17、l, isnt accumulating memories a way of preserving the past? When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley, well equipped withpens, a diary, and a camera. During the trip, I was busy recording every incident, name and place I cameacross. I felt proud to be spending

18、 my time productively, dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels. On my last night there, I wandered out of my tent, diary in hand. Thesky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows.

19、 I automatically took out my pen.At that point, I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowedmyself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley. All I remembered of the previous few days were thedull characterizations I had set down in my diary.Now, I on

20、ly write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling. I still love torecordideas and quotationsthatstrike me in books, or observationsthat are particularlymeaningful.Itake pictures, but not very often only of objects I find really beautiful.

25、ions of itCIf you live in a big city, there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route, and itovercrowded subway trains.Vicky Zhao isa mainlander working in Hong Kong. For her, one thing she can t put up with is peoplestanding on the wrong side of the escalator（自動扶梯）in subway stations.“

26、Escalators help us move fasterand save time. It isn t a place to rest,-year-”oldthesays24.“tenIofsee tourists block the way with theirsuitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hours. Itannoys me to no end.”Admitting she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong

27、 than in cities onthe mainland where“ stand right, walk left” signs are often ignored.The logic behind the“ stand right, walk left” escalator（禮儀）etiquetteseems obvious. Even though youmay want to catch your breath while you re transported up or down, you should still consider others andleave enough

28、space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and catch the train.Manycitiesescalators, includingLondon sand Beijingus,e the “ stand right, walkleft”system tospeed up the flow of people.（ Australia is an exception and you should stand on the left side instead.） Butsome cities discourage people f

29、rommovingon escalators out of safety reasons. In Hong Kong ssubwaystations there are regular announcements asking people to“ stand still” on escalators.

31、 is in the place you live or visit, do what most people are doing andalways 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.28 In the second paragraph, the underlined word It refe

33、ations requireB ignore the“ stand right, walk left” signsC use the stairs instead of escalatorsD follow the“ stand right, walk left” etiquette30 What can be inferred from the 6th paragraph?A Not everyone follows the“ stand right, walk left” etiquette.B The BBC is against the“ stand right, walk left”

34、 etiquette.C People should be patient and take the stairs if possible.D People shouldn t complain about the crowded escalators.31 Which of the following statements is the writernion? s opiA People should stand right no matter where they are.B People should do as the Romans do and consider others.C P

35、eople should do as they like on the escalators.D People should be seriously criticized when they block the way.DNowadays more and more people are talking about genetically modified foods ( GM foods).

39、rce by the fact that they have a large number offoods to choose from, and a supply that goes beyond the needs. In developing countries desperate to feedfast- growingand underfedpopulations,the matteris simplerand much more urgent:do the benefits ofbiotech outweigh the risks?The statisticson populati

40、ongrowthand hungerare disturbing.Lastyear the worldspopulationreached 6 billion. The UN states that nearly 800 million people around the world are unhealthy. About 400millionwomen of childbearingage dont have enough iron,whichmeans theirbabies are exposed tovarious birth defeats.As many as 100 milli
