Tea is an important part of Chinese tradition. Tea has very close relationship to Chinese culture.

It is said that Chinese tea was discovered by King Shen Nong. People say that he lived 5,000 years ago. One summer day, while he was visiting a faraway part of his country, he felt very thirsty. The servants began to make water hot enough to turn into gas for him to drink. Dried leaves from a near plant fell into the water. The king drank some, and found it could make him feel less tired. Also as a scientist, Shen Nong was interested in the new drink. And so, tea was created in 2737 BC.

Drinking tea has many advantages. It makes people feel less tired, clears heat inside the human body and helps people lose weight. As you add a cup of tea to your daily life, please check the following helpful advice.

•Drink it hot. Tea oxidizes(氧化) quickly, so it is suggested that you drink it hot.

•Do not drink too much strong tea. It will probably be harmful to your stomach and make you feel sick if you make the tea too strong.

•The best time to drink tea is between meals. It may not make you have a strong wish to eat when your stomach is empty, or cause stomachache when your stomach is full.

•Do not drink with medicine. It may change the medical result. You can drink tea two hours after you take medicine.

•Green tea is the best choice for office workers.Why? Because green tea helps stop the bad result of the computer.

科目:初中英語 來源:上海市崇明縣2015--2016學(xué)年度第一學(xué)期 初三質(zhì)量調(diào)研英語試卷 題型:閱讀理解

A. Choose the best answer (根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容,選擇最恰當(dāng)?shù)拇鸢?:(12分)

Liu Yaxuan is totally a homebody. Every weekend, this14-year-old student from Tsinghua High School watches popular TV dramas like The Journey of Flower(《花千骨》) and plays with her mobile phone. She hates playing outdoor sports. "It's too tiring," she said.

She is not alone. In recent years, more and more Chinese teenagers are becoming homebodies. A 2013 survey of kids aged 2 to 14 showed about half of them spend less than one hour doing outdoor activities every day.

To some extent, heavy academic pressure (學(xué)業(yè)壓力) caused this phenomenon(現(xiàn)象). Hu Huilan, 12, from Shenzhen Nanshan Language School, is busy with piles of homework and extra classes on weekends. "I don't want to get behind," she said.

Even if this isn't a problem, kids still prefer indoor life. Wang Yidi, 12, from Anhui No. 50 Middle School, often reads Harry Potter: listens to music and-surfs the Internet at home. "I can do so many things I like at home rather than hang out in smoggy(霧霾的) weather," she said.

But this causes bad health conditions. Chinese teenagers' physical conditions have been declining (下降) for more than 25 years, reported People's Daily last year.

The situation for foreign students is quite different. Zhang Yingke, 15, from Unionville High School in Toronto, Canada, says her peers are not homebodies at all. "They spend their free time outdoors even if it just means going to the park or reading a book under the tree. Nice weather, little homework and rich outdoor activities enable us to do that," she said. After being there for four years, she has fallen in love with running and playing tennis. "It helps me stay energetic,” she said.
