A
Vicky Zhao is from the mainland working in Hong Kong. For her, one thing she can't stand is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator(自动扶梯) in subway stations.
"Escalators help us move faster and save time. It isn't a place to rest," the 24-year-old says, "I often see tourists blocking(挡住) the way with their heavy suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hour. It makes me very angry."
Agreeing that she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where people often pay no attention to "stand right, walk left" signs.
The reason behind the rule "stand right, walk left" seems clear. Even though you may want to have a rest and just wait while you're transported up or down, you should still consider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and take the train.
But the people who stand on escalators will tell the walkers not to be so impatient. In a recent story about the escalator rule, one stander says, "If the person is in such a rush, why not just take the stairs?"
Many cities' escalators, including London's and Beijing's, use the "stand right, walk left" rule to speed up the movement of people. In Australian cities like Sydney you should stand on the left side instead. But some cities discourage people from moving on escalators out of safety reasons. In Hong Kong's subway stations people are asked to "stand still" on escalators. Even so, most people keep the "stand right, walk left" rule.
Whatever the escalator rule is in the place you live in or visit, do what most people are doing and always be mindful of others: leave enough space between each other, don't stay at the end of the escalator, and if someone is blocking your way, a simple "excuse me" is enough.
26. According to the passage, Vicky Zhao .
A. comes from Hong Kong B. is a 24-year-old girl
C. wants to be a patient person D. works in a subway station
27. The passage mentions that people are advised not to move on the escalator in .
A. London B. Beijing C. Sydney D. Hong Kong
28. It can be learnt from the passage that the writer .
A. is crazy about taking escalators B. agrees to the "stay right, walk left" rule
C. tells us to consider other people D. has been to Hong Kong many times
29. If someone blocks your way on the escalator, what should you say ?
A. Thank you. B. Excuse me. C. My pleasure. D. It doesn’t matter.
30. What's the best title of the passage?
A. Get it Right B. Help Others C. Take Stairs D. Move Fast
B

There have been many great inventions that change the way we live. The first great 60 (invent) was one that is still very important today—the wheel. This made it easy for man 61 (carry) heavy things and to travel long distances. For 62 (hundred) of years after that, there were few inventions that had as much effect as the wheel. Then in the early 1800's, the world started to change 63 (great). There was little unknown land left in the world. People did not have to explore much any more. In the second half of the 19th century, many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the electric light and the radio. These have all become a big part of our life today.
The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions. The helicopter in 1909. Movies 64 sound in 1926. The computer in 1928. And jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was first made. Nylon(尼龙) came 65 in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wore. Of course new inventions continued to be made. Man began looking 66 ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States made another. Since then other countries, including China and Japan, 67 (make) their steps into space. In 1969 man took the biggest step away from earth.
68 (America) first walked on the moon. This was certainly just a 69 (begin). New inventions will someday allow us to do things we have never yet dreamed of.

A life coach is somebody who helps you reach all kinds of personal and professional goals(目标). Each of us has the ability to be our own life coach. Here are some tips for you:
● Pay attention to your relationships with others
Ask yourself the following questions: How do you deal with disagreements? When was the last time you showed your family members that you care for them? Your relationships with friends, family members and teachers show a lot about the kind of person you are.
● Face the fears about the future
Now, imagine that one of your good friends told you that he or she was not strong enough to go back to school. We often give better advice than we are willing to take ourselves. Remember that even the most successful people were probably told that what they wanted to do was impossible, but they followed their dreams and succeed.
● Develop your talents
If you want to reach your goals, you will have to spend more time developing the talents you already have, and uncovering any hidden talents that you haven't discovered yet. So you can take classes in subjects that you are interested in, even if you have no experience.
● Be thankful
Take some time to be thankful for the things you do have. Remember positive memories. Think of the best day(s) you have had in the past month or year. Remember special parties, vacations and holidays. Appreciate the wonderful people you have in your life.
