Coffee is one of the western drinks,it is popular everywhere.But if you enter a coffee shop,you will feel puzzled ,bow to choose one kind of coffee is a difficult choice.Here is some    information about coffee,perhaps it can help you to choose .
Cafe Espresso is loved by many coffee experts（行家） and is known as "The rose of coffee ". Espresso is made by forcing very hot water under high pressure through finely ground (细磨的） coffee. Crema, a heavy red-brown foam   layer(泡沫层) , stands for good espresso. It tastes strong and bitter for those who are new to the coffee world.
Cafe Americano is an espresso shot (一份一盎司的浓缩咖啡)that tastes with hot water. It's said the name was given to Americans whom the Europeans believed didn't like drinking straight espressos. Americano is recommended to new coffee lovers who may find the espresso taste is too strong. In China, many coffee shops add cream and sugar to Americano to suit the taste of regular customers.
Cappuccino and Latte are the favorite kinds of coffee among girls, both consisting of espresso, steamed milk(热蒸奶)， and frothed milk(奶沫). All this makes the coffee taste weaker. Cappuccino has a thicker layer of frothed milk than latte. When enjoying a quality cup of Cappuccino, you are actually enjoying a moment of romance(浪漫).
Mocha is also a popular after-dinner coffee in the west. It is one part espresso with one part of chocolate syrup(糖浆) and two or three parts of frothed milk. Whipped cream(鲜奶油) on top is an option. For a friend who rarely drinks coffee but likes chocolate, mocha is the best choice.

If you travel in New Zealand, you may find some very interesting things. It is called “New Zealand Four Strange Things”.

	Have you ever seen that cows are lined up? New Zealand is so large. It is impossible for people to milk cows by hand. So the farmers trained the leading cow to take the cows to the milking station twice a day. The leading cow has a sensor（传感器）on its head. When it is time for milking, the sensor warns the leading cow to take the lead.
	Horses are mainly raised for viewing（观赏）and racing, so the coat color is very important. Wearing sunscreen（防晒）clothes on horses can avoid the harm from the sun. The clothes on horses are filled with weights that are the same weight of the rider. When the weights are replaced by the rider during the race, “________” just like the sportsman running with sandbags.
	Sheep in New Zealand used to have tails. Because they poop（排便）when they’re born, grass flies are interested in them. Grass flies lay their eggs in the tails of the baby sheep, causing illness and death. Then people tie their tails. As time passes, the sheep become tailless. This improves the survival rate（成活率）.
	New Zealand’s alpacas（羊驼）were introduced from South America. They are quite different from two-humped camels（双峰驼）. An alpaca weighs about 55 kg to 65 kg. Its shape is like a sheep. Only one grown-up male（雄性）alpaca can be found in each group. It is the leading one. Alpacas are gentle, clever and human.

1. Why do the cows in New Zealand stand in line?

2. Which of the following can be put in “________”?
