Football is, I suppose, the most popular games in England. One had only to go to one of the important 31 to see this. One can see kinds of people there, shouting and 32 for one side or the other.
One of the most 33 thing about football in England to a stranger is the __34__ knowledge of the game which even the 35 seems to have. He can tell you the names of the players in 36 of the important teams. He 37 photos of them and knows the result of large numbers of matches. He will tell you 38 he expects will win such and such a match,
39 his opinion is usually as 40 as that of men three or four times his 41 .
Most schools in England take 42 seriously—much more seriously than nearly all the schools in other countries, 43 lessons are all important and games are left for one’s own arrangements（安排）. In England, it is believed that 44 is not only a matter of filling a boy’s mind with facts in the 45 ; it also means character training; and one of the 46 ways of training character is by means of games, 47 team games, where the boy has to learn to 48 with others for his team, instead of working just for himself alone. The school therefore arranges games and matches for its 49 . Football is a good team game and it is good exercise for 50 .

Last year was the year of the travel deal, with resorts and
airlines practically begging for bookings, and many travelers
finding bargain airfares and hotel rooms as a result．Now the
economy looks as if it might be on a slight rebound．So now is
the perfect time to review your booking strategy（策略）．
Here are 4 simple steps you can take to help cut your travel costs in 2010．
1．Find the Cheapest Dates to Fly
ITASoftware．com, which provides the technological backbone for many airfare shopping sites, allows users to scan an entire month"s fares for the least expensive rate．（Log in as a "guest" and click on "month-long search．"） In January, the 28th and 30th were the cheapest dates to fly nonstop to London from New York （$536） for a week"s vacation, according to a recent search．The next best was Saturday, Jan．23, at $640．To book the ticket, users must go to another site．Kayak．com has a flexible-dates option （registration is required）and a calendar that shows the best fares found by other Kayak users in the last 48 hours．Bing Travel, the Microsoft search engine, offers a similar option, found under "plan trips," about halfway down the page．
2．Consider Nearby Airports
A recent Web search showed nonstop flights from Los Angeles International Airport to Miami International from $299 round trip on American in early January．But flying into Fort Lauderdale, roughly 30 miles north of Miami, was $219 on Virgin America, an $80 saving．
3．Go Against the Grain
If possible, avoid popular travel dates like holidays and spring break because airlines have begun to charge anywhere from $10 to $30 extra at those times．Farecompare．com offers a handy breakdown of the new fees by date, airline and amount．Early-morning and late-night flights may also be cheaper depending on the route．
4．Make Yourself at Home
For a 6 to 12 percent booking fee, AirBnB/com connects budget travelers with locals who are offering a place to bed down．The Times"s Frugal Traveler, Matt Gross, described it as "a cross between CouchSurfing．com and the vacation rentals section of Craigslist．" There were more than 2,000 listings in a recent search for New York including a futon （床垫） in a one-bedroom near Gramercy Park （$65） and a bedroom with private bath and separate entrance in Hell"s Kitchen （$150）．
65．According to the first paragraph, ____．
A．the economy in 2010 is surely getting better
B．2009 saw a sharp decrease in travel fees
C．the booking strategies can be put away in 2010
D．in 2009, airlines begged the travelers to buy more travel guides
66．If you want to book a ticket, you may log on to _____．
A．ITASoftware．com B．CouchSurfing．com
C．AirBnB．com D．Kayak．com
67．What does "Go Against the Grain" probably mean in the passage?
A．Going travelling in the off-season．
B．Going travelling without taking any grain．
C．Going travelling during holidays and spring break．
D．Going travelling without meals served on early-morning and late-night flights．
68．The passage is most probably taken from ____．
A．a book review B．a magazine
C．a website D．a story book
Compared to adults, children seem to be moving constantly．So it"s no surprise that most parents who are quizzed about their child"s physical activity level describe their children as fairly active．But a new study of nearly 2,000 British school children suggests that many parents overestimate the amount of physical activity their children are really getting．
The researchers equipped 1,892 British school children, ages 9 and 10, with accelerometers that measure all physical activity during a given time period．The research, known as the Speedy study collected the exercise data from children at 92 schools in Norfolk, England, between April and July 2007．
A child was regarded inactive if he or she recorded less than an hour a day of physical activity．Although the majority of children studied were getting enough physical activity, a sizable minority of children were not．Overall, 39 percent of girls and 18 percent of boys studied were getting less than an hour of physical activity each day．
But if you asked the parents of the inactive children to describe their child"s activity level, the vast majority—80 percent—described their children as fairly or very physically active, according to the findings published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine．Interestingly, the children themselves had more awareness about their lack of physical activity．Overall, 40 percent of children overestimated their physical activity．
But it wasn"t the parents of overweight children who were most likely to guess wrong about physical activity levels．The parents who were most out of touch about their child"s physical fitness were more likely to have children who were slim．Parents of girls were also more likely to overestimate physical activity．The researchers noted that parents should be educated about the importance of physical activity for children even if the child is not overweight．
"Parents of slim children appear to assume that their children are adequately active," the study authors reported．"Increasing awareness regarding health benefits of physical activity beyond weight control might help have a correct idea of physical activity levels and encourage behavior change．"
69．According to the Speedy study, what kind of children can be judged physically inactive?
A．Slim children．
B．Children with less than an hour a day of physical activity．
C．Overweight children．
D．Children out of touch with their parents for a long time．
70．What does the writer probably mean by saying "a sizable minority of children were not" in Paragraph 3?
A．The amount of children"s physical activity is far from the writer"s satisfaction．
B．Only a small number of children were not getting enough physical activity．
C．A small number of children didn"t overestimate their physical activity．
D．The minority of children were not studied at all．
71．The passage is intended to ____．
A．encourage parents to fairly judge their child"s physical activity levels
B．persuade parents to keep an eye on their children"s weight
C．urge children to wear accelerometers during exercise
D．advise parents to keep in touch with their children
Experts say that agriculture provides fourteen percent of the world"s greenhouse gas emissions each year．The gases released include carbon dioxide, a major cause of global warming．
Twenty-one nations around the world recently joined forces to better understand and prevent greenhouse gas emissions from farms．The Global Research Alliance on Agricultural Greenhouse Gases was launched at the United Nations conference on climate change．The meeting took place in Copenhagen, Denmark last month．
Agricultural experts blame a number of farm activities for producing greenhouse gases．For example, animal waste and cattle digestive systems release methane （甲烷，沼气） gas．Fertilized soil and the burning of crop waste also release harmful gases into the air．Experts say some methods of farming ?turning the soil to prepare for planting ?also release harmful carbon dioxide．
An official of the European Commission"s Directorate General for Research says agricultural greenhouse gas emissions can be cut．Maive Rute suggests feeding animals a diet designed to reduce emissions．
The new agricultural research group says protecting against global warming is only part of its purpose．It says the world also needs to develop better farming methods to feed growing populations in poor countries．
United States Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said no one single nation can fight agricultural greenhouse gas emissions and increase food production at the same time．This is why the alliance is important for combining resources and finding new ones．
The United States Department of Agriculture will increase spending on farm emissions research by ninety million dollars over the next four years．The total will reach one hundred thirty million dollars．The U．S．D．A．will share the research with other countries in the Global Research Alliance on Agricultural Greenhouse Gases and support researchers from developing countries that belong to the alliance．Money from the Borlaug Fellowship program will let the researchers study agricultural climate change with American scientists．
Mister Vilsack said that just as climate change has no borders, there should be no borders for research．
72．In Paragraph 4, Maive Rute recommends _____．
A．increasing food production
B．changing cattle digestive systems
C．developing better fanning methods
D．giving animals the food meant to produce fewer emissions
73．The underlined word "alliance" in Paragraph 6 probably means _____．
A．Action or state being joined together
B．An agreement signed between countries
C．A program or project set up for a research
D．An organization formed for different goals
74．How much has the U．S．D．A．spent on farm emissions research so far?
A．130 million dollars． B．220 million dollars．
C．40 million dollars． D．90 million dollars．
75．The purpose of the passage is to ____．
A．suggest a total ban on farm activities
B．introduce Copenhagen conference held last month
C．appeal to more countries to cut agricultural emissions
D．inform readers of the major cause of global warming
In ancient China tea was probably used as a relish(开胃小菜) and as a medicine. Tea was first brewed(煮泡) 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 cultivation(种植)，spread during the Tang Dynasty, 618-907, especially after a Buddhist monk(佛教僧侣), wrote a book on the virtues of tea, Cha 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 sugar was imported to Great Britain. By 1700, it had increased to 10,000 tons of sugar. In 1768 the East India Company imported 10 million pounds of tea to Britain.
1. Tea has been used as a medicine in China for _________.
A. about 8,000 years B. about 4,700 years
C. about 2,200 years D. about 2,700 years
2. Tea began to 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
3. 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. may be the biggest imported country of tea in Europe even today
4. What is the text mainly about?
A. The history of tea B. How tea was introduced to other countries
C. China is the home of tea D. The importance of tea
