And when people in Vienna talk about music, they talk about it over a cup of coffee--another important part of V iennese culture.In 1683, a Polish man saved Vienna from the Turkish army. To thank him, the V iennese offered their hero a choice of anything. Ignoring (对…不理)the gold, he chose three hundred bags of strange dry beans. Nobody else wanted them, but he knew what they were--coffee beans. With these beans, he opened the first coffee house in Vienna.Since the V iennese liked tea at that time, the clever Polish man added cream and sugar to improve the taste of coffee. Quickly, this new smooth-tasting coffee became the "in" drink. Perhaps that's just a legend (传说),but every V iennese learns it at school. Many coffee houses even say that they are the one that the Polish man first opened.Nowadays, Viennese coffee houses are meeting places for artists, as well as for you, the tourist.

Everyone on Earth should care about and protect the earth!The earth has warmed by about 1°F （华氏度） over the past 100 years, but why and how? Well, scientists are not quite sure. Maybe the earth gets warmer and warmer on its own. But many scientists say that people are doing many things which makes the earth warmer. First, greenhouse effect （温室效应） is a very important reason for the change of the earth. People give out too much energy into the air every year. It makes the earth warmer. Climate （气候）change is another important reason. Sometimes it becomes too hot and sometimes too cold. Sometimes there is too much rain and sometimes too little. The change of the climate makes the earth warmer. In turn, the warmth of the earth changes the climate, too.When the earth becomes warmer, there may be more rain and a rise in sea level. It will affect the growth of plants, animals and people. On a Pacific island, 100 people have to move to higher ground because the sea is rising. These people can no longer live on the coast. Before that, two islands without people went underwater in 1999. Scientists say that the seas can rise by nearly one meter by 2100.People can affect the earth's air, land and water. As for us, we can do many things to protect the earth. For example, we can use fridges less. We can tell more people about protecting the earth.（1）Earth Day is probably set for people to ______.A. learn more about the earthB. make full use of the earthC. take better care of the earth.D. study the warmth of the earth（2）Greenhouse effect comes from______.A. sea risingB. climate changeC. nature's unbalanceD. people's activity （3）According to the passage, _______ many affect each other.A. animals and islandB. climate and the warmth of the earthC. fridges and animalsD. sea level and the growth of plants（4）We can infer （推断） from the passage that the reasons for the warmer earth are______ now.A. not very clearB. completely secretC. well knownD. not given yet （5）The passage mainly tells us that ______.A. there is more rain nowB. we should protect the earthC. we must stop pollutionD. sea level is getting higher【答案】（1）C（2）D（3）B（4）A（5）B【解析】【分析】这篇短文中作者主要分析了地球变暖的原因，并号召我们行动起来保护（1）推理题。

Sara answered in a low voice."Really? And what are the rules?" her mother asked in surprise."Well, only very pretty girls can be part of our group. And Ada is so...you know...dark.""I can't believe it." her mother said angrily.As Sara left the kitchen, her father called her from the living room. Sara went to her father and got nervous when she saw the exam report in his hands."Sara, what has happened to your grades? You have failed in math." her father said.Sara had no answer. The truth was that the activities of Purple Girls Club left her with very little time for studies."Sara, it says that you can take part in supplementary exams. If your grades don't improve then, I'll cancel your trip to Spain in the coming holiday."Sara went to her room and called Gina, the leader of Purple Girls Club."Gina, can you help me to complete my notes before the exams?"Gina just said, "Exams? Who cares about exams?"One by one, she called all her friends in the club but no one seemed to care or wanted to help her. Then Sara thought of Ada. She knew Ada would help her. She also knew Ada had been hurt by her, but Ada said, "If you need any help, just let me know. We can study together till your exams."Next Monday, as the two friends entered the school together, Gina called out, "Sara, you know our club rules.

What's more, the club members don’t care about study and exams.【解析】【分析】大意：文章主要介绍了Sara参加了一个紫色女子俱乐部，这个俱乐部只接受漂亮的女孩子，因此Sara不再跟Ada做朋友，但是俱乐部还使得Sara没时间学习且俱乐部里没有人愿意帮助Sara，最后她决定退出这个俱乐部的故事。
