阅读理解。     Started in 1636, Harvard (哈佛) University is the oldest of all the colleges and universities in the
United States. Yale, Princeton, Columbia and Dartmouth were opened soon after Harvard.
     In the early years, these schools were nearly the same. Only young men went to college. All the
students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin and Greek. Little was known about
science. And few people knew that one kind of school could teach everything that was known about
the world. When the students graduated, most of them became ministers or teachers.
     In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later,
lawyers could study in Harvard"s law school. In 1825, besides Latin and Greek, Harvard began to
teach modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began to teach American history.
     As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students
were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them.
     Today, there are many different kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are made up of
smaller schools that deal with special fields of learning. There"s so much to learn that one kind of school
can"t offer all. 1. In the early years, people learned ________ in colleges.   A. science

All around the world, people drink tea. But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries, people have very different ideas about drinking tea. In China, for example, people always drink tea when they are getting together. They drink it at any time of the day at homes or in the teahouses. They prefer plain tea, with nothing else in it. Tea is also important in Japan. The Japanese have a special（特殊）way of serving tea called tea ceremony（茶道）.It is very old and full of meaning. Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony. There is even a special room for it in Japanese homes. Another tea-drinking country is England. In England, the late afternoon is “tea time”. Almost everyone has a cup of tea then. The English usually make tea in a teapot and drink it with milk and sugar. They also eat cakes, cookies and a few sandwiches at tea time. This is the so-called “Afternoon Tea” in Britain. In the United States, people drink tea mostly for breakfast of after meals. Americans usually use tea bags to make their tea. Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapots. In summer, many Americans drink cold tea-“iced tea”. Sometimes they drink canned iced tea, just as soda.
