant, unfriendly and have almost no sense of humor¡±.

Do foreigners not understand British humor or are the British just not as funny as they think they are? Mckinstry certainly thinks the British are funny. ¡°Accusing the British of having no sense of humor is like telling Rolls-Royce that its cars are down-market.¡± he says.

¡¾1¡¿What does the doctor actually mean by the remark, ¡°You¡¯re not eating properly¡±?

A. What you have had is the cause of these problems.

B. You are not having the right food.

C. You don¡¯t eat the way people usually do.

D. You eat with the wrong cutlery(²Í¾ß)

¡¾2¡¿The word ¡°dry¡± in Paragraph 2 means _________.

A. without water or liquid inside

B. special and popular among school children

C. dull and meaningless

D. pretending to be serious when really joking

¡¾3¡¿Why do most visitors, who once visited Britain , think that the British are unfriendly?

A. Because the British always take things seriously.

B. Because the British have no sense of humor.

C. Because the British are cold and difficult to get along with

D. Because the British have a different sense of humor

¡¾4¡¿Which of the following are NOT the characteristics of British humor?

A. Dry and satirical B. Negative and mocking

C. Encouraging and gentle D. Clever and witty

Simple ways to get happy

We are not suggesting that you can reach a permanent state called ¡°happiness¡± and remain there. But there are many ways to turn the path of anxiety, anger, and sadness into a state of happiness. Here are four ideas to get you started.___ ¡¾1¡¿_____.

1. Laugh out loud.

Just expecting a happy, funny event can raise levels of pleasure-causing hormones (ºÉ¶ûÃÉ) and lower production of stress hormones. Researchers at the University of California tested 16 men who all agreed they thought a certain videotape was funny. Half were told three days in advance they would watch it. ___¡¾2¡¿__. When they actually watched the video, their levels of stress hormones dropped greatly, while their levels of pleasure-causing hormones rose 27 percent.

2. Do one thing at a time.

Edward Suarez, professor of medical psychology at Duck, found that people who do several things at the same time are more likely to have high blood pressure. ___¡¾3¡¿__ Instead of talking on the phone while cleaning the kitchen, sit down in a comfortable chair and turn your entire attention over to the conversation.

3. __¡¾4¡¿____

Although relationships help take away stress sometimes you need time to recharge and reflect on your own. Take yourself out to lunch or to a movie, or simply spend an afternoon reading at home, or looking through books in a bookstore.

4. Practice mindfulness

____¡¾5¡¿____ Instead of worrying about your check-up tomorrow while having dinner with your family, focus on the here and now---food, the company, and the conversation.

A. Focus on the present.

B. Spend time alone.

C. Take that finding to heart.

D. Take care of the soul.

E. Find a quiet place near your house and make it your secret getaway.

F. They started experiencing biological changes right away.

G. Choose the ones that work for you.
