I had my arms full of books and I was tearing into the classroom when I ran into
26、 something solid. It was Carlos. “My, youre tall,” he said. Of course, the class began to laugh. Angry, I walked to my seat without a word. I glanced back to see if Reed Harrington was laughing with the rest. That would be the last straw. But Reed was studying chemistry and did not seem to be aware
27、of anything else. I didnt know why I considered Reed my friend. Maybe just because he was a good two inches taller than I. Anyway, every time I blew out my birthday candles and made a wish, it was for a date with Reed Harrington. “Take that seat,” Mr. McCarthy told the proud newcomer Carlos, pointin
28、g to the only empty one, in the back of the room. Carlos smiled broadly. “But I need a couple of dictionaries.” Again the class laughed, but now they were laughing with Carlos, not at him. He had been here only 10 minutes and already he had them on his side. It was the school elections that made me
29、think of Carlos again. Reed Harrington was voted president and Carlos vice president. “How come ” I kept asking myself. “How come this shrimp(虾 ) whos only been in town for a little over a month gets to be so popular.” So on that morning, I stopped Carlos and said, “It doesnt seem to bother youbeing
30、 short.” He looked up at me. “Of course I mind being short. But there isnt anything I can do about it. When I realized I was going to have to spend my life in this undersized skin, I just decided to make the best of it and concentrate on being myself.” “You seem to get along great,” I admitted. “But
31、 what about me Nobody wants to date a girl taller than he is.” “The trouble with you is youre afraid to be yourself. Youre smart. And you could be pretty. In fact, you might be more than pretty.” I felt myself turning red. 【小题 1】 Which of the following is true according to the passage A The writer c

34、lpful classmates. D A change in my life. 答案： 【小题 1】 A 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 D Coffee has a history dating back to at least the 9th century and has been a catalyst for social interaction across cultures and eras. Originally discovered in Ethiopia, coffee beans were brought into the Middle East by
35、Arab traders, spreading to Egypt, Yemen, Persia, Turkey, and North Africa by the 15th century. Muslim merchants eventually brought the beans to the thriving port city of Venice, where they sold them to wealthy Italian buyers. Soon, the Dutch began importing and growing coffee in places like Java and
36、 Ceylon (largely through slave labor), and the British East India Trading Company was popularizing the beverage in England. Coffee spread across Europe and even reached America. Where there has been coffee, there has been the coffeehouse. From the 15th century Middle Eastern establishments where men
37、 gathered to listen to music, play chess, and hear recitations from works of literature, to Paris Cafe le Procope where luminaries of the French Enlightenment such as Voltaire, Rousseau, and Diderot came to enjoy a hot cup of joe, coffeehouses have traditionally served as centers of social interacti
38、on, places where people can come to relax, chat, and exchange ideas. The modern coffee shop is modeled on the espresso and pastry-centered Italian coffeehouses that arose with the establishment of Italian-American immigrant communities in major US cities such as New York Citys Little Italy and Green
39、wich Village, Bostons North End, and San Franciscos North Beach. New York coffee shops were often frequented by the Beats in the 1950s. It wasnt long before Seattle and other parts of the Pacific Northwest were developing coffee shops as part of a thriving counterculture scene. The Seattle-based Sta
40、rbucks took this model and brought it into mainstream culture. Although coffeehouses today continue to serve their traditional purpose as lively social hubs in many communities, they have noticeably adapted to the times. Rediscovering their purpose as centers of information exchange and communicatio
41、n, many coffee shops now provide their customers with internet access and newspapers. It has become extremely common to see someone sitting at a Starbucks listening to music or surfing the web on his or her laptop. Coffee stores today also maintain a fairly identifiable, yet unique aesthetic: wooden
42、 furniture and plush couches, paintings and murals drawn on walls, and soft-lighting combine to give coffee shops the cozy feeling of a home away from home. Today, big business retail coffee shops are expanding quickly all over the world. Starbucks alone has stores in over 40 countries and plans to
43、add more. Despite its popularity, Starbucks has been criticized and labeled by many as a blood-sucking corporate machine, driving smaller coffee shops out of business through unfair practices. This has even spawned an anti-corporate coffee counterculture, with those subscribing to this culture boyco
44、tting big business coffee chains. Increasingly popular coffee stores such as The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf are also giving Starbucks some stiff competition. In any case, it seems pretty clear that coffee has weaved itself into the fabric of our consumer-oriented culture. 【小题 1】 Which of the following
45、 is the correct order of coffee spreading in history Egypt America the Middle East Netherlands Venice A B C D 【小题 2】 We can infer from the passage _.
