发于神农，闻于鲁周公，兴于唐朝，盛于宋代。
一直以来，中国人对茶，都有着一种难以割舍的情结，上至帝王将相，文人墨客，诸子百家，下至挑夫贩竹，平民百姓，无不以茶为好。
因为泡上一壶浓茶，择雅静之处，自斟自饮，乃人生一大雅事也！那么，炎炎夏日，你我何不泡上一壶沁人心脾的好茶，坐在凉爽的树荫下，吹着习习的凉风，一同来品茶说茶呢？The Chinese people, in their drinking oftea, place much significance on the act of "savoring." "Savoringtea" is not only a way to discern good tea from mediocre tea, but also howpeople take delight in their reverie and in tea-drinking itself. Snatching abit of leisure from a busy schedule, making a kettle of strong tea, securing aserene space, and serving and drinking tea by yourself can help banish fatigueand frustration, improve your thinking ability and inspire you with enthusiasm.You may also imbibe it slowly in small sips to appreciate the subtle allure oftea-drinking, until your spirits soar up and up into a sublime aesthetic realm.Buildings, gardens, ornaments and tea sets are the elements that form theambience for savoring tea. A tranquil, refreshing, comfortable and neat localeis certainly desirable for drinking tea. Chinese gardens are well known in theworld and beautiful Chinese landscapes are too numerous to count. Teahousestucked away in gardens and nestled beside the natural beauty of mountains andrivers are enchanting places of repose for people to rest and recreatethemselves.中国人饮茶，注重一个"品"字。

2012年出版自考《英语二》教材
第一部分：阅读判断1. ［解析］文章第一段中提到了应聘者提出的几个问题：What are my...my hobbies ，由此可以看出他们关注的更多是公司给予的“假期”待遇，而非工作本身带来的经历、价值和成长空间等。
所以题干的说法是正确的。
答案为A。
2. ［解析］第二段第一句就说到Good work…work experie nee,即好的工作态度、习惯和技术来自工作经历而非在学校可以学到。
所以题干说法是错误的。
答案为B。
3. ［解析］第二段第三行讲到I would enter our barnyard…the milking barn，即需要给10至12 只奶牛挤奶，至于说是不是一共有12 头牛，或者父母会帮忙给余下的其他奶牛挤奶，文章并未提及。
答案为C。
4 . ［解析］第二段最后讲到父母每天早晨都会对奶牛问好，Good 's good to seeyou!然后后面提到I did n't feel quite the same way，这说明作者和父母的感受不同，不愿意清早起床挤牛奶。
答案为A。
5. ［解析］第三段最后一句提到It made me...to the road,所以作者是将牛奶捅提到路边等待。
牛奶厂的人来接货，而没提到运到集市去卖。
答案为C。
6. ［解析］第四段首句提到My father and mother...helped me with milking the eows ，即我的父母经常帮我一起挤牛奶，所以题干中说“我经常独自一人挤牛奶”是错误的。
答案为B。
7. ［解析］第四段倒数第二句指出To my father...as it may seem ，即对于父亲来说，挤牛奶看上去并没有那么复杂。
unsophisticated意为不复杂的、简单的，与complicated （复杂的）语义相反。
因此题干说法是错误的。
答案为B。
8. ［解析］第四段第二行指出But Father...needed to be milked,意为奶牛也需要被挤奶，和题干含义吻合。

Dave’s robots are also programmed to copy expressions.How?Just imagine his robot is looking at you.The cameras in its eyes send pictures of your face to its central computer!1．Why do scientists think a robot needs a face?A．It will become more beautiful.B．It can do better in lifting things.C．It will pay more attention to children.D．It can better communicate with people.2．What does the underlined word“creepy”mean in paragraph2?A．Uncomfortable to look at.B．Impossible to touch.C．Boring to talk to.D．Difficult to understand.3．Which of the following would Dave most probably agree with?A．People should treat robots as humans.B．Robots need to express their own feelings.C．Robots shouldn't look too much like humans.D．People can easily accept robots with a human face.4．What is the purpose of the passage?A．To explain the reasons why robots should have faces.B．To suggest what humans can do with robots with faces.C．To share ideas on what kind of faces robots should have.D．To show how scientists invent robots with different faces.【答案】1．D2．A3．D4．C【导语】本文主要介绍两个人对机器人是否要有人形脸持有的不同看法。

At 400 grams （14 ounces ）they will be 17 times heavier than at the 1912 Olympics in Stockholm.每块金牌重400克（14盎司），其重量为1912年斯德哥尔摩奥运会金牌的17倍。
On the other hand, the 1912 games were the last one where gold medals were made entirely of gold.不过，1912年奥运会是最后一届采用纯金打造金牌的奥运会。
Now they consist mainly of silver with a thin coat of gold —6 grams is the minimum requirement.现在的金牌主要成分是银，只在表面镀一层不少于6克重的纯金。
The London medal will have a gold content of only about 1.5%， andat current prices will be worth $706.本届伦敦奥运会的金牌含金量仅为1.5%，折合现在的金价约为706美元（约合人民币4250元）。
Calculations by The Economist find that this is much more than the "podium value" of any previous gold medal(based onestimates of the composition of medals and bullion prices at thetime, adjusted for inflation). This is partly because gold and silver pricesare now historically high and partly because this year's medal is so muchheavier, even though the extra weight is silver rather than gold.根据《经济学人》杂志的计算，伦敦奥运金牌的价值将超过以往任何一届的金牌价值（根据当时的金牌成分和价值估算，并考虑了通货膨胀的因素），因为现在的金银价格都达到了历史最高点，即使多出来的重量是白银而不是更贵的黄金。
For the first time, the silver in this year's "gold" medal is actually worth more than its gold content.More over, if the metal content of earlier medals is valued at today’s bullion prices, the London gold is worth only just over half of those handed out in1912.本届伦敦奥运会金牌中的白银价值首次超过了其中黄金的价值，而且如果把之前金牌含金量的价值按照现在的牌价计算的话，伦敦奥运会金牌的价值仅比1912年奥运会的一半多一点而已。
（1）A: Once every four years,the GREatest athletes from all over the world gather together to take part inthe Olympic Games.A: 每隔四年，世界上最优秀的运动员都从四面八方汇集到一起参加奥林匹克盛会。

A: Besides, each of them has to over comeparticular difficulties on their way to success.A: 除此之外，他们中的每一个人还不得不在他们成功的道路上克服许多困难。
B: Yes. Behind success are tears and sweats.B: 对。
