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(举止) 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　 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(和尚) to stay awake during long hours of prayer(祷告). From Ethiopia， coffee was later cultivated(培育) in Yemen and the first hot drink was developed there around AD 1000. Three centuries later，Coffee houses appeared in Cairo and Mecca.

For many many years the plants were protected safely. But some beans were smuggled(偷运) 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(咖啡因) 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(短期)， a couple of cups of coffee can prevent fatigue and delay sleep. But several cups a day， every day， can cause anxiety(焦虑) and restlessness(坐立不安).

More and more people around the world are joining in dangerous sports. Some people climbed the highest mountains; some traveled into unknown parts of the world; some sailed small boats across the largest sea. Now some people begin to look for new excitement.

Bungee jumping (蹦极) and motorcycle racing (摩托车赛) are quite dangerous sports. Bungee jumping only lasts for a few minutes or even seconds. You jump from a high place, about 200 meters above the ground, and there is a rubber band (橡胶带子) tied to your legs. When you jump down, the rubber band pulls you up. About 2,000,000 people around the world have tried bungee jumping.

八年级英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析

Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventures ----those who have climbed the highest mountains, traveled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who look for an immediate excitement from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.

I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon) 200 metres above the ground with an elastic (有弹性的) rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jumping include jumping from tall building and diving into the sea from the top of high cliff.（悬崖）

Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was a continuous battle for survival.(生存).

Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in comparatively safe conditions; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee jumping.

1.A best title for the text is ____.

A. Dangerous sports: what and why

B. The boredom of modern life

D. The need for excitement

2.More and more people today ____.

A. are trying activities such as bungee jumping

B. are climbing the highest mountains

C. are coming close to death in sports

D. are looking for adventures such as traveling into unknown places

3.In bungee jumping, you ____.

A. jump as high as you can

B. slide down a rope to the ground

C. attach(系) yourself to a rope and fall to the ground

D. fall towards the ground without a rope

4.People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because _____.

A. they have a lot of free time

B. they can go to hospital if they are injured

C. their life is short of excitement

D. they no longer need to hunt for food
