根据短文内容，从下框的A---F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
A.The spreading tea
B.The history of tea growing
C.Changes of tastes for drinks
D.Reducing cancer risks
E.The plant Camellia sinensis
F.A woman’s opinion of tea
61. _____________________________
Americans are far more knowledgeable about drinks than they were 20 years ago. Witness the Starbucks revolution and you’ll know where the trend goes. Now, encouraged by recent studies suggesting that it can cut the risk of cancer and heart disease and slow the aging process, tea is enjoying a similar change. Enough fashionable tea houses are springing up to make even longtime coffee drinkers consider switching drinks.
62. _____________________________
Tea is available in more places than ever. The Tea Association of the United States reports that from 1990 to 1999, annual sales of the drink grew to $4.6 billion from $1.8 billion. “Green tea is seen by consumers as a ‘functional food’” — delivering health benefits beyond food itself, says Vierhile.
63. _____________________________
Recently published studies point out that only teas that come from the leaves of the plant Camellia sinensis have been shown to contain health benefits. Other herbal teas may taste good, yet they do little more than warm up the drinker. But for Camellia sinensis, the evidence is powerful. In a 1998 study, Harvard University researchers found that drinking one cup of black tea a day lowered the risk of heart attack by as much as 44 percent compared with non-tea drinkers, and other studies have suggested that the antioxidants (抗氧化剂) in these so-called real teas can also prevent cancer.
64. _____________________________
One such antioxidant in green tea is ECGC, a compound 20 times as powerful as vitamin E and 200 times as powerful as vitamin C. “When people ask me for something good and cheap they can do to reduce their cancer risk, I tell them to drink real tea,” says Mitchell Gaynor, director of medical oncology at New York City’s Strang-Cornell Cancer Prevention Center.
65. _____________________________
Among those inspired to become a green-tea drinker is Tess Ghilaga, a New York writer who took it up after seeking advice from a nutritionist six years ago. “I’ve never been a coffee drinker,” says Ghilaga, 33. “She told me to start drinking green tea for the antioxidant qualities.” Now Ghilaga and her husband habitually make tea — they order theirs from InPursuitofTea.com, an Internet tea company. And although tea contains about half the amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee, “you still get such a kick from it,” says Ghilaga. |

Husband:Hi, darling, I"m home．
Wife ： 6 ．
Husband:Well, just as usual．
Wife ： Come on, I"ve known you for years．Your face tells me something has happened．
Husband:Is that so?
Wife ： 7 ．Tell me, what happened?
Husband: Guess!
Wife ： You"re promoted?
Husband： 8 ．
Wife ： You got a raise?
Husband: Right! You deserve a reward． 9 ．
Wife ： Sure．But tell me everything from the very beginning．You didn"t mention anything about this to me．
Husband:I wasn"t expecting a raise myself．I wasn"t even aware that today was payday when I got to work this morning．
Wife ： 10 ．
Husband: No, I think I was the only one．The manager talked to me this morning．He said I had been working quite hard and wanted me to keep up the good work．
Wife ： Congratulations! Now let"s go to celebrate．| A．Did things go well today? | | B．Did other colleagues in your company get a raise, too? | | C．How about eating out tonight? | | D．Yes, you are right． |
E．Your eyes are shining and your mouth is smiling．
F．How did things go in your office today?
G．No, but very close． |
第二节：根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中为每段选出最佳的段落大意。选项中有两项是多余项。（共5小题，每小题2分，共1 0分）| A．Make posters and signs catchy and helpful | | B．Build your network and remind them to vote | | C．Be confident in yourself all the time | | D．Give a great speech with full preparations |
E．What if I don’t win?
F．You can win as long as you try your best
G．Determine your issues and keep your promises
Convincing people to vote for you is probably the scariest part of an election．The best strategy is to show your fellow students that you will do a good job．How do you do this?
61．_________________________________________
Think about why you want to run and what you want to do if you win．These are your issues．Then let people know what you will do if elected．When you do this, be careful not to make promises you can’t keep．Make sure your issues affect all students．If you promise to try to get the whole school painted your favourite color, students probably won’t vote for you．But, if you promise to get rid of that yucky（令人反感的）lunch menu item that no one likes, or raise money for more computers in the library, students will see that you are interested in things they care about, and they’ll vote for you．
62．____________________________________________
Keep it short, simple, and interesting, and students will remember you．Start by writing down your issues and the reasons you think you’re a good person for the job．This is the heart of the speech and will convince other students to vote for you．Start with a story to get people listening and then move on to your issues．Practice your speech so you get used to it, and you won’t be as nervous．Ask your parents or friends to listen a couple of times before the big day．When the time comes to give your speech, relax．You’ll be ready and the other students will notice．
63．_____________________________________________
One of the best ways to get people to vote for you is to talk to them about it．Ask your friends to help．In many elections, people don’t vote at all．If you take the time to talk to them ,and remind them to vote, you’ll increase your chances of winning．Remind them why you’re running, and why they should vote for you．They’ll appreciate that you took the time to talk to them in person．And they’ll probably remember your name on the ballot（选票）!
64．_____________________________________________
When you make your campaign posters, use a catchy slogan that helps other students remember your name．It can help you win votes．If you have trouble coming up with a catchy slogan, try searching the Internet．Don’t depend solely on posters．Your fellow students have to know why you’re running, and that’s why your speech and networking are so important．
65．_______________________________________________
If you keep these things in mind, you can win your election．Just remember that you have to be prepared to work hard to help your fellow students improve your school．
If you don’t win, remember there are always other ways to get involved and make a difference．If students see that you get things done, you could easily win the next time． |

In 1901, H.G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers landed on the moon, 61.他们发现月亮上到处都是地下城市. They expressed their surprise to the “moon people” they met. In turn, the “moon people” expressed their surprise. “Why,” they asked, “are you travelling to outer space when you don’t even use your inner space?”
H.G. Wells could only imagine the travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings did land on the moon. 62. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the “moon people”asked is still an interesting one. 63. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.
Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, 64. 有许多地下购物区. The “Chunnel”, a tunnel connecting England and France, is now completed.
But what about underground cities? Japan’s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of
underground systems, called “Alice Cities”. The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome (太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city.
Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use dying Earth’s space. 65. They say the surface can be used for farms, parks, and gardens. H.G. Wells’ “moon people” would agree. Would you?

There is an English saying, “Laughter is the best medicine.”51 Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. 52 It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
53 In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes. The group that tolerated (忍受)the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. 54
In this way55 they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really fell like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.| A．The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain. | | B．Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. | | C．Laughter and physical exercise have similar effects on the human body. | | D．It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. |
E. As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics.
F. Laughter could produce a kind of chemical.
G. Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. |
