It was a perfect day to be out on the water. My father thought that we could all deal with a new situation, so he decided to bring us to go without a guide at this new, hard course. My mom and I were upset by my dad’s decision, but my brother was pleased with it. We got life jackets, our raft andpaddles that are used to row it, and then took a bus to the drop point where we carried the raft to the icy cold water. Having finished the training, we were on our own.Within the first hour, we got stuck on two rocks. Another raft had to hit ours to get us off the rocks. After about two hours, we saw a huge rock on the right side of the river. It was coming out of the water about ten feet high and about fifteen feet wide. Somehow, we ended up on top of this rock. After about a minute, water started rushing in where my brother was sitting. When he started falling into the water, I tried to pull him back. Unfortunately, we fell off together. My mother jumped in after us, but she could only get to my brother because he was closer than I was. My dad jumped out and ran up the bank of the river to get to the road, so he could see where I was. Little to his knowledge, I was picked up after about two minutes by a stranger in another raft and was heading down the river toward a little resting spot. I kept crying because I was so frightened and worried about my family. Thankfully, everyone was fine, just a little shaken up and very cold.When we got back in our raft, we had only two paddles for four people. We all knew that it was going to take a very long time to get to the end. One of the guides for another raft told us that there was an earlier place we could get out, but we would have to carry our raft about a quarter of a mile. At that point, no one really cared if we had to do anything after we got out of the water. We finally got to the ending point. We got out of the water, wet and cold.To this day, I have never been so cold in my life. I have not been rafting again because of this terrible experience. All of this happened because my dad did not hire a guide.16. How did the writer feel about his father’s decision?A. Worried.B. Excited.C. Surprised.D. Pleased.17. After falling into the river, the writer was saved by ___________.A. his fatherB. his motherC. a strangerD. a guide18. We can infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 that the writer and his family ___________.A. felt so tired that they wouldn’t want to carry the raftB. wanted to get out of the water as soon as possibleC. were so careless that they noticed nothingD. were too frightened to do anything19. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Difficulties in finding a rafting guide.B. One’s attitudes towards rafting.C. A family’s rafting experience.D. An introduction to rafting.CThere was a time in the 1960’s and 1970’s when some people believed that coffee would replace tea as Britain’s favourite drink, but that did not happen, and today, tea remains Britain’s favourite drink.To say that the British are fond of tea is something of an understatement. From the Royal(皇室的) Family down to the homeless and the out-of-work, tea is more than just a pleasure. It is an important part of life!The popularity of tea in the United Kingdom has a long history. It was in 1657 that Thomas Garway, the owner of a coffee house, sold the first tea in London. The drink soon became popular as another choice besides coffee.In those days, however, tea was not something for anyone. For a century and a half, it remained an expensive drink. Many bosses served a cup of it to their workers in the middle of the morning, thus inventing a lasting British institution, the “tea break”. But as a social drink outside the workplace, tea was served for the nobility(贵族) and for the growing middle classes. Among those who had the money for tea, it became very popular as a drink to be enjoyed in cafés and “tea gardens”.It was the 7th Duchess of Bedford who, in around 1800, started the popular “afternoon tea”, which took place at about four o’clock. At about the same time, the Earl of Sandwich popularised a new way of eating bread with something (e. g. jam) between them, and before long, a small meal at the end of the afternoon with tea and sandwiches had become part of a way of life.As tea became much cheaper during the nineteenth century, its popularity spread right through British society. In working-class households, it was served with the main meal of the day, eaten when workers returned home after a day’s labour. This meal has become known as “high tea”.Today, tea can be drunk at any time of day. Most people in Britain drink tea for breakfast. Themid-morning “tea break” is an institution in British offices and ter in the day, “afternoon tea” is still a way of life in the south of England and among the middle classes, while “high tea” has remained a tradition in the north of Britain.20. Who played an important part in the beginning of tea time in England?A. Thomas Garway.B. The Royal Family.C. The Earl of Sandwich.D. The Duchess of Bedford.21. What does the underlined word “institution” mean in Paragraph 4?A. drinkB. workplaceC. traditionD. order22. What can we learn from the passage?A. The “tea break” kept the workers from being sleepy after lunch.B. Workers could enjoy a cup of tea in “tea gardens” at their work place.C. “High tea” was usually served with the main meal for the middle classes.D. The “afternoon tea” together with sandwiches became popular in around 1800.23. What is the best title of the passage?A. The Popularity of TeaB. Tea and the BritishC. Tea and the Middle ClassD. The History of Tea三、语言知识运用第一节（共20小题；每小题1分，共20分）阅读下面短文，请从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
