1.A few mnths ag as I wandered thrugh my parents’ huse, the same huse I grew up in, I had a sudden, scary realizatin. When my parents bught the huse, in 1982, they were nly tw years lder than I am nw. I tried t imagine myself in tw years, ready t settle dwn and buy the huse I’d still be living in almst 30 years later.
It seemed ridiculus. On a practical level, there’s n way I culd affrd t buy a huse anytime sn. Mre imprtantly, I wuldn’t want t. I’m nt sure where I’ll be living in tw years, r what kind f jb I’ll have. And I dn’t think I’ll be ready t settle dwn and stay in ne place.
S this is prbably the generatin gap that divides my friends and me frm ur parents. When ur parents were ur age, they’d gtten their educatin, chsen a career, and were starting t settle int respnsible adult lives.
My friends and I – “Generatin Y” – still aren’t sure what we want t d with ur lives. Whatever we end up ding, we want t make sure we’re happy ding it. We’d rather take risks first, try ut different jbs, and mve frm ne city t anther until we find ur favrite place. We’d rather spend ur mney n travel than put it in a savings accunt.
This casual attitude twards respnsibility has caused sme critics t call my generatin “arrgant”, “impatient”, and “verprtected”. Sme f these cmplaints have a pint. As children we were encuraged t succeed in schl, but als t have fun. We grew up in a wrld full f technlgical innvatin: cellphnes, the Internet, instant messaging, and vide games.
Our parents lked t rise vertically（垂直的）– starting at the bttm f the ladder and slwly making their way t the tp, n the same track, ften fr the same cmpany. That desn’t apply t my generatin.
Because f that, it may take us lnger than ur parents t arrive at respnsible, stable adulthd. But that’s nt necessarily a bad thing. In ur desire t find satisfactin, we will wrk harder, struggle fr ways t keep life interesting, and gain a brader set f experiences and knwledge than ur parents’ generatin did.

A. Their ways f gaining experience.
B. Their attitude twards respnsibility.
C. Their attitude tward high technlgy.

B. It’s better t take adult respnsibility earlier.
C. It’s all right t try mre befre settling dwn.
D. It’s ridiculus t call her generatin “arrgant”.
69. What can we cnclude frm the article?
A. The authr is envius f her parents enjying a big huse at her age.
B. “Generatin Y” peple dn’t want t grw up and rush int adulthd.
C. Grwing up in a hi-tech wrld makes “Generatin Y” feel insecure abut relatinships.

3.Yu may nt pay much attentin t yur daily elevatr ride. Many f us use a lift several times during the day withut really thinking abut it. But Lee Gray, PhD, f the University f Nrth Carlina, US, has made it his business t examine this verlked frm f public transprt. He is knwn as the “Elevatr Guy”.
“The lift becmes this interesting scial space where etiquette（礼仪）is srt f strange,” Gray tld the BBC. “They are scially very interesting but ften very awkward places.”
We walk in and usually turn arund t face the dr. If smene else cmes in, we may have t mve. And here, accrding t Gray, liftusers unthinkingly g thrugh a set pattern f mvements. He tld the BBC what he had bserved.
He explained that when yu are the nly ne inside a lift, yu can d whatever yu want – it’s yur wn little bx.
If there are tw f yu, yu g int different crners, standing diagnally（对角线地）acrss frm each ther t create distance.
When a third persn enters, yu will uncnsciusly frm a triangle. And when there is a furth persn it becmes a square, with smene in every crner. A fifth persn is prbably ging t have t stand in the middle.
New entrants t the lift will need t size up the situatin when the drs slide pen and then act decisively. Once in, fr mst peple the rule is simple – lk dwn, r lk at yur phne.
Why are we s awkward in lifts?
“Yu dn’t have enugh space,” Prfessr Babette Renneberg, a clinical psychlgist at the Free University f Berlin, tld the BBC. “Usually when we meet ther peple we have abut an arm’s length f distance between us. And that’s nt pssible in mst elevatrs.”
In such a small, enclsed space it becmes very imprtant t act in a way that cannt be cnstrued（理解）as threatening r strange. “The easiest way t d this is t avid eye cntact,” she said.
59. The main purpse f the article is t _______.
A. share an interesting but awkward elevatr ride

4.Hercule Pirt lked ver the small gate which gave admissin t Pine Crest. It was a mdern nicely-built huse. It was n a hill tp, and the hill tp was planted with a few sparse pines. It had a small neat garden and a large elderly man was watering with a big tin.
Spence’s hair was nw grey all ver. He had nt shrunk much in girth（围长）, thugh. He stpped watering and lked at the visitr at the gate. Hercule Pirt std there withut mving.
“Gd bless my sul,” said Spence. “It must be. It can’t be but it is. Yes, it must be Hercule Pirt!”
“Aha,” said Pirt, “yu remember me. I’m grateful.”
Spence abandned the watering can and came dwn t the gate.
“What brings yu dwn here?”
“What has brught me t many places in my time,” said Pirt, “and what nce a gd many years ag brught yu t see me. Murder, Spence.”
“I’m dne with murder since I retired,” said Spence, “except in the case f weeds. Killing weeds is never easy as yu think, smething’s always wrng. Hw did yu knw where t find me?” he asked as he pened the gate and Pirt passed thrugh.
“Yu sent me a Christmas card. It had yur new address n it.”
“Ah yes, s I did. I’m ld-fashined, yu knw, I like t send rund cards at Christmas time t a few ld friends. I’m an ld man nw.”
“We bth are.”
“Nt much grey in yur hair,” said Spence.
“I take care f my hair with a bttle,” said Pirt. “There is n need t appear in public with grey hair unless yu wish t d s. By the way, why have yu cme t live in Wdleigh Cmmn?”
“As a matter f fact, I came here t jin frces with a sister f mine. She lst her husband, her children are married and living abrad. S I mved in here. Pensins（退休金）dn’t g far nwadays, but we d cmfrtably living tgether.”

5. I travel a lt, and I find ut different "styles" (风格) f directins every time 1 ask "Hw can I get t the pst ffice?"
Freign turists are ften cnfused (困惑) in Japan because mst streets there dn't have names; in Japan, peple use landmarks (地标) in their directins instead f street names. Fr example, the Japanese will say t travelers, "G straight dwn t the crner. Turn left at the big htel and g past a fruit market. The pst ffice is acrss frm the bus stp."
In the cuntryside f the American Midwest, there are nt usually many landmarks. There are n muntains, s the land is very flat; in many places there are n twns r buildings within miles. Instead f landmarks, peple will tell yu directins and distances. In Kansas r Iwa, fr example, peple will say, "G nrth tw miles. Turn east, and then g anther mile."
Peple in Ls Angeles, Califrnia, have n idea f distance n the map; they measure distance in time, nt miles. "Hw far away is the pst ffice?" yu ask. "Oh," they answer, "it's abut five minutes frm here." Yu say, "Yes, but hw many miles away is it?" They dn't knw.
It's true that a persn desn't knw the answer t yur questin smetimes. What happens in such a situatin? A New Yrker might say, 'Srry, I have n idea." But in Yucatan, Mexic, n ne answers "I dn't knw." Peple in Yucatan believe that "I dn't knw" is implite, They usually give an answer, ften a wrng ne. A turist can get very, very lst in Yucatan!
