When my parents bought the house, in 1982, they were only two years older than I am now. I tried to imagine myself in two years, ready to settle down and buy the house Id still be living in almost 30 years later. It seemed ridiculous. On a practical level, theres no way I could afford to buy a house anytime soon. More importantly, I wouldnt want to. Im not sure where Ill be living in two years, or what kind of job Ill have. And I dont think Ill be ready to settle down and stay in one place. So this is probably the generation gap that divides my friends and me from our parents. When our parents were our age, theyd gotten their education, chosen a career, and were starting to settle into responsible adult lives. My friends and I “Generation Y” still arent sure what we want to do with our lives. Whatever we end up doing, we want to make sure were happy doing it. Wed rather take risks first, try out different jobs, and move from one city to another until we find our favorite place. Wed rather spend our money on travel than put it in a savings account. This casual attitude toward responsibility has caused some critics to call my generation “arrogant”, “impatient”, and “overprotected”. Some of these complaints have a point. As children we were encouraged to succeed in school, but also to have fun. We grew up in a world full of technological innovation: cell phones, the Internet, instant messaging, and video games. Our parents looked to rise vertically(垂直的)-starting at the bottom of the ladder and slowly making their way to the top, on the same track, often for the same company. That doesnt apply to my generation. Because of that, it may take us longer than our parents to arrive at responsible, stable adulthood. But thats not necessarily a bad thing. In our desire to find satisfaction, we will work harder, strive for ways to keep life interesting, and gain a broader set of experiences and knowledge than our parents generation did. By Ariel Lewiston26. When the author walked through her parents house, she _. A. was frightened that she had no idea what she wanted from life B. started to think about her own life C. realized she should buy a house. D. wondered why her parents had settled down early27. What is the main “generation gap” between the author and her friends and their parents according to the article? A. Their attitude toward high technology. B. Their attitude towards responsibility.C. Their ways of making their way to the top.D. Their ways of gaining experience.28. Which of the following might the author agree with? A. Its all right to try more before settling down. B. Its better to take adult responsibility earlier. C. It involves too much effort to rise vertically. D. Its ridiculous to call her generation “arrogant”.29. What can we conclude from the article? A. The author is envious of her parents enjoying a big house at her age. B. Growing up in a hi-tech world makes “Generation Y” feel insecure about relationships. C. The author wrote this article so that others would be able to understand her generation better. D. “Generation Y” people dont want to grow up and love to be taken care of by their parents. 30. What is the main idea of this article? A. The sudden realization of growing up. B. The factors that have changed the young generation.C. Criticisms of the young generation.D. A comparison between lifestyles of generations. BIf you live in a big city, there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route, and its not just overcrowded subway trains.Vicky Zhao is a mainlander working in Hong Kong. For her, one thing she cant put up with 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 isnt a place to rest,” the 24-year-old says. “I often see tourists block the way with their suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hours. It annoys me to no end.”Admitting she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where “stand right, walk left” signs are often ignored.The logic behind the “stand right, walk left”escalatoretiquette(礼仪)seems obvious. Even though you may want to catch your breath while youre transported up or down, you should still consider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and catch the train.Many cities escalators, including Londons and Beijings, use the “stand right, walk left” system to speed up the flow of people. (Australia is an exception and you should stand on the left side instead.) But some cities discourage people from moving on escalators out of safety reasons. In Hong Kongs subway stations there are regular announcements asking people to “stand still” on escalators. Even so, most people in thisfast-paced cityobserve the “stand right, walk left”etiquette.But the people who stand on escalators defend themselves by telling the walkers not to be so impatient. The BBC quotes one stander as saying: “If the person is in such a rush, why not just take the stairs? Even when theescalatoris packed and theres nowhere to move, I see these same people complaining about not being able to pass.”Whatever theescalatoretiquetteis in the place you live or visit, do what most people are doing and always be mindful of others: leave enough space between each other, dontstayat the end of the escalator, and if someone is blocking your way, a simple “excuse me” is enough.31. In the second paragraph, the underlined word “It” refers to (指代)_.A. the authors living in the big city of Hong Kong.B. peoples blocking the way or chat on the escalators.C. being crowded on the subway trains in rush hours.D. peoples standing on the right side resting.32. When on the escalator, a majority of local people in Hong Kong_.A. stand still as the railway stations require.B. ignore the “ stand right, walk left” signsC. use the stairs instead of escalators.D. follow the “stand right, wail left” etiquette.33. What can be inferred(推断) from the 6th paragraph?A. Not everyone follows the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.B. The BBC is against the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.C. People should be patient and take the stairs if possible.D. People shouldnt complain about the crowded escalators.34. Which of the following would the writer agree with?A. People should do as the Romans do and consider others.B. People should stand right no matter where they are.C. People should do as they like on the escalators.D. People should be seriously criticized when they block the way.CSafety and Security ProceduresYour safety and the security of your personal property are of the primary concern to those of us who welcome you as our guest.
