12．If you live in a big city，there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route，and it's not just overcrowded subway trains．
Vicky Zhao is a mainlander working in Hong Kong．For her，one thing she can't 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 isn't 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"escalator etiquette（礼仪） seems obvious．Even though you may want to catch your breath 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 catch the train．
Many cities'escalators，including London's and Beijing's，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 Kong's subway stations there are regular announcements asking people to"stand still"on escalators．Even so，most people in this fast-paced city observe 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 the escalator is packed and there's nowhere to move，I see these same people complaining about not being able to pass．"
Whatever the escalator etiquette is 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，don't stay at the end of the escalator，and if someone is blocking your way，a simple"excuse me"is enough．

10．After long hours of flying，we arrived at Beijing International Airport．I（37）was impressed（impress） by its architecture．Then we took the bus to the hotel（38）called（call） Golden Village．
Within the first two days of classes，I got（39）a map of Beijing in English．That night，a couple of us sat down and（40）combined（combine） all the places that we wanted to visit including the ones that we researched about before we left the U．S．It would have been impossible for us to explore（41）without the help of the local students．All the students were very（42）helpful（help） in letting us ask questions and taking us around the city．Other than small（43）difficulties（difficult） in communication，the local students spoke English fairly well．In the beginning we were just classmates，（44）butby the end of the trip，we were all friends．
After（45）spending（spend） three weeks there，I felt like I gained a great experience．I observed such a different perspective of China by（46）actually（actual） being in country rather just hearing about it through the media．

9．I've never been late for school，but this morning I came very close．（61）When I got out of home，the early bus had left away just in front of me．Seeing the gone bus，I ran after it at once，hoping to catch it．At the same time，I（62 ）shouted （shout）"Stop!Stop!"，but the bus didn't stop----it was clear that he didn't hear me．As soon as I thought that I might be late for school，I became really（63）worried（worry）．Time went by and you could imagine how upset I was．A moment later，there came another bus．It was a"wrong"bus．I had no（64）choice（choose） but to get on it because they were in the same direction．I asked the driver（65 ）if/whether he could drive faster and help me to catch the front bus which I missed just now．To（66）my surprise，the kind driver agreed and said he would have a try．Nobody knew how upset and worried I felt all the way．（67）Luckily （luck），the front bus had a stop halfway because of some（68）passengers （passenger） getting-off．The two buses met finally…I happily thanked the bus driver and jumped down from the bus as quickly as（69）possible．I made it!What an unusual and（70）tiring（tire） bus ride!

8．As a young ice-skater，I had flown pretty high，pretty quickly．My partner and I won the Canadian junior pairs championship when I was 14．Later I was thrilled to be picked to skate in the 2008Olympics in Beijing，China．But then everything came down．
We finished the 12^th at the Games．I soon quit double skating and tried to continue in singles．But I wasn't good enough； I didn't even compete in the next two national championships．I felt like I was a somebody who had become a nobody．
I was 18and had just graduated from high school when my mom told me，"You can't just depend on skating to make a living．You'd better find a job．"I knew she was right．So I found a job at a restaurant where I waited at table and did anything else that needed to be done．In fact，I worked so hard that I had never got the chance to have a break．No one cared about that I had been an Olympic skater； I was judged only by how hard I worked．
That job taught me so many things．I learned，for example，how to deal with people．As an athlete，this was new to me．One day a man loudly called me over to his table and complained，"This milk is sour．I am not drinking this junk!I want my money back!"It was near the end of my shift （轮班） and I wanted to tell him how rude I thought he was．But I had learned that"the customer is always right"and a smile can go a long way．"I'm really sorry，sir．I'll get you a free cup．"I said with a smile．When I brought him his coffee，his attitude changed．And he left me a tip!
My first job taught me that it is important to do your best at anything you try．I knew nothing about being a waitress when I started my job but by the time I left---when I decided to return to skating---I had earned a raise and my boss's praise．They meant so much to me．

7．The year of 2016is the beginning of China's 13th Five-Year Plan，_____ ecological civilization is an important part．（　　）

6．Challenge is an opportunity：to make it gold or a tough stone，it only depends on you．
Every time you overcome a challenge，it will lift you up，build you strong and make it easier for you to overcome your next trial．But if you surrender to the challenge，it will downsize you，break a piece of confidence in you and make it harder for you to overcome it the next time．It's like building muscles-the more you train them，the stronger they will become．
I used to be an inactive person．I was sitting behind my desk at work for eight to nine hours everyday，commuting to work and everywhere else by taxi and subway，sitting in my couch at home and sleeping for one third of my life in the bed．I was involved with zero exercise at that time and lived with very low energy and spirit every day．Then I finally felt sick of it and chose to add some movement to my life．
I changed my office job into a part-time one and applied for another part-time job working in a bar．So I made myself stand hours and walk around customers all the time．The first days were a"standing hell"．My feet were screaming"You fat lady!"all day and night．But I stuck through every minute I wanted to give up，telling myself"Everybody in this business stands full hours just fine．You can definitely do it too!Let's hang on for one week first．"
After that one week，though with sore muscles everywhere I still came up with the conclusion that，"This is actually bearable．"So I hung on another week，then one more after that…until it's been four months now and I feel as comfortable as a fish in its pond to stand 20hours a week in the bar．And I didn't only stand in the bar for those four months．It was just a small trigger that activated the rest of the revolution． I soon fell in love with bicycling．I rode my bicycle to work，to meetings and to many romantic spots in the town．I was on the road for a minimum of one hour every day．I also got myself involved in a"stand-up computer"project and was standing at the computer four hours every day on average．It has become my most comfortable position to play with the computer now．I also touched up my life with dancing and stretching．Whenever my body feels stiff I give myself a good stretching and a round of dancing too if the mood is there．
Basically I became quite an active person now and this is not at all hard as I imagined in my couch for the past years．I am so happy that I made the first tiny steps to walk out of my comfort zone．Soon I was catching up with the rhythms and running spontaneously．
So what is the challenge that you are afraid of？Face it now，conquer it and let it make you even stronger．
If you are too timid to speak up for yourself in daily life，then regardless of your fears，force yourself to say one word out of the heart every day．At first，you will only mumble nonsense and totally sound like a nerd．But just keep throwing the balls，you will eventually hit some targets and organize clear sentences．
If you are suffering in your current life but don't think you deserve a better one，then you will keep living in the terrible situation．To breathe new air，you need to step out of your dead zone．Once you cheer up and make the first courageous step，then adding a few more steps is not that a big deal and soon you will walk farther away from the cave you hated．
It is always easier to do nothing about the challenge and remain in the current status．But I strongly suggest you choose a harder choice，fight with your challenge and let it lift you to a higher position with more beautiful views．Once you get started with throwing a few bold punches into life，you will soon feel comfortable to box with those opponents you thought so tough and tall．And later you will get so good at your skills that you must call in stronger competitors to the ring to match the game and have more fun．Be that aspiring（有志向的）boxer in your life．
