Tea was first prepared with boiled water as a medicine around 2,700 BC in the western mountains of China. Tea was likely seen as healthy in part because it was made with boiled water, which is safer to drink in an area of polluted water. Tea drinking, and commercial growing, spread during the Tang Dynasty, 618 ~ 907, especially after Lu Yu wrote a book on the value of tea, Ch 'a Ching. Tea gradually became one of the seven basic necessities of Chinese life. (The others are fuel, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar.) A Japanese Buddhist priest, Saicho, is believed to have introduced tea to Japan, when he returned from a visit to China in 805. In Japan tea drinking was considered medicinal, and became closely associated with Zen Buddhism (禅宗). Tea drinking also spread to Korea and Southeast Asia, and was taken over the Silk Road to Central Asia, Russia, and the Middle East. Dutch explorers became familiar with tea in the 1590s and were soon importing tea to Europe. In 1657 the British East India Company held the first public sale of tea in England, while that same year Thomas Garraway began offering tea at his London coffee house. In 1662 tea received a big boost (推进) in England when the Portuguese Catherine of Braganza, married King Charles II and introduced tea drinking to the British court. Gradually, the British fell in love with tea, and with the sugar that went in it. In 1665, less than 88 tons of tea was imported to Great Britain. By 1700, it had increased to 10,000 tons of tea, ranking first in Europe. In 1768 the East India Company imported 10 million pounds of tea to Britain. 25 .Tea has been used as a medicine in China for about________________. A. 8,000 years B. 4,700 years C. 2,200 years D. 2,700 years 26 .Tea began Go spread as a popular drink in China because of_________________. A. the Silk Road B. the basic necessities of Chinese life C. a famous book about tea D. its association with Zen Buddhism 27. According to the text，we can infer that Britain_______________. A. first introduced tea to Europe B. was the first country to trade with China for tea C. was the first country to have learned about tea from China D. might be the biggest importing country of tea in Europe in the 1700s 28. What is the text mainly about? A. The history of tea. B. The importance of tea. C. The home of tea. D. Benefits of tea drinking C Margaret Thatcher was born at Grantham, Lincolnshire on October 13, 1925 and died of a stroke at the age of 87 in London on April 8, 2013. She was Britain's first female prime minister and served three terms in office .She was one of the most important political figures of 20th century Britain, and continues to have a huge influence. Margaret's father Alfred Roberts was a grocer and her mother Beatrice a homemaker and dressmaker. Margaret had an older sister Muriel, born in 1921. The family lived in a 3-story brick building, with the grocery on the first floor. The girls worked in the store, and the parents took separate vacations so that the store could always be open. Alfred Roberts was also a local leader: a member of the Rotary Club, the town's mayor . He was the chief influence on Margaret's interest in politics in her early life. She enjoyed her school years in Grantham. But when her thoughts turned to university it was Somerville College, Oxford, rather than the local Nottingham University. In 1943 she arrived at Somerville to read Natural Sciences. Once at Oxford, she proved a hard-working and outstanding Chemistry student. Her tutor was the Nobel Prize- winning Dorothy Hodgkin. Hodgkin was helpful to her charge, receiving a number of grants (助学金) to help her make ends meet, but Margaret looked to politics for friendship. The following year this serious, determined and by now extremely attractive young woman was elected president of the Oxford University Conservative Association (OUCA), only the third woman to hold that position. Among Margaret's contemporaries at university, her closest personal and political friend was Edward Boyle, for whom she had a deep affection long after their views had diverged (分歧). In 1947 Margaret Thatcher graduated from Oxford with a solid second—class digress and a growing political ambition. Yet the possibility of her managing to follow that dream looked remote. Having no independent income, she had to start earning a living at once. After several rejections, she began her work at BX Plastics, outside Colchester. Later she worked as a research chemist at J Lyons in Hammersmith. The move to London was necessary because Margaret Thatcher had, in 1949, been selected as the Tory parliamentary candidate for Dartford. Aged just 24, she was the youngest woman candidate in the 1950 general election, and her picture appeared in the Illustrated London News and even in the West German press. 29. While Margaret was young, she__________. A. looked forward to a vacation with her parents B. took good care of her sister C. helped in the family store D. learned to make dresses 30 .At Oxford, Margret liked to make friends with people who_________. A. showed interest in politics . B. showed true kindness to her. C. had gained many success. D. were good at natural science. 31 .Why didn't Margaret take up politics when she graduated? A. She hadn't gained enough knowledge. B. She couldn't receive any help from others. C. She had to make a living by herself. D . She was interested in chemistry then. 32 .This text is mainly about Margaret's___________. A. family background and her childhood B. early life and her gift for politics C. university life D. political life D Although some people don't like using automatic hand dryers in restrooms, it may actually be argued that motion-sensing hand dryers are a practical alternative to paper towels. More and more businesses are using automatic hand dryers in their restrooms today. I believe that our school would benefit from investing in automatic hand dryers in all the restrooms. First of all, the automatic hand dryer is very sanitary . Instead of pulling on a lever (手柄) that has been touched by a large number of students, users can just stick their hands under the air dryer. No germs can get on them because there is nothing to touch. Kids wouldn't get sick from the paper towel dispensers (纸巾盒) we now use at our school. This would keep kids' hands germ-free. In addition, if the school buys automatic hand dryers, we can save money that can be spent on more important things. I have noticed that there is a terrible waste of paper towels in the restrooms. Students continuously pull on the lever, dispensing towels that they do not really need. It is annoying to find the dispenser empty. An automatic hand dryer costs about $500, with very little additional cost over time. On the other hand, paper towels can cost $25 a case, or about $500 a year, since we use about 20 cases each year. After just one year, it would pay for itself. If we installed automatic hand dryers, we would not waste paper towels, and it would save the school a ton of money. Finally, our bathroom is a paper towel mess! There are always piles of paper towels on the floor. Sometimes the extras fall from the dispenser unused. Many times kids make their used towel into a ball and aim for a basket. But if they miss the target, the paper ball stays on the floor. Paper towels leave so much litter in the restrooms that the restrooms are a mess -- even before the end of the day! Some people think that automatic hand dryers don't dry their hands as thoroughly as paper towels. People stand in front of the hand dryers for just a few seconds, and they are disappointed that their hands do not feel dry. However, studies have shown that when people dry their hands for at least 30 seconds, automatic dryers actually dry much better than paper towels. It is difficult to get every part of your hand dry using paper towels. The air makes sure that your hands are completely dry ... if you take a few extra seconds. Keeping kids healthy, saving money, and helping our school stay clean are strong reasons for installing automatic hand dryers. Every day that goes by without having them means that we are continuing to have problems in our restrooms because we are using paper towels. Let's install automatic hand dryers as soon as possible! 33 .The automatic hand dryers are more sanitary in that_____________. A. they can kill germs B. they keep kids' hands free of germs C. they cannot be reached by kids D. they will clean themselves automatically 34. What is the main idea of the third paragraph? A. Schools should spend more money on important things. B. Both automatic hand dryers and paper towels cost a lot. C. Automatic hand dryers are more economical than paper towels. D. Schools can make use of automatic hand dryers to make money. 35 .The main purpose of the text is to____________. A. discuss the benefits of a new product B. protect kids from getting sick in school C. persuade the school to install automatic hand dryers D. call on people to pay more attention to the environment 第二节 (共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项. Our towns, cities, parks, and green spaces need help just like people and animals do. Without the efforts of volunteers who care about the communities we live in, pollution and other problems could soon be out of control. Everyone wants to live in a clean, safe, and beautiful area. However, few people know how to help to create a beautiful environment. 36 1. Recycling. Recycling means taking materials like glass, paper, metal, and plastic, and helping to turn them into new products instead of just throwing them away. 37 As a "recycling ranger (回收管理员) ", you can organize recycling drives in your area or encourage people you meet to take their unwanted materials to a local recycling center. 2. Planting trees. 38 Trees can keep soil from being washed away in the rain, make parks and public spaces more beautiful. And they can help create more oxygen to breathe. 39 If necessary, raise money for a national tree-planting group, or get involved in one in your local area. 3. Clean up projects. 40 It gives people a reason to be proud of their community. You can do it by organizing a "clean up" day for a park, beach, or area of woods, and offer prizes for the person or team who picks up the most trash. A. Here's how you can lend a hand. B. It is more important than you might think! C. Picking up litter makes a better, more beautiful environment for everyone. D. You can help by talking to your family about buying and planting young trees around. E. No matter how old you are, or where you live, there's a volunteer opportunity out there. F. Donate money to help neighbors make your community more beautiful with new plantings. G. This also saves energy and resources by reducing the amount of brand-new stuff we have to make. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。 I was required to read one of Bernie Siegel’s books in college and had a great liking for his positivity from that moment on.
