I have recently been diagnosed with an addiction-to coffee. And I am not alone. This is a problem among Americans of all ages. The coffee shop has become a social feature in our culture. Its appealing smell, cozy and inviting atmosphere are difficult to resist, especially if you struggle with an addiction like alcohol.
But, when you look past the leather couches and coffees named after European cities, all you'll find is coffee, milk, and a little sugar. Anyone can buy a Coffeemaker and a container of Coffee Mate and try to create the same drink as a coffee shop does. The only difference between your homemade coffee and coffee shops is that they put it in a cute cup and throw on some whipped (泡沫状的) cream to convince us that we are treating ourselves to a worthy relief from the fast pace of everyday life. And we believe them, silly for the idea that drinking their coffee improves our quality of life.
So, next time this "white chocolate" begins echoing in your mind, you'll have to make a decision: Will you continue to be one of the millions of brainwashed Americans who live for their next trip to a coffee shop, or will you just walk away and ignore it? My advice is -- dare to resist and just say no.
61. The major features of a coffee shop are the following EXCEPT its _______.
A. attractive smell B. comfortable surrounding
C. pleasant atmosphere D. alcohol-like addiction
62. The coffee from coffee shops differs from homemade coffee mainly because it _______.
A. is mixed with whipped cream B. is usually served in a cute cup
C. offers a feeling of precious relief D. can improve the quality of life
63. "White chocolate" in the last paragraph probably means _______.
A. coffee with cream B. chocolate with coffee
C. brainwashed Americans D. addiction to shop coffee
64. The author's attitude towards "white chocolate" is _______.
A. positive B. uncaring C. negative D. optimistic

Phone producers show us every year some really superb concept phones and even if 99% of those phones never see the production line, they give us a small glimpse(一瞥)of what the phones will look like in the near future.
We’ve made a list of what we think are the coolest concept phones presented in 2010. But don’t ask us where you can get them and what the prices are.
1.LG Flutter Concept Smart-phone
The LG Flutter has a face like the iPhone.
The only difference is that the LG Flutter looks more like a fan or a killer’s tool which we see in sci-fi movies.
In spite of this, this design does seem fit for the future of mobile phones but looks a bit difficult to use.
2.Nokia 888 Communicator
The phone has an amazing design. You can fold it in many ways according to your needs. You can wear it as a bracelet(手镯), roll it, bend it, and wear it as a clip on your clothes.
Nokia 888 Concept is mostly targeted at teenagers that are very active and take part in a lot of different activities.
3.Window Phone
It is a product to throw on the face of the shameless weather officials.
Whenever they predict sunny day be sure it would rain. So we have thought of gifting them this: “Window Phone” that makes accurate predictions and even changes its display(显示)according to the climate condition outdoors.
4.Nokia Morph
The Nokia Morph is created by Finnish company Nokia. The concept was the product of a joint study by the Nokia Research Center and the University of Cambridge’s Nanoscience Center.
The phone could be bent into numerous shapes,so it can be worn around the wrist(手腕)or held up to the face. The transparent(透明的)phone would allow it to be see-through yet functional. It has a self-cleaning surface that can absorb solar energy to recharge the phone battery(电池).
5.Clover Phone
On looks it is just another ordinary phone type,but made in recycled material, which allow the device to be upgraded to meet the latest advancements in technology.
We guess the green aspects on the high-end tech will be a selling point for this phone.
65.Which phone would probably be most popular among young people?
A.LG Fluter Concept Smart-phone | B.Window Phone |
C.Nokia 888 Communicator | D.Clover Phone |
66.How many environmentally friendly phones are listed in the text?
A.One | B.Two | C.Three | D.Four |
67.The writer wrote this text in order to .
A.make advertisements for the new phones
B.attract businessmen to make money from them
C.compare them and help you find the best one
D.introduce new ideas about phones
