题目内容
9."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 (挡住) 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.

分析 翻译:
赵维姬来自内地在香港工作.对她来说,她唯一不能忍受的是人们站在地铁站自动扶梯的反面."自动扶梯帮助我们行动更快并且节省时间.这不是一个休息的地方,"24岁的女孩说,"我经常在繁忙的时间看到游客在自动扶梯上带着他们沉重的行李箱挡住路或在上面交谈.这让我很生气."她说.认为她不是有耐心的类型,赵说在香港比在内地的城市的人们往往不注意"站在右边,走左边"的标识好多了.规则"站在右边,走左边"的原因似乎很清楚,即使你想休息一下,等你上来或者下去时,你还是应该考虑其他人,并把足够的空间留给匆忙的人,这样他们就可以坐上火车.但是,站在自动扶梯上的人告诉行人不要那么不耐烦.在关于自动扶梯的规则的最近的一个故事里,一个旁观者说,"如果十万火急,为什么不走楼梯呢?"许多城市的自动扶梯,包括伦敦的和北京的,用"站右边,走左边"的规则,加快人行走的流量.(在澳大利亚的城市如悉尼,你应该相反站在左侧.)但一些城市出于安全原因禁止人们在自动扶梯上行走.在香港的地铁站有人被要求在自动扶梯上"站好".即使这样,大多数人遵守"站右边,左行边"的规则.无论你是生活还是访问的这个地方的电梯的规则是什么,大多数人都正在做什么并且总是注意别人,彼此之间留下足够的空间,不要停留在自动扶梯末端,如果有人阻碍你的路,一句简单的"对不起"足够了.
解答 48.B.根据语境For her,one thing she can't stand is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator (自动扶梯) 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是一个24岁的女孩.故选:B
49.D.根据语境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.可知是在香港建议人们不要在自动扶梯上移动.故选:D
50.C.根据语境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.可知作者告诉我们要考虑其他人的感受.故选:C
51.根据语境Many cities'escalators,including London's and Beijing's,use the"stand right,walk left"rule to speed up the movement of people.和文章大意可知题目是正确的自动扶梯使用方式.故选:A
