    British people are famous for drinking tea. But brother and sister, Sarah and Bobby Green, became young millionaires when they opened a chain of American-style coffee shops in the UK.

    Having the idea: It started when Sarah took a weekend trip to New York to visit her brother Bobby. One evening, in a Thai restaurant, Sarah told Bobby how much she wished she could buy American-style coffee in London. Bobby suggested they started their own coffee shop. Sarah fell in love with the idea.

    Doing the Research: Back in London, she spent a whole day on the London subway, getting off the train at different stations to taste the coffee. “It was terrible, and I knew there was a gap (空缺) in the market.” In 1995, they opened their first Coffee Republic shop in central London.

    Making it work: The first year was very difficult. British people were not used to the names of American coffees, like latte and macchiato. But being successful was their dream and they were not going to give up. Today, there are over 100 Coffee Republic shops all over the country and the company has ￡30 million a year.

    Advice for others: Sarah has now written a best-selling book about their experience, called Anyone Can Do It ! She hopes it will help other young people to start their own businesses. She says, “If you think you have the energy, then get out and follow your dream.”

    1. What kind of company do they run?

    A. A fast-food restaurant. B. A tea shop.

    C. A coffee shop. D. A big hotel.

    2.Where is their first Coffee Republic shop?

    A. All over the UK. B. All over the US.

    C. In central London. D. In New York.

    3.Which of the following information is mentioned(提到) in the passage?

    A. Sarah was not interested in Bobby’s idea.

    B. British people never drank coffee before 1995.

    C. Sarah’s best-selling book is about how to make coffee.

    D. Sarah found a business chance while doing the research.

    Everyone must go to bed early and get up early, or we won’t be healthy and clever.

    Is this true? Perhaps it is. The body must have enough sleep. Children of your age need ten hours’ sleep every day. If you don’t go to bed early, you won’t have enough sleep. Then you can’t think properly and can’t do your work properly. You’ll not be clever.

    Some people go to bed late and get up late. This is not good for them. We must sleep at night when is is dark. The dark helps us to sleep soundly. When the daytime comes, we must get up. This is the time for exercise. If you lack exercise, the body becomes weak. Exercise keeps a strong body.

    Exercise helps the blood（血液）flow（流动） around inside the body. This is very important. Blood takes food to all parts of our body. The brain also needs blood. If we keep our body healthy and take exercise, we can think better.

    1.If we want to be healthy and clever, we must go to bed____.

    A. late and get up early B. early and get up late

    C. early and get up early D. late and get up late

    My grandfather is eighty years old. He always complains about how fast things have changed, and he often says that life used to be better.

    Families aren't what they used to be. A lot of families have broken up. If the husband and wife have problems with their marriage, they no longer stay together. And mothers used to stay at home and take care of their children, but now parents are both busy working. No one has time to look after children at home.

    And the cars! No one walks any more. More and more people drive. We used to walk five miles to school on school days, even in winter. But now we don't.

Instead, they use calculators.

    Most families have computers now. In the past we didn't have computers. We didn't even have lights. My mother used to spend all day cooking in the kitchen. But now we don't often eat home cooked food.
