       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.

閱讀理解

In today’s world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most useful effect(影響) on the poor, but once a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesn’t mean more happiness.

If money was everything, all millionaires(百萬富翁) would have true love, true friendship, good health and a long life. However, this is not always true.

Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words which are “I love you”. But can love be bought? I’m afraid not. Love means to give, not to take. To every person, health and long life are probably the most precious(寶貴的) things. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is “No”.

Of all the longest living people in the world, few of them are millionaires. True friendship can’t be bought either. In a word, where money is worshiped(崇拜), money can cause brothers to quarrel, lovers to hate, strangers to fight and so on.
