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 mon 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 unmon 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 es around。 it39。s sure to bee fashionable again.（1）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.（2）What can we infer from the fourth paragraph? A.Tea sales fell by 6% in 2014 alone.B.Since 2002, the sales of tea has been on the decrease.C.In 2013, the money spent on tea was ￡3 billion.D.Most restaurant like selling tea than coffee.（3）What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph? A.It can never succeed again.B.The tea can bee popular again.C.Coffee is more popular than tea.D.The tea is being less popular.（4）What is the author39。s purpose in writing the text? A.To introduce tea in the UK.B.To show the author39。s preference for tea.C.To introduce the functions of tea.D.To pare tea in China and UK.【答案】 （1）D（2）B（3）B（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了茶葉備受英國人的喜愛以及目前的現(xiàn)狀。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“While many countries love their tea, UK citizens are particularly proud of being ‘tea people’.”可知，盡管很多國家都喜歡他們自己的茶，但是英國人作為“tea people”而感到非常地自豪。故選D。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“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.”可知，從2002年開始茶葉的銷量已經(jīng)開始逐漸下降，故選B。 （3）考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Still, what goes around es around。 it39。s sure to bee fashionable again.”可知，下劃線后面是分號，分號在句子中的功能相當于同義句改寫，確定的是茶葉能夠再次流行起來。故選B。 （4）考查推理判斷。通過全文內(nèi)容可知，作者寫這篇文章的目的就是為了介紹茶在英國的情況，故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇文化類閱讀，考生需要準確捕捉細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。9．閱讀理解 Back in 2009, China was wrongly accused by the West of controlling the Copenhagen talks on climate change.
