You may know that more people drink coffee than tea around the world.And that, after oil, it is the second biggest traded commodity (商品).You may also know that the drink comes from beans which are first roasted and then ground (研磨).But what else do you know about this popular drink?

It is said that the story of coffee started with an Ethiopian goatherd (牧羊人) named Kaldi.One day Kaldi was surprised to see that his goats were behaving very strangely.Instead of grazing (吃草) quietly, they were jumping around, almost dancing.He also noticed some red "cherries" from a plant that the goats were eating.He tried some himself and was surprised by the feeling of extreme happiness and excitement.He felt like dancing too !

But it wasn't used as a drink at first.It was used as food.The coffee berries, mixed with animal fat, were used by monks to stay awake during long hours of prayer.From Ethiopia, coffee was later cultivated (培育) in Yemen and the first hot drink was developed there around AD 1000.Three centuries later Muslims were keen coffee drinkers and as Islam spread, so did coffee.Coffee houses appeared in Cairo and Mecca.

For hundreds of years the plants were protected safely.But some beans were smuggled (偷運(yùn)) out of Arabia and taken to India.In the 17th century, coffee was soon grown in a new continent.From India to Indonesia, a century later the beans were once again smuggled to Brazil.Brazil is now the largest coffee producer in the world.

It was the caffeine that made the goats dance and kept the monks awake.Although it is found in other soft drinks and tea, coffee has the most caffeine.In the short term.a(chǎn) couple of cups of coffee can prevent fatigue and delay sleep.But several cups a day, every day, can cause anxiety and restlessness.

【題目】In one way of thinking, failure is a part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The “spider story” is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider spinning a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times without success. On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone on to defeat the English... Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.

So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?

Second, is the goal you’re trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question, “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?” This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn’t be doing anyway.

The third thing to bear in mind about failure is that it’s a part of life. Learn to “l(fā)ive with yourself” even though you may have failed. Remember, “You can’t win them all.”

1The “spider story” mentioned in the passage is used to show that _________.

A. only failure can lead you to success

B. we can make it if we keep trying

C. failure is always terrible

D. people who fail have the same experience

2The underlined phrase “bear in mind” in the last paragraph means _________.

A. take care B. forget C. recognize D. remember

3The writer tells us to do all the things when dealing with failure except ________.

A. thinking about how it happened

B. believing that we can’t live happily if we fail

C. considering failure as a part of life

D. checking out whether our goals are right for the present situation

4The main idea of this passage is _________.

A. what the value of failure is

B. that Edison and Bruce failed repeatedly before success

C. what failure is and how to deal with failure

D. failure may be considered as a way towards success

Playing is serious business for children.In fact, it's what they do best! Ask them why they do it, and kids will probably say, "Because it's fun!" But it's much more than that.It's also good for them.

Studies show that from birth babies begin learning through playing.They use their five senses to get to know their new world.Touching allows them to discover how different things feel.Brightly coloured toys and clothing help develop a baby's sense of sight (視覺(jué)).When small children choose which toy to play with, they begin developing their abilities in making decisions.

Children love toys that allow them to use their imagination (想象力).Sometimes an empty box is more fun than a high-tech (高科技) toy.That's because a box can become anything to a child.

Crayons, paints and Play-Doh (彩色塑泥) are also good because they allow children to create.Traditional building blocks teach important pre-maths skills.

Playing doesn't become any less important once children start school.Many valuable lessons about life are learned on the school playground.Kids learn how to share, take turns and play by the rules.
