　　One thing that British and Chinese cultures share is a love for fine tea.
Today, when we think of Western tea culture, we often think of the English and
beautiful china tea cups.
　　Afternoon tea
　　People believe that an English lady, Anna, first introduced the idea of
afternoon tea. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the English ate two main meals each
day-breakfast and a heavy supper that would last for several hours in the
evening. As a result, people often got very hungry during the long wait between
these two meals. To solve this problem, Anna came up with the clever idea of
inviting some friends to join her for an afternoon meal between four and five
o'clock. This meal included cakes and sandwiches, and tea was served to wash
down the food. In order to make this afternoon meal important, fine china cups
and plates, and silver teapots, knives, forks and spoons were used.
Soon afternoon tea parties became popular. Today, afternoon tea parties continue
to play an important part in the social life in modern Britain.
　　Will you come for coffee?
　　Coffee also has an important role in British culture. People often use the
words "Will you come for coffee?" to mean "Would you like to come to my home
for a chat?" Usually several different drinks such as tea, hot chocolate or a soft
drink like orange juice will be served as well as coffee, and you will be asked
what you would like. However, you will not be offered wine at a "coffee" party.
　　Coffeehouse and the London Stock Exchange
　　In the 17th century London, coffeehouses were busy and noisy places.
Businessmen and bankers went to coffeehouses to do their business, as well as to
drink coffee. In fact the London Stock(股票)Exchange is believed to have
started from these coffeehouses.

历史文化类阅读

考点名称：历史文化类阅读

历史文化类阅读：
本类题型常用的方式是夹叙夹议。叙述的目的是为了议，所以要把握其议才是主要方面。
阅读这类文章，先弄清其引入的话题，再弄清里面人物对其不同的看法，然后理解作者本身对话题的观点看法或思考。
初中英语阅读理解的解题技巧：
一、要注意养成良好的阅读心理，阅读时要去掉杂念，心绪要安定，精神要专一，要形成一种惬意的顺向心理。
切不可一遇到几个生词难句，就心烦意乱，失去自控能力。心理学家告诉我们，任何恐慌，过分紧张的情绪都会形成一种消极因素妨碍大脑的正常思维功能。
因此，遇到困难一定要从容不迫，心无旁骛。这样才能对所读的文章印象清晰，理解深刻。

二、要提高视读的速度，考阅读理解，从另一个方面来说，考的是考试速度。因此做阅读理解时，要注意培养自己快速阅读的习惯。
切不可在个别难懂的词句上磨蹭，只要全篇理解了，个别难懂的词句可以根据上下文和构词法去猜测，去推断。

三、对文章的评价分析，一定要坚持“词不离句，句不离篇”，要理解文章作者的原意，而不能按你自己的意愿去想当然。
切记：一想当然，就会出错。
