22、It may be hard to believe, but the American Revolution (革命)—the war that freed the American states from British control—began over a cup of tea. Tea was not the only thing that caused the war, of course, but it played a very big part.

The British people’s love of tea is well-known. When the British won control over much of North America in the early 1700s, they brought their tea-drinking habits with them. Tea quickly became the continent’s most popular drink. As tea could not be grown locally, just as in Britain, it was shipped into the country—mostly from India.

In the early 1700s, the Britain government made a special deal with the East India Company, an English trading company. They agreed that no other company was allowed to bring tea to Britain or any country controlled by Britain, including America. It was a great deal for the East India Company, since it meant that the company could decide whatever price it wanted for its products. And it always decided on a high price!

In North America, the local people did not like having to pay such high prices. Instead of overpaying for tea from the British, they turned to Dutch traders, who secretly brought tea to the country that was just as good—and much less expensive. Although this broke the law, the American people didn’t care. They got the same cup of tea at a much lower price.

The East India Company, however, didn’t like this at all. By the 1760s, they were losing millions of pounds each year to Dutch traders—a huge amount of money in a time when £60 a year was considered a good income. Instead of reducing their prices to compete with the Dutch, the company asked the British government for help and the government agreed.

In 1767, the British introduced new laws that increased the prices of all goods which were brought into America. These laws helped make the East India Company even richer and forced local people to pay much more for everything. The American leaders asked the British government not to do so, but the British refused to listen. These unfair laws increased Americans’ anger about British rule and the rest, as they say, is history.

【1】The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________.

A．the tea maker

B．the American government

C．the British government

D．the East India Company

【2】Why did many Americans begin to buy tea from the Dutch traders?

A．The tea was much cheaper.

B．The tea was a lot healthier.

C．They could buy it more easily.

D．They didn’t want to support the British.

【3】What did the East India Company do to stop losing money?

A．It reduced the price of its tea.

B．It improved the taste of its tea.

C．It introduced a new kind of tea.

D．It asked the British government for help.

【4】What is the passage mainly about?

A．Tea trade in eighteenth-century America

B．The relationship between America and Britain.

C．A reason for the start of the American Revolutionary War.

D．The introduction of British tea-drinking habits into America.

In the world today, all of the people need to have fun when they are free. We can't work all the time if we are going to keep healthy and enjoy life.

Everyone has his own way of relaxing. Perhaps the most popular form（形式）is to take part in sports. There are team sports, such as basketball and football.

24、根据短文内容及首字母提示, 填写所缺单词。

I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise (乌龟). At the end I said, “Son, remember: Be slow and steady (镇定的), and that will w【1】 the race. Don’t you think there’s s【2】 to learn from the tortoise?”

Sonny opened his eyes w【3】, “Do you mean next time when I am entering for the 60-meter race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall a【4】 halfway?”

I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”

“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare?

He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he h【5】 did.”

He didn’t have such a w【6】,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (坚忍不拔的), by pushing on steadily.”

Sonny thought for a while.” That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it b【7】 he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fail asleep, the tortoise would n【8】 have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for s【9】.”

I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we were in the past. They are just h【10】. It seems that it’s not easy for them to see hopes in the real life.
