28、 Starbuck’s founder, Howard Schultz, came up with an idea for his coffee chain while drinking espresso(浓咖啡) in a bar. He took a good product, repackaged it and globalized it. But to many Italians, the coffee served by Starbucks and other branded stores is as far away from proper Italian coffee as you can get, despite the Italian-sounding offerings on their menus.
Now, I am part-Italian and like most Italians, I think that Italy represents the height of coffee culture, against the standard by which all coffee should be measured. My Italian friends and family hate the idea of adding a little sugar juice or other things to their valuable cappuccino(卡布基诺). I have a coffee machine at home, which is to the Italian kitchen what the kettle is to the British. As far as I’m concerned, the cappuccinos, lattes(拿铁) and espressos served in branded coffee chains taste bitter, a low copy of the real thing.
You’d never ask for a latte in Italy. If you did, you’d get served a glass of milk. Coffee and espresso are the same in Italy. Then there’s the Australian “white coffee”, a halfway house between a Starbucks-style latte and a macchiato(玛奇朵). The “white coffee” has gone global so much that recently it replaced the cappuccino on Starbucks’ menu in some parts of the US.
What’s more, Italians don’t waste time around in coffee shop armchairs drinking cappuccinos while surfing the Internet. Still, when it comes to taste, Italians are trying to reclaim the ground. Part of the problem is the price of coffee. Most Italian bars will not charge more than one euro a cup, which means there isn’t the choice to purchase more high-quality coffee. Italian flavor is held back by the way the coffee is boiled.
I still think I’ll be sticking to home-made coffee from my trusted machine. And I’ll continue to drink it in the Italian way.
【1】What’s the purpose of telling the story of Starbucks in Paragraph 1?
A.To introduce the topic of the passage. B.To introduce the history of Starbucks.
C.To present the standard of good coffee. D.To explain the key to the success of Starbucks.
【2】In the author’s opinion, the coffee served in Starbucks and other branded stores _______.
A.contains too much sugar juice B.represents the Italian coffee culture
C.is very different from that served in the US D.cannot meet the Italian standard of good coffee
【3】Italians prefer home-made coffee due to the fact that _______.
A.home-made coffee is much cheaper
B.they can produce proper Italian coffee at home
C.each family has a tradition to use the coffee machine
D.they can have access to the Internet when drinking coffee at home
29、Nowadays, many people have to work at home, and if you feel it difficult to strike a balance between work and home mode. Here are some tips to help you.
Distinguish between work and home mode
One of the biggest advantages about working at home - slowly moving from bed to the sofa five minutes before you start - can also be your biggest challenge. 【1】 - so set yourself up the right way, get dressed and brush your teeth at the start of the day rather than sitting in your pajamas for eight hours.
【2】
Eyre-White, a famous professor recommends being realistic and then possibly achieving more than you set out to; and feeling satisfied, rather than feeling disappointed you didn’t do everything. She suggests choosing three to five things to do and aim to get the majority done before lunch. 【3】
Don’t forget to take breaks
It can be difficult to tear yourself away from your laptop if you’re worried people might think you’re lazy, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take proper breaks. Leave your desk for lunch and take advantage of being at home to walk the dog and clean the room for half an hour in the afternoon. 【4】
Manage disturbance
Being in an office gives you a limited number of ways to get disturbed but when you start working in a new environment, especially a very familiar one, it can be easy to let yourself get disturbed. There are a lot of potential disturbance when you work at home, so you should actively manage things which might interrupt your focus, and keep them limited to short breaks.
【5】
A.Have a good plan.
B.All in all, time to work, time to relax.
C.Don’t forget that you are there to work.
D.Be realistic about what you can achieve.
E.In a word, don’t put all the eggs in one basket.
F.Because most people slow down in the mid-afternoon.
G.You’ll return feeling refreshed and more productive for the rest of the day.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
NASA is on a journey to Mars, with a goal of sending humans to the Red Planet in the 2030s. That journey is already well under way.
For decades, the agency and its partners have sent orbiters, landers and rovers(探测器), 【1】 increasing our knowledge about the Red Planet and paving the way for future human explorers. The Curiosity rover has gathered radiation data to help us protect future astronauts, and the upcoming Mars 2020 rover will study the 【2】 of Martian resources, including oxygen.
Building on the robotic legacy(遗产), the human exploration of Mars crosses three thresholds(门槛), each with 【3】 challenges as humans move farther from Earth: Earth Reliant, the Proving Ground, and Earth Independent.
Earth Reliant explorations is 【4】 on research aboard the International Space Station. The orbiting microgravity laboratory serves as a world - class test bed for the technologies and communications systems needed for human missions to deep space. Astronauts are learning about what it takes to live and work in space for long periods of time, improving our understanding of how the body changes in space and how to protect astronauts' health.
Next, we move into the Proving Ground, 【5】 a series of missions near the moon called “cislunar space” to test the capabilities we will need to live and work at Mars. Astronauts on the space station are only hours away from Earth, but the proving ground is days away, a(n) 【6】 stepping stone to a Mars mission, which will be months away from home.
Also in the 2020s, we’ll send astronauts on a year-long mission into this deep space proving ground, confirming habitation and testing our 【7】 for Mars.
Finally, we become Earth Independent, building on the knowledge 【8】 on the space station and in deep space to send humans to low-Mars orbit in the early 2030s.
This phase will also test the entry, descent(降落)and landing techniques needed to get to the Martin surface and study what's needed for in-situ resource utilization or "living off the land". NASA is already studying the 【9】 "Exploration Zones" on Mars that would offer compelling science research and provide resources our astronauts can use.
There are challenges to 【10】 Mars, but we know they are solvable. We are well on our way to getting there, landing there, and living there.
