3 cities. In big cities such as Beijing, coffee shops seem to be on nearly every major street corner. These 4 are not just selling drinks from Starbucks, the world-famous coffee company. Coffee businesses from South Korea and Britain are also 5 in China.
Many young Chinese people drink coffee 6 -- when meeting with friends. Yang Lin lives in the U.S. but comes from an area in China 7 for growing tea. She used to

第二节 语法填空 (共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分)
阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为16～25的相应位置上。The Italian dinners we had every Sunday when I was a boy were feasts fit for a king. There were loaves of Italian bread ready to be eaten. 16 were great with butter and even 17 (good) when you dipped them in the sauce（调味汁）. My grandma, 18 we called "Nanny", would always bake them a day ahead so they would be ready. I remember watching her hand make the dough（面团）. I would often ask to help but only because I wanted to have 19 bite of the dough before she placed it in the pans to bake.
One day I 20 (fool) asked Nanny why she didn’t just buy bread at the store 21 (save) time. “Because they’re not as good,” she said 22 her thick Italian accent. Then she laughed, smiled, and gave me a piece of dough to eat.
Nanny was right. Today I buy my bread at the store and it isn’t as good. It is factory-made and 23 (lack) all the taste, warmth, and love that Nanny put into hers. Store-bought happiness is a sad substitute for homemade joy. 24 you want lasting love, permanent peace, and endless joy, then you have to bake them 25 your own.
