Most people will tell you that they can’t work without a cup of coffee in the morning. Research has shown that a cup of coffee does give a person slight excitement. Legend said that Kaldi, an Ethiopian, found his goats happier while enjoying coffee plants. Curiously, he tasted the leaves and began to dance around. Whether the Legend was true or not, the discovery of coffee dates back to 800A. D. Soon Arabians were roasting coffee beans. Muslims were drinking coffee to stay awake by 1000 A.D. A merchant from Venice introduced coffee to Europe in 1615. By 1696, the Dutch started growing the coffee bush in Java. By 1723, coffee plants were introduced to the Americans. Today, coffee is the most popular drink in the world. Caffeine is the major chemical in coffee. It blocks(阻止) adenosine, a chemical that makes you sleepy. People can get a pick-me-up or stimulation(刺激) from the drink. The stimulation does not last long. Caffeine poisoning can occur if more than 400 milligrams of caffeine is drunk in a short period, which is about four to five cups of coffee. Caffeine will also cause sleep difficulty, so it should not be drunk before bed. Caffeine has many advantages. Studies have shown that it helps improve some skills in elderly women. Women who drank three cups of coffee daily scored higher on memory tests than women who drank one cup of coffee. According to newser.com, one cup of coffee a day protects the brain. Coffee also can help people keep away from many diseases according to webmd.com. Large amounts of coffee can cause nervousness, worries and a fast heartbeat. However, if you mix coffee with milk, it’s fine. Caffeine can be addictive like any drug. The more you drink, the more you depend on it. For some people, just one cup of coffee a day is OK. 1.Who found the most popular drink in the world according to the Legend? A. An Ethiopian.B. Arabians. C. Muslims.D. The Dutch. 2.When was the coffee introduced to Europe? A. In the 1710s.B. In the 1610s. C. In the 1690s.D. In the 1720s. 3.From the third paragraph we can learn ___________.

Millions of British people have ditched the traditional “thank you” and took the place of it with the less formal “cheers”, according to a survey. Although the common person will say “thank you” nearly 5,000 times a year, one in three are more likely to add a “cheers” or “ta” where it’s needed to show they are fashionable. One in twenty now say “nice one” instead, while the younger are more likely to offer a “cool” than a “thank you”. “Merci”, “fab” and even “gracias” were also listed as common phrases to use, as “much appreciated(感激)”. One in twenty who took part in the survey of 2,000 people by the Food Network UK for Thank You Day, which is marked on November 24, 2011, said a formal “thank you” was now not often needed in everyday conversation. More than one in ten adults said they regularly won’t say thank you if they are in a bad mood. Most people stated that saying thank you was something that their parents trained them. A huge 70 percent of those questioned will say thank you to a person’s face without even meaning it, while one fifth avoid(避免)saying it when they know they should. It seems our friends and family get the stress of our bad manners. Half of them admit (承认) they’re not good at thanking those closest to them. Many of them explain that they don’t say thank you because their family “already know I’m grateful”. When spoken words won’t do, it falls to a nice text to do the job for most people. One third will still send a handwritten thank-you note---but 45 percent admit it’s been more than six months since they tried to send one. A quarter of British people say “thank you” with food, with 23 percent cooking a meal to show their appreciation to someone. Another 15 percent bake a cake. It follows that 85 percent of people will be angry because of not getting the gratitude (感激)they feel they should receive. 1.Most of the people who took part in the survey say that they say “thank you” _______. A. when they are in good mood B. completely out of habit C. when they feel truly grateful D. purely out of politeness 2.The underlined word “ditched” in Paragraph 1 means “________”. A. gave upB. used C. sharedD. knew 3.It can be learned from the passage that _______. A. different ways of expressing gratitude are all fashionable B. people should avoid saying “thank you” nowadays C. a thank-you note is still appreciated by most people D. people in a bad mood never say “thank you” 4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Most people express their gratitude to others by buying food for them. B. About fifty percent of people try not to say thank you when they should. C. Most people may feel natural when they fail to receive others’ gratitude. D. Many people think it unnecessary to say thanks to their family members.

Computer games are very popular. It is natural for people to want to win, so playing against a computer or against a friend on the computer can be difficult to stop. “ Just one more game” often turns into another game, then another. Computer games do have their advantages. They are excellent for training hand-eye coordination(协调).Surgeons(外科医生)who play computer games as children are often more skilled. Computer games can also be great for teaching students. The students are open to learning while playing. They can study for longer than a teacher would be able to teach. Students can also learn at their own speed and not feel pressure to match classmates. And with computers you can practise a task as many times as you like. The more you do this, the better you will get, until you can do it perfectly. But like anything else in life, things should be balanced. Too much time on the computer can hurt your eyes. Regular breaks are needed. If students cannot stop playing computer games, they won’t do as well in other areas in their life---not just school work, but in developing important social skills such as how to talk with people and how to work with others as part of a team. And if they are no longer taking regular exercise, their health will become worse. Computer games have their place, but people must also remember it is important to have a balanced lifestyle.

Some people succeed, while others may not. This is because some people have certain q 1. , which others do not have. The first thing you must remember is that in order to s 2. , you must be optimistic(乐观). If you do not expect to win, you will not try as hard as people who do expect to win. You also need to have a clear aim and a r 3. for doing something because motivation(动机) is a key to getting success. If you do not have an a 4. , then you won’t work hard and put your performance under the microscope(显微镜) to make sure that every detail is right. Another quality that helps people succeed is creativity—thinking about things in a d 5. way and wondering how others would do the same thing. Think about some successful people you know. They might be successful with a little creativity, but the most successful people are the most creative o 6. . R 7. is another way to success, as it will help you learn about how other people have got success. If you want to learn how to set up a successful business, you should read books about people like Bill Gates and Jerry Yang, who have got amazing success in their areas of business. Practicing is equally important if you want to be successful because p 8. makes perfect. Practise every day and you’ll feel confident about w 9. you do. This confidence will make other people b 10. in you as well. Finally if you are a successful person, you will be able to look people in the eye and smile confidently.
