The average UK citizen consumes nearly 2 kilograms of tea each year.‎ Tea only made its way to England in large quantities in the first years of the 17th century.‎ ‎ Tea from China and a few other Asian countries was being sold more widely in England at that time. Then tea was getting more and more popular among different social classes.‎ There are many varieties of tea. Black tea mixtures are still the most common type drunk in the UK. Black tea is dark in colour, because the leaves have been allowed to oxidize (氧化) before drying. This is why we usually serve it with milk, although it is not uncommon to drink it black or with lemon. You may still find tea made with loose tea leaves, served up in a pot, and poured into the best china cups with saucers (茶托) for visitors.‎ Tea is still a large part of daily life in the UK today, but it seems to be on the decrease. The amount of tea sold in the UK fell by more than 10% in the five years leading up to 2002, and has been dropping ever since. Tea sales fell by 6% in 2014 alone, and most restaurants report selling more than twice as many cups of coffee as they do tea. More than ￡1 billion was spent on coffee in high street stores in 2013, more than twice what was spent on tea bags.‎ Still, what goes around comes around; it’s sure to become fashionable again.‎ ‎21.Which of the following is true according to the first three paragraphs?‎ A. Tea made its way to England in the early years of the 16th century.‎ B. The UK usually serves black tea with lemon.‎ C. Tea from China was being sold more widely in England now.‎ D. UK citizens take pride in being “tea people”.‎ ‎22.What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?‎ A. Tea sales fell by 6% in 2014 alone. ‎ B. In 2013, the money spent on tea was￡3 billion C. Since 2002, the sales of tea have been on the decrease D. Most restaurant like selling tea than coffee.‎ ‎23.What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?‎ A. It can never succeed again B. The tea is becoming less popular C. Coffee is more popular than tea D. The tea can become popular again B I am traveling home. It is bitterly cold and snowy, but the warm train is right on time. I feel pleasantly satisfied as I look out at the rush hour traffic on the motorway. I feel more satisfied as the smell of fresh coffee announces the arrival of the drinks service. Swiss friends often tell me, proudly, that their rail service is the best in the world, but recently, one experience has proved that the great Swiss love affair with their railway has turned a little sour.‎ It all began with the decision to end ticket sales on trains. One cold morning I arrived at my local station only to find that the ticket machine was broken. No matter, I thought, I have got a smart phone, and I hurriedly set about buying my ticket that way. This was not as easy as I had expected, busying myself between credit card and phone with freezing cold fingers, but, by the time I got on the train to Geneva I had an e-ticket and I proudly showed it to the conductor. Unfortunately she told me that my ticket was not valid(有效的). Several weeks later a letter arrived from Swiss railways together with a fine for 190 francs ($ 210).‎ The good people there tell me the formal payment for my ticket from my credit card company arrived four minutes after my train left the station. That means, they say, that I bought my ticket on the train — and that is strictly prohibited.‎ Swiss railways say their policy is designed to protect honest ticket-paying passengers, but a quick look at their balance sheet suggests something else. The company is making about $2‎ ‎ million a month from fines.‎ Although train travel is still popular, those seats do not feel as comfortable; the coffee does not smell quite so good — because Swiss railways have lost, for now anyway, something far more precious than $2 million a month: good relations with their customers.‎ ‎24. What can we learn from paragraph 1?‎ A. The Swiss trains usually come late.‎ B. Traffic on the motorway goes smoothly.‎ C. The author is generally pleased with the Swiss rail service.‎ D. The author hates traveling on the Swiss train.‎ ‎25. Why did the conductor say that the author’s e-ticket was invalid?‎ A. It was purchased online.‎ B. It was paid on a smart phone.‎ C. It was purchased on a ticket machine.‎ D. It was paid for after the train’s departure.‎ ‎26. What does the author think of the new policy of Swiss railways?‎ A. It damages company-customer relations.‎ B. It makes the company lose a lot of money.‎ C. It attracts more people to travel by train.‎ D. It protects honest ticket-paying passengers.‎ C British chemist David Evans has become an overnight celebrity（名人） on Chinese social media. His chemistry experiments have attracted over 2 million followers in just a few months. Evans is a chemistry professor at the Beijing University of Chemical Technology. The 60-year-old always wears a white lab coat, a pair of safety goggles (护目镜), and smiles often. Some web users say he looks just like the “grandpa of KFC”.‎ Evans has posted videos of various experiments. His most popular experiments have attracted millions of hits on video-sharing apps. Excited children’s cheers and shouts can be heard in his videos. “I hope my experiments can arouse people’s interest in science,” he says.‎ Evans has been interested in China since childhood. In the early 1970s, before the reform and opening-up, he viewed it as a “country full of mysteries”. He first visited the Chinese mainland in 1987 to attend a chemistry conference in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province. He quit his job in the United Kingdom and moved to Beijing in 1996. Many of his friends thought he was crazy. But Evans says they just saw China’s challenges but not its potential.‎ Since 2011, Evans has turned to the Internet to popularize science. He learned short-video apps are also popular in small cities and rural areas. And he realized this enables him to reach more students, who lack opportunities to perform fun experiments. But even a one-minute video requires a considerable amount of work. Still, he thinks it’s worth it to fulfill his responsibility to popularize science.‎ His experiments always fill schools’ lecture halls with laughter. Some viewers call him “a Harry Potter-like magician”, but he disagrees. “A magician never tells the secrets behind his tricks, but a scientist always gives an explanation.” He sees himself as a teacher. He performs experiments to spread knowledge, inspire thinking, remove misunderstandings and show that science can create change. Evans says he looks forward to more “chemical reactions” with China.‎ ‎27. Who is David Evans according to the passage?‎ A. A manager of KFC. B. A chemistry teacher.‎ C. A film celebrity. D. A British magician.‎ ‎28. What can we learn from the third paragraph?‎ A. Evans considered UK to be a country full of mysteries.‎ B. Evans attended a chemistry conference in China in 1987.‎ C. Evans was unwilling to move to Beijing.‎ D. Evans first visited Chinese mainland in the 1970s.‎ ‎29. Why did Evans begin to post videos of experiments on the Internet?‎ A. To apply short-video apps.‎ B. To rise to fame.‎ C. To popularize science.‎ D. To make a fortune.‎ ‎30. What can we infer from the passage?‎ A. Evans’ friends admired his decision to move to China.‎ B. Evans will continue to post videos of experiments in China.‎ C. Evans’ students like to interrupt his experiments with laughter.‎ D. Evans knows exactly how a magic works.‎ 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。‎ Lemon water is pretty popular. It’s offered as a free upgrade to regular water at pretty many restaurants. 31 , others are devotees（爱好者）of the possible health benefits. Here’s what may happen if you take up the lemon water habit.‎ Easier weight loss Studies in mice indicate that the antioxidants(抗氧化剂) in lemons can reduce weight gain despite a high-fat diet. More studies are needed to determine if the results can be applied to humans, but anecdotal（传闻）evidence is favorable. People who drink lemon water regularly report easier weight loss, though it is unclear if the combination of lemon and water is the fundamental driver. 32 . ‎ Get enough vitamin C Vitamin C is an important antioxidant that has a ton of health benefits. It can only be gotten from food as our bodies don’t produce it alone. Getting your RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) of vitamin C can lower the risk of heart disease, stroke, and high blood pressure. Vitamin C is good for your skin and bonds with free radicals (自由电子) that accelerate aging. 33 , but they’re a great source nevertheless. ‎ Stabilized moods Studies have found that smelling lemon scent reduces stress hormones（激素）that regulate mood. Drinking lemon water offers this benefit as well as the vitamins and potassium(钾) in the fruit. 34 , and high blood pressure is related to stress, so not getting enough potassium can certainly affect your mood. All in all, lemon water can be a calming drink.‎ In the end, drinking water is never a bad call, and there is absolutely no reason not to add lemon to it. Drinking lemon water provides some helpful nutrients（营养）and antioxidants. Give it a try!‎ ‎ 35 .‎ A. Lemon is a common smell in all manner of cleaning products.‎ B. Potassium plays a huge part in regulating blood pressure.‎ C. There is nothing to lose.‎ D. Lemons aren’t the highest in vitamin C.‎ E. While some people drink it simply because of its taste.‎ F. If adding lemon to water can encourage people to drink more.‎ G. It could be that drinking more water helps dieters to feel full and avoid overeating.‎ 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分50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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。‎ A Good Man It’s a late Saturday afternoon in early March, and I am sweating in search of the only gift my son wants from Los Angeles: a   36  to the homes of the stars such as Brad Pitt and Jet Li.‎ A cheerful taxi driver says, “No problem.

But exiting the taxi, I   49  my last chance. I hand him $13 and my business card. Three weeks pass. I’ve   50   on the star map. My son has stopped mentioning it.‎ Then one afternoon, sticking out from under piles of flyers, there it is: a big white envelope. There is a small note. I can hardly read it,   51  I make out a few phrases — “forgive   52  ,” “taxi’s been down” and, finally, “here’s map for your son.” There’s no return address. It’s signed, “kind regards, M.”‎ I hold the note in my hand,   53  what my son said to me when I got back from Los Angeles.‎ ‎“Did you meet any   54  , Dad?” he asked.‎ Now I know what to tell him.‎ ‎“Yes, I did.

Others may do some voluntary work in a nursing house, accompanying the old with songs, dances or other activities. In my opinion, this festival is of great significance because it reminds the young to have a sincere respect for the aged.‎ I hope you have a deeper understanding of Chinese culture after knowing more about the Double Ninth Festival.‎ Looking forward to your early reply.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua
