III.Reading Comprehension:Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: Passage 1.A Versatile Beverage What beverage is so common that it is almost always taken for granted,yet so special that some cultures worship it for its mystical properties?It is coffee,one of the most popular drinks in the world.Perhaps it is misleading to describe coffee as a single beverage,when in actually it can be many beverages. A Turkish traveler to the United States,or an American traveler in Italy,may be confused by the liquid which is served upon request for coffee.American and British coffees are probably the weakest variations,while coffee enjoyed in the Middle East is an extremely potent decoction,almost thick enough to be consumed with a spoon. Although coffee salespeople would have the public believe that the type of bean utilized is a critical element in making good coffee,in fact almost all coffee is derived from the seeds(called beans")of the coffee arabica plant,native to Africa. More related are the methods of roasting the beans and the methods of preparing the coffee beverage.The longer the beans are roasted,the more intense the flavor becomes. There is enormous variety in the methods of preparing coffee,and also in the equipment developed not only for preparation but also for serving coffee.For example,while the comparatively weak American drink may be made in an electric coffee pot and served in large cups. Yugoslavian coffee is boiled along with sugar and water in little brass pots and served in small round-bottomed cups. Some cultures assume that coffee is to be served with sugar or with hot milk already added in;some allow for the addition of these or cream according to personal preference.Still others prohibit the addition of milk,but insist on the inclusion of sugar. While coffee is regarded as a delicious drink the world over,some cultures endow it with much greater significance. In Revolutionary War times,the American colonists turned to drinking coffee as a patriotic gesture after dumping their favorite beverage,tea,into Boston Harbor to protest taxation of tea by the King of England.
