A
It may be hard to believe, but the American Revolution(革命)—the war that
freed the American states from British control—began over a cup of tea. Tea was
not the only thing that caused the war, of course, but it played a very big part.
The British people's love of tea is well-known. When the British won control
over mush of North America in the early 1700s, they brought their tea-drinking
habits with them. Tea quickly became the continent’s most popular drink. As tea
could not be grown locally, just as in Britain, it was shipped into the
country—mostly from India.
In the early 1700s, the Britain government made a special deal with the East
India Company, as an English trading company. They agreed that no other company
was allowed to bring tea to Britain or any country controlled by Britain, including
America. It was a great deal for the East India Company, since it meant that
the company could decide whatever price it wanted for its products. And it always
decided on a high price!
In North America, the local people did not like having to pay such high
prices. Instead of overpaying for tea from the British, they turned to Dutch
traders, who secretly brought tea to the country that was just as good—and much
less expensive. Although this broke the law, the American people didn't care. They
got the same cup of tea at a much lower price.
The East India Company, however, didn't like this at all. By the 1760s, they
were losing millions of pounds each year to Dutch traders— a huge amount of money
in a time when £60 a year was considered a good income. Instead of reducing
their prices to compete with the Dutch, the company asked the British government
for help and the government agre ed.
In 1767, the British introduced new laws that increased the prices of all
goods which were brought into America. These laws helped make the East India
Company even richer and forced local people to pay much more for everything.
The American leaders asked the British government not to do so, but the British
refused to listen. These unfair laws increased Americans' anger about British
rule and the rest, as they say, is history.
1. In the early 1700s where did most tea drunk in America come from?
A.China. B.India. C.America. D.Britain.
2. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to(指)
A.the tea makerB.the America government
C.the British government D.the East India Company
3. Why did many Americans begin to buy tea from the Dutch traders?
A.The tea was much cheaper.B.The tea was a lot healthier.
C.They could buy it more easily. D.They didn't want to support the British.
4. What did the East India Company do to stop losing money?
A.It reduced the price of its tea. B.It improved the taste of its tea.
C.It introduced a new kind of tea. D.It asked the British government for help.
5. What is the passage mainly about?A. Tea trade in eighteenth century America.
B. The relationship between America and Britain.
C. A reason for the start of the American Revolutionary War.
D. The introduction of British tea-drinking habits into America.
B
WeChat is popular among us,but if someone deletes you or blocks(屏蔽)you on
it,does it mean you've made him or her angry?
It depends.
Maybe you have just left messages too often without much valuable informa
tion.For example,the questions are those like ‘how are u?’ ‘what are u doing
?’ ‘do u love me?’ too often.You know,people may feel bored after answering
such kinds of questions time after time.
Another possible reason may be that you've sent something unpleasant to your
friend or in your friend circle.I just blocked one of my middle school classmates
yesterday because she was trying to sell fake goods in the friend circle,and I hate
it quite much.
Some people delete the one's name from friends' list because they no longer want
to see it (maybe ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend) and they don't want the one to
see their “Moments(动态)” on WeChat (maybe they publish very private pictures or
life or thoughts they don't want to share with him or her).
So why you are blocked may depend on his or her mood or preference(喜好),and
the reasons why a person gets blocked are various from person to person.So I suggest
you to write an email or make a phone call to that person if he or she really means
a lot to you to see why he or she is dissatisfied with you,and to find out how you
can make up for the case.
1. From Paragraph 3,we can know if you are blocked that is because ________.
A.you are asking too many boring questions
B.your friend is angry
C.your friend doesn't like answering questions
D.your friend has no time to reply
2. The underlined word “fake” in the passage probably means “________”.
A.令人喜爱的 B.真实的
C.完美的 D.假冒的
3. In Paragraph 5,the underlined word “it” refers to ________.
A.the goods B.the name
C.the private life D.the friend circle
4. ________causes of being deleted or blocked are mentioned in the passage.
A.4 B.2
C.3 D.5
5. Which is the best title for the passage?
A.Friend Circle
B.Why Are You Blocked?
C.A Popular Way of CommunicationD.How to Make Your Friend Satisfied

Sometimes people come into your life and you know at once that they were sure
to be there.They serve some certain purpose,teach you a lesson or help find out
who you are or who you want to become.You never know who these people may be:your
classmate,neighbor,teacher,long-lost friend or even a real stranger.But you
know that every moment they will influence your life in some serious way.
Sometimes things happen to you.At the time they may seem terrible,painful and
unfair.But later you realize that without overcoming those difficulties,you would
have never realized your further ability and advantages.Everythin g happens for a
reason and nothing happens by chance or with good or bad luck.
The people you meet influence your life,and the success and failure you
experience create who you are.Even the bad experience can be learned from.In fact,they
are probably the most poignant and important ones.
Enjoy every day even every moment and take from everything that you possibly
can,for you may never be able to experience it again.Talk to people whom you have
never talked to before,and really listen.You should set your goals high,hold your
head up,tell yourself you are a great one and believe in yourself. You can make
your life anything you wish.Create your own life and then go out and live it.
