24、t the school. C. In the airplane. B. At the bus stop. D. In the hospital.B Which country grows the most tea? The answer is India. It grows three times as much as China. Which country drinks the most tea? Its neither China nor Japan. Its Great Britain.In the wild, tea plants may be 30 feet tall. But

25、a plant grown for market is pruned. Pruning keeps the plant only three or four feet tall. This is an easy height for tea picking. Only the two top leaves and bud of each new shoot are picked. So to make money, tea plantations must be huge.In general, there are two kinds of tea. Black tea and green t

26、ea. Black tea is fermented. In the process, the tea loses nearly all of its healthy qualities. Green tea is steamed right after the leaves are picked. Green tea retains its healthy qualities. For example, it may prevent heart disease.How did we get tea bag? The answer: by accident. Tea merchants use

27、d to send samples in tin boxes. This was costly. One merchant thought of a cheaper way. He sent samples in small silk bags. Customers would cut open the bag. They would brew the leaves as usual. One customer put the bag into a pot. Then he just poured hot water over it. And the tea bag was born.Shen

28、 Nong was the first to drink tea. (Shen was a Chinese emperor.) This was about 2737 B.C. Shen had bad digestion. So he drank several cups of hot water daily. One day something happened. Leaves from a wild tea tree fell into the hot water pot. The next cup was poured. The water was now colored. Shen

29、sipped it. He liked it. He drank it all. Shen was proud of his new drink. He served it to his guests. Word spread. People thought this way. Tea is good enough for the Emperor. So it must be good enough for the people. Tea became the drink of China. 57. The best title for this passage should be _. A.

30、 Black Tea B. Tea Plant C. About Tea D. Tea Bag58. One difference between green tea and black tea is that green tea _. A. must be pruned B. has a better taste C. is fermented D. is healthier59.

31、rom this passage that _. A. tea bag was invented by a merchant B. tea is better than any other drink C. tea is popular in many countries D. tea only grows in warm climatesCGeography is the study of Earth and its climates. Scientists use it to study global warming and track the weather. Governments u

32、se it to learn where people live and work and to plan what to do with the land. It is now easier than ever to use geography because of a science called space technology.The United States launched its first satellite in 1958. Some space missions that followed were geographical studies. In fact, earth

33、 science is a big part of the work of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).Astronauts looked out of the space shuttle. They decided to take photographs of Earth from their vantage point. Over the years, picture quality improved. Shuttle photography now shows land features, such a

34、s rivers. It can even show the streets of large cities. Photos of the same places at different times show how the land is changing.NASA does not use just photographs, though. In 1958 it launched TIROS (the Television Infrared Observation Satellite). This first use of a satellite to study Earth was e

35、ffective in giving weather forecasts. It led to the creation of new space tools to use in geography. The Landsat Program began in 1972. This satellite sent detailed views of Earth from space. The pictures were so precise that scientists could count the number and kinds of crops in a field. Landsat s

36、howed where Earths surface had faults along which earthquakes might happen. This information helped in the planning of new cities and factories. Landsat also made discoveries. In Antarctica it located ranges of unknown mountains. It pinpointed small lakes in Virginia that were no ton maps. Landsat,

37、now more advanced, still flies today.Another space tool is Earth Observing-1 (EO-1). This spacecraft flies right behind Landsat. It takes pictures of the same sites. The two sets of pictures, viewed together, show how cities grow and how other places, such as rain forests, become smaller over time.

38、This helps scientists learn how people affect geography.One of the newest space tools is the Geographical Information Systems (GIS). GIS is computer software that helps scientists to study Earth. GIS is different from earlier space tools. Businesses, schools, and even average people not just the gov

39、ernment can use it to show them how changes in the planet might affect them.61. Why do governments study geography according to the passage? A. To improve the environment. B. To make the land use plan. C. To make new discoveries. D. To count the crops in a field.62. Which of the following is true ac

40、cording to the passage? A. The U.S. satellite program began in 1972.B. Landsat was able to take pictures of other planets.C. TIROS was successful in giving weather forecasts.D. GIS can only be used by the government.63. EO-1 takes photographs of the same places as Landsat because _. A. the two group

41、s of pictures can show the changes of Earth B. EO-1 is practicing for future photography missions C. Landsat is out of date and new pictures are needed D. Landsat cant send detailed views of Earth from space 64. From the passage, we can infer that _. A. GIS is the newest computer to study Earth B. N

42、ASA only depends on photos to study Earth C. satellite pictures can give more detailed information D. recent U.S. satellites are as advanced as the old ones DOver the last 70 years, researchers have been studying happy and unhappy people and finally found out ten factors that make a difference. Our

43、feelings of well-being at any moment are decided to a certain degree by genes. However, of all the factors, wealth and age are the top two.Money can buy a degree of happiness. But once you can afford to feed, clothe and house yourself, each extra dollar makes less and less difference. Researchers fi

44、nd that, on average, wealthier people are happier. But the link between money and happiness is complex. In the past half-century, the average income has sharply increased in developed countries, yet happiness levels have remained almost the same. Once your basic needs are met, money only seems to in

45、crease happiness if you have more than your friends, neighbors and colleagues.“Dollars buy status (social position), and status makes people feel better,” say some experts, which helps explain why people who can seek status in other ways, scientists or actors, for example, may happily accept relativ

46、ely poorly-paid jobs.In his research, Professor Alex Michalos found that the people whose desires, not just for money, but for friends, family, job, health, rose furthest beyond what they already had, tended to be less happy than those who felt a smaller gap. Indeed, the size of the gap predicted ha

47、ppiness about five times better than income alone. “The gap measures just blow away the measures of only income.”says Michalos.Another factor that has to do with happiness is age. Old age may not be so bad “Given all the problems of aging, how could the elderly be more satisfied?” asks Professor Lau

48、ra Carstensen. In one survey, Carstensen interviewed 184 people between the ages of 18 and 94, and asked them to fill out an emotion questionnaire. She found that old people reported positive emotions just as often as young people. Some scientists suggest older people may expect life to be harder an

49、d learn to live with it, or theyre more realistic about their time running out. Older people have learned to focus on things that make them happy and let go of those that dont.“People realize not only what they have, but also that what they have cannot last forever,” she says. “A goodbye kiss to a h

50、usband or wife at the age of 85, for example, may bring far more complex emotional responses than a similar kiss to a boy or girl friend at the age of 20.”65. Some actors would like to accept poorly-paid jobs because the jobs_.A. make them feel much betterB. provide chances to make friendsC. improve

51、 their social positionD. satisfy their professional interests66. Professor Alex Michalos found that people feel less happy if _.A. the gap between reality and desire is bigger B. they have a stronger desire for friendshipC. the hope for good health is much greaterD. their income is far below their e

52、xpectation67. We can infer from the passage that older people _.A. would like to have more goodbye kisses than young peopleB. are used to living a hard life because they are kind to othersC. express their positive opinions just as some young people do D. find it easier to feel happy because they are

53、 more realistic 68. According to the passage, the feeling of happiness _. A. increases gradually with age B. is controlled partly by desires C. has little to do with wealthD. is decided mostly by genesEAlthough cliff diving may bring great excitement, its a very dangerous sport that people should be careful about. It is completely wrong to think that the diver is cushioned by the water belowthis could not be further from the truth. When jumping from a cliff that is over 70 feet high, a diver hits the water at over
