【解析】

茶是世界上廣泛飲用的一種飲料，中國人很早就有喝茶的習慣，其實在西方很多國家，人們也很喜歡喝茶。這篇短文給我們介紹了不同國家的人們對茶的喜愛。

【1】句意：茶是世界上僅次于水的最廣泛飲用的飲料。

根據(jù)句意可知，“茶”是一種飲料，這個空也應(yīng)填的是一種飲料，結(jié)合常識可知，除了茶，人們喝得最多的應(yīng)該就是水了。故答案為water。

【2】句意：有人說茶是中國的國飲，因為很多中國人幾乎每天都喝茶。

句中提到“tea is the national drink of China”茶是中國的國飲，所以很多中國人都喜歡喝茶。故答案為Chinese。

【3】句意：在美國，甜的茶更受歡迎。

根據(jù)下句話“It is made with black tea, sugar and fruit.”可知，這種茶是由紅茶、糖和水果做成的。結(jié)合單詞的首字母可知，這里考查的是sweet，意為“甜的”。故答案為sweet。

【4】句意：紅茶和糖過去很貴，價格很高。

句中提到了… used to be expensive“價格很貴”，因此這里應(yīng)考查cost，意為“花費，費用”。故答案為cost。

【5】句意：他們通常在下午喝——這被稱為“茶時間”。

根據(jù)句意可知，這句話介紹的是英國人喝茶的習慣，應(yīng)用“通�！�…”，考查usually，是一個副詞。故答案為usually。

【6】句意：你想要一杯熱茶嗎？

上句話“The cold winter is coming”“寒冷的冬天就要來了”，所以這里對應(yīng)的應(yīng)該是“喝一杯熱茶”，考查hot，意為“熱的”。故答案為hot。
