When I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from china.
When India had not opened up its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans.Thankfully, we can get all these anywhere in India now.
Still, her answer surprised me: “Green tea.”
As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink Indian tea.
I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story.My mother and her brother, both regular newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses.
At the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the average Indian.It was a strange country.
How things change! And how soon!
Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”.And everyone is talking about China.
The government of India has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done.A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment (投资) and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”.
But it’s a two-way street.I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Bangalore to train in software.Meanwhile, all the Indian IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China.
No wonder that trade , which was only in the millions just ten years ago, is expected to hit about US$15 billion for last year and US$20 billion by 2008, a goal set by both governments.
No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the Sino-Indian (中印)century as the two countries started on January 1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.
But what is still a wonder to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea.
1.Why did the mother ask for Chinese green tea?
A.She was tired of Indian tea. B.She had a son working in China.
C.She believed it had a curing effect. D.She was fond of Chinese products.
2.What does the author mean by “it’s a two-way street” in Paragraph 10?
A.The exchanges between India and China benefit both.
B.Tea trade works wonders in both India and China.
C.Chinese products are popular in both China and India.
D.China and India have different traffic rules.
3.What do we know about the Indian IT industry?
A.It will move its head office to Shenzhen.
B.It is seeking further development in China.
C.It has attracted an investment of US$15 billion.
D.It caught up with the US IT industry in 2008.
4.In the text the author expresses _____.
A.his concern for his mother’s health
B.his support for drinking Chinese green tea
C.his wonder at the growth of India’s IT industry
D.his surprise at China’s recent development

高二英语完成句子困难题查看答案及解析
I could still remember that hot afternoon when my mother ordered me to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. In this way, she hoped to defeat my strange problem — inability to read.
In the library, I found my way into the “Children's Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal friend I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.
There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked similar to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.
Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.
My mother's call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be so wonderful. I was going to read them.
I never told my mother about my wonderful experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in the literature, and published his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.
1.The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order to ___________.
A. help cure him of his reading problem
B. encourage him to do more walking
C. let him spend a meaningful summer
D. make him learn more about animals
2. The author managed to read the book through because .
A. he was forced by his mother to read it
B. the book told the story of his pet dog
C. the book reminded him of his own story with his dog
D. the happy ending of the story attracted him
3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The author's mother read the same book.
B. The author has become a successful writer.
C. The author has had happy summers ever since.
D. The author's mother rewarded him with books.
4.Which one can be the best title of the passage?
A. The Charm of a Book B. Mum's Strict Order
C. Reunion with My Beagle D. My Passion for Reading
