10、e people believed that coffee would replace tea as Britains favourite drink, but that did not happen, and today, tea remains Britains favourite drink.

13、or the nobility(贵族) and for the growing middle classes. Among those who had the money for tea, it became very popular as a drink to be enjoyed in cafs and “tea gardens”. It was the 7th Duchess of Bedford who, in around 1800, started the popular “afternoon tea”, which took place at about four oclock.

14、 At about the same time, the Earl of Sandwich popularized a new way of eating bread with something (e. g. jam) between them, and before long, a small meal at the end of the afternoon with tea and sandwiches had bee part of a way of life. As tea became much cheaper during the nineteenth century, its

15、popularity spread right through British society. In working-class households, it was served with the main meal of the day, eaten when workers returned home after a days labour. This meal has bee known as “high tea”. Today, tea can be drunk at any time of day. Most people in Britain drink tea for bre

16、akfast. The mid-morning “tea break”is an institution in British offices and factories.

20、aps simply that a good movie has just started on TV.At a time when families are spread far and wide and marriages often end in divorce, friendships are being more and more important.

21、k one night, so I called Jane at about 3:00 a.m. to talk about it,” she says. “She was very supportive and even came over to take me to the doctors the next morning.”As American TV shows like Friends, which follows the lives of a very close group of young friends, have bee more popular, many of us a

22、re beginning to see the value of such friendships. TV shows like this tell us that our romantic relationships may not last, but we need to keep in touch with our close friends if we want to survive.A TV show called Real Women is about the lives and relationships of five former school friends. In thi

23、s show, family, husbands, and work are all less important than friendships. One of its actresses says the show reflects her own experience. “Friendship is about mitment. I dont see some of my friends for ages but when we get together, it is as if time hasn”t passed.”This is true of Erika and Janes f

It is not the kind of thing that you could ask anyone to do, but she knows I would do the s

25、ame for her.” Erika feels that because she no longer sees her family every day, she now enjoys a closer relationship with her best friend. Jane, who may move to a different city soon, is worried about leaving such a support system of friends. “My friends have more to do with my life than my parents

26、and, therefore, I dont have to spend a lot of time explaining things to them.
