Tea began to be known by the world over a thousand years ago and has been an important Chinese export since then. Tea has a history of over 4,000 years and China is the home of tea. In ancient China, tea was used as a kind of medicine, while today people drink tea every day.

Longjing, Puer, Wulong and Tieguanyin are all famous tea. Thanks to the weather and rich soil in Fujian, Zhejiang and Yunnan, tea is mainly produced in these provinces.

The word for tea in different languages came from Chinese, like “cha’i” in Russian. And the Japanese character for tea is written exactly the same as it is in Chinese.

Over the past centuries, Chinese people have developed their tea culture, includes tea planting, tea leaf picking, tea drinking and so on. Tea is also popular in some old sayings, like “A friendship between gentlemen is like a cup of tea”.

25、On the football field, the strikers who make the goals win the loudest applause （掌声）.

Some think they are the only heroes that can get the top awards.

The Italian footballer Fabio Cannavaro has proved this view wrong. He shows that every player in a match counts. He did this by winning the FIFA Player of the Year award on December 18.

The 33-year-old Cannavaro once helped Italy to get its fourth World Cup title. This time, he competed with two strikers Zine Zidane and Rinaldinho. He finally beat them. A lot of people said this award should have gone to a striker. But Cannavaro has again beaten this view.

Cannavaro learned to play football in a town of Naples, Italy. Later, he became a ball boy at the city’s stadium. That was before he entered the Series A game in his country.

While the Italian football clubs were criticized （批评） because of scandals （流言）, he set a role model by trying his best to do well in every match. It has encouraged other players and given hope to the country’s football spirit.

Cannavaro stands out most for his leadership. As captain of Italy at the World Cup, he knew how to bring out the country’s defensive tradition. A lot of top defenders were born in Italy.

26、   How do you eat potatoes? Potato chips and potato stewed with beef are popular choices. But can you imagine that in the future potatoes will be served as a staple food on your table?

Potatoes are becoming China’s fourth staple food after rice, wheat and corn, according to the Ministry of Agriculture in January.

This is a welcome move to make Chinese people’s staple food more balanced and diversified (多样化).

But why is potato the choice?

Potatoes are healthy and nutritious. They are a good source of vitamin C and potassium (钾). A potato’s vitamin C is as rich as 10 apples. What’s more, potatoes are low in calories, only three fourths of the same amount of wheat and corn. So if you are worried about your weight, you can try changing to potatoes.

Also, potatoes are easy to grow. They can be grown in the north and south during winter, spring and autumn. The plant is also able to bear drought. With China facing water shortages, potatoes can become a safe and reliable food.

And some products made of potatoes can be stored longer than other staple foods. Flour that is made of potato can be stored for as-long as 15 to 20 years, according to Beijing Times.

With these advantages, the potato has long been a popular staple food in many Western countries such as the US and UK. They can be made into different foods including bread, cookies and pancakes.

While here in China, because of Chinese eating habits, the potato will be cooked differently. It will be made into noodles, steamed bread (馒头) and other staple foods similar to those made of rice or wheat.

So are you ready to have potato noodles or steamed bread for your next meal?

【1】From the last sentence of the first paragraph we can infer that________.

A．Chinese people will have fewer staple foods

B．Chinese people like to accept potatoes as one of the staple foods

C．potatoes will become the staple food instead of rice, wheat and corn

D．potatoes chips and potato stewed with beef will make Chinese people’s staple food more balanced

【2】Potatoes are made into________ in Western countries.

A．noodles

B．steamed bread

C．pancakes

D．pizza

【3】Which of the following is NOT a reason why potatoes are chosen as a staple food?

A．They can be grown in drought areas.

B．They are rich in vitamin C and low in calories.

C．They can be made into flour and stored for a long time.

D．They can feed more people than other food of the same amount.

27、How do you deal with plastic(塑料) bags from the supermarket? Throw them away or reuse them? How about eating them?

       Envi Green in India has made a bag with natural ingredients(成分). It looks and feels just like plastic, but can be broken down. The bags bring no harm to the environment. Both humans and animals can safely eat them. Envi Green founder(创始人) Ashwath Hedge spent four years trying out such a thing of 12 natural ingredients(原料). They include potatoes, corn, vegetable oil and bananas. He made the ingredients into liquid(液体) and used the liquid to make the bag.

       Although the Envi Green bags are much more expensive than those usual plastic bags, they are good for our environment. Usually, it takes 1, 000 years for usual plastic bags to break down. But an Envi Green bag can be naturally broken down in less than 180 days. It can also be broken down in less than a day in water, and in about 15 seconds in boiling water. Maybe the Envi Green bag could be a way to the world problem of plastic pollution.

A．a kind of Indian food

My “perfect holiday”

Henry was a bus driver in a big city and he worked very hard. 【1】. He usually went to the seaside, but one year he saw an advertisement in a newspaper. “Enjoy country life. Spend a few weeks at West Hill Farm. Good food. Fresh air. Horse riding. Walking. Camping. Cheap and interesting.”

to stay for dinner!”
