9.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 (自動扶梯) in subway station.
"Escalators help us move faster and save time.It isn't a place to rest,"the 24-years-old says,"I often see tourists blocking (擋住) 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 station 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.

B.is a 24-year-old girl
C.wants to be a patient person

分析 翻譯:
趙維姬來自內(nèi)地在香港工作.對她來說,她唯一不能忍受的是人們站在地鐵站自動扶梯的反面."自動扶梯幫助我們行動更快并且節(jié)省時間.這不是一個休息的地方,"24歲的女孩說,"我經(jīng)常在繁忙的時間看到游客在自動扶梯上帶著他們沉重的行李箱擋住路或在上面交談.這讓我很生氣."她說.認(rèn)為她不是有耐心的類型,趙說在香港比在內(nèi)地的城市的人們往往不注意"站在右邊,走左邊"的標(biāo)識好多了.規(guī)則"站在右邊,走左邊"的原因似乎很清楚,即使你想休息一下,等你上來或者下去時,你還是應(yīng)該考慮其他人,并把足夠的空間留給匆忙的人,這樣他們就可以坐上火車.但是,站在自動扶梯上的人告訴行人不要那么不耐煩.在關(guān)于自動扶梯的規(guī)則的最近的一個故事里,一個旁觀者說,"如果十萬火急,為什么不走樓梯呢?"許多城市的自動扶梯,包括倫敦的和北京的,用"站右邊,走左邊"的規(guī)則,加快人行走的流量.(在澳大利亞的城市如悉尼,你應(yīng)該相反站在左側(cè).)但一些城市出于安全原因禁止人們在自動扶梯上行走.在香港的地鐵站有人被要求在自動扶梯上"站好".即使這樣,大多數(shù)人遵守"站右邊,左行邊"的規(guī)則.無論你是生活還是訪問的這個地方的電梯的規(guī)則是什么,大多數(shù)人都正在做什么并且總是注意別人,彼此之間留下足夠的空間,不要停留在自動扶梯末端,如果有人阻礙你的路,一句簡單的"對不起"足夠了.

解答 48.B.根據(jù)語境For her,one thing she can't stand is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator (自動扶梯) in subway station."Escalators help us move faster and save time.It isn't a place to rest,"the 24-years-old says,可知Vicky Zhao是一個24歲的女孩.故選:B
49.D.根據(jù)語境In Hong Kong's subway station people are asked to"stand still"on escalators.Even so,most people keep the"stand right,walk left"rule.可知是在香港建議人們不要在自動扶梯上移動.故選:D
50.C.根據(jù)語境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.可知作者告訴我們要考慮其他人的感受.故選:C
51.根據(jù)語境Many cities'escalators,including London's and Beijing's,use the"stand right,walk left"rule to speed up the movement of people.和文章大意可知題目是正確的自動扶梯使用方式.故選:A

點(diǎn)評 本題考查人物故事類閱讀理解.閱讀時要學(xué)會從事情本身的發(fā)展去理解故事情節(jié)而不要只看事件在文中出現(xiàn)的先后順序.因此,無論是順敘還是倒敘,閱讀此類文章時,必須要找到它結(jié)構(gòu)中的5個W(when,where,who,why,what)和1個H(how),不過不是每篇都會完整地交待六個要素.毫無疑問,尋出這些元素是能夠正確快速解題的一個先決條件.
