A
When I was going home to India last year,I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from China.
When India had not opened up its markets to the world,I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans.Thankfully,we can get all these anywhere in India now.
Still,her answer surprised me: “Green tea.”
As long as I can remember she didnt even drink Indian tea.
I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and headed home to hear the story.My mother and her brother,both regular newspaper readers,believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder drug for all illnesses.
At the turn of the century,China was not really familiar to the average Indian.It was a strange country.
How things change! And how soon!
Now every town of any size seems to have a “China Market”.And everyone is talking about China.
The government of India has planned to send a team to China to see how things are done.A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment(投资) and such a step would “work wonders as it did for China”.
But its a twoway street.I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Rangalore to train in software.Meanwhile,all the IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China.
No wonder that trade ,which was only in the millions just ten years ago,is expected to hit about USMYM15 billion for last year and USMYM20 billion by 2008,a goal set by both governments.
No wonder,my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this being the SinoIndian(中印)century as the two countries started on January 1，the SinoIndian Friendship Year.
But what is still a wonder to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea.
()21.Why did the mother ask for Chinese green tea?
A.She was tired of Indian tea.
B.She had a son working in China.
C.She believed it had a curing effect.
D.She was fond of Chinese products.
()22.What does the author mean by “its a twoway street” in Paragraph 10?
A.China and India have different traffic rules.
B.Tea trade works wonders in both India and China.
C.Chinese products are popular in both China and India.
D.The exchanges between India and China benefit both.
()23.What do we know about the Indian IT industry?
A.It will move its head office to Shenzhen.
B.It is seeking further development in China.
C.It has attracted an investment of USMYM15 billion.
D.It caught up with the US IT industry in 2008.
()24.In the text the author expresses .
A.his concern for his mothers health
B.his support for drinking Chinese green tea
C.his surprise at Chinas recent development
D.his wonder at the growth of Indias IT industry

Ⅰ.Vocabulary and structure
1.D 【解析】英语表示“……世纪……年代”时应为：“in the+年代s”，如：在二十世纪八十年代=in the 1980s，表示从1980~1989这期间的10年;而in 1980=在1980年，一年的时间。
2.D 【解析】当不定式所表示的动作先于谓语动词所表示的动作时，不定式用完成时，且kill与逻辑主语people之间是被动关系，故选D。
3.A 【解析】 Following做伴随状语，修饰 found。伴随状语只有两种形式，主动用 following 形式;被动用followed形式。
4.A 【解析】 本句测试的是so…ad.…that…结果状语从句的倒装结构，即so提到主语之前，主句用部分倒装。
5.B 【解析】 May用在陈述式结构中表示“祝愿”。
6.C 【解析】one做 leader的同位语。
