VII. Read the following passage and circle the best option. (1pt)
tea or coffee
The Boston Tea Party did more than just helped start a war. It helped change the habits and
taste of the North American people. It turned tea drinkers into coffee drinkers.
Coffee and tea are both products of plants that grow in the tropics. When these beverages
were introduced in Europe during the 1600s, they became very profitable businesses.
Coffee reached England before tea did, but once the English tasted tea, it became a favorite
mealtime drink. English people were soon buying about two pounds of tea leaves per person per
year.
English people who went to North America as colonists took along their taste for tea. They
preferred it to coffee until about 1773. In that year, the British Parliament passed the Tea Act, a
law that helped to push the colonists into war against the mother country. Among colonists, tea
became a symbol of unfair taxation and of England's attempts to control all trading with the
colonies. The resentment of the colonists was so strong that once several groups of them boarded
English ships in Boston Harbour and threw bales of tea into the ocean. After this 'Boston Tea
Party' drinking tea was called unpatriotic by the colonists. They turned to coffee as their beverage.
Today tea is still the favourite drink in England. ON the other side of the Atlantic, things are
different. The people of the United States drink about three times as many cups of coffee as cups
of tea.

Millions of people (1) the world have never seen snow. Others see

One of the lines from my favourite song goes this way: “Love is something you do,
not what you talk”.
Indeed, we often say that we love our families, but when was the last time you took
the effort to make a cake for them or to sit down to talk to them? Do you take time to find
out what has been happening in their lives?
Most of the time, we would rather watch a movie or simply hang out at shopping
centres with our friends than spend time with our family. People tend to take their families
for granted because they have lived with them for their whole life. They do not feel the
need to be considerate to their families, unlike being so to their friends. This is because
their families would always accept and love them just as they are. It is usually when a
person leaves his family that he realizes how important his family is to him. He will then
appreciate the warmth and loving that a family gives.
