down all day long.
Sometimes a worker stands in the lift. He or she operates it up and down. In modern lifts there is no
worker. The people walk in. They know what floor they want. They push a button and the lift goes to
that floor. It is all very fast and easy.
Lifts are very important to us. Why? Think about a tall building. Maybe it has twenty floors. Maybe it
has fifty or more. Who can walk up all the stairs? Maybe people can climb them one time. Can someone
climb thirty floors to an office every day? Can small children walk up to their room on the twenty-fourth
floor? Can their mother and father carry food up all those stairs? Of course not.
We can have high buildings because we have lifts. We could not have all the beautiful tall buildings in
the world without lifts. They are really wonderful.
B. a small house
C. a small ladder
D. a small stair

Some people can"t stand garlic." That smell is too strong. And it doesn"t go away! There"s nothing worse
than garlic," they say. 1 Chester Aaron grows eighty-seven kinds of garlic on his farm. He wrote a book
called Garlic is life. It seems that people either love garlic or hate it.
2 The first wild garlic probably grew somewhere in western Russia. Later, travelers carried garlic to
China, Europe, and North Africa. Farmers began planting it over 5000 years ago. People in many countries
shared similar ideas about garlic. For example, it was believed that garlic made it possible for slaves to work
harder and longer. In Greece, the athletes of the first Olympic Games ate garlic, because they wanted to
become stronger and faster. 3 In some places, garlic was called "food for lovers" People added it to other
foods because it tasted good.
People in many cultures ate garlic when they got sick. 4 It was also supplied to help with different
kinds of pain.
Is eating garlic actually food for you, or should we just laugh at these old ideas? The truth is, doctors
today are telling their patients,"Eat garlic!" Recent research shows that garlic is good for your heart.
5 In many cultures, people trusted garlic to protect them from all kinds of bad luck. Garlic is great,
but it can"t do that!
B. It was supposed to make a cold or fever go away.
C. In China, people also used garlic to keep meat fresh.
D. Maybe you don"t know that garlic has a long history.
E. Recent research shows that garlic is bad for our health.
F. Other people say it tastes great and it"s good for you, too.
G.. However, we can"t accept every idea about garlic from the past.
jokes."I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled." Today
David wears casual clothes-khaki pants and sports shirt-to the office. He hardly ever wears necktie. "I"m
working harder than ever," David says, "and I need to feel comfortable."
More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work in the United
States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies
allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as "dress-
down Friday" or "casual Friday." "What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has
really become an everyday thing," said business consultant Maisly Jones.
Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that
it"s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. "A lot of young people don"t
want to dress up for work," says the owner of a software company, "so it"s hard to hire people if you have a
conservative dress code." Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are
wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers
said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale (士气). Only 4 percent of employers said
that casual dress has a negative impact on productive. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual
dress code helps them save money. "Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day," one person said.
"For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes."
B. he couldn"t stand a clean appearance
C. he wanted his clothes to look neat all the time
D. he didn"t want to spend much money on clothes
B. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes
C. he looks handsome in casual clothes
D. he no longer works for any company
B. Comfortable clothes make employees more productive.
C. A casual clothes code is welcomed by young employees.
D. All the employers in the US are for casual office wear.
B. Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 990s.
C."Dress-down Friday" was first given as a favor from employers.
D. Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people.
B. making employees more attractive
C. improving employees" motivation
D. making employees happier

been before. But just as in face-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be
followed when online.
The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. Imagine how
you"d feel if you were in the other person"s shoes. For anything you"re about to send: ask yourself, "Would
I say this to the person"s face?" If the answer is "no", rewrite and reread. Repeat the process till you feel
sure that you"d feel comfortable saying the words to the person"s face.
If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能反应) is to fire back in the same manner.
But try not to do so. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.
If it was caused by disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it.
Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.
If you do decide to tell someone in the chat room about a mistake, point it out politely. At the same time,
if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.
It is not polite such as their age, sex, and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you
are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don"t ask such questions.

increase in gas prices, teenagers chose to stay at home instead of going out of the town."I wish the prices
would _____.The expense of driving to places is affecting our daily life."said Alicia, still a senior at Enochs
High School in Modesto, California.
Alicia, who spent her summer at her dad"s house, said that there would be no point in getting a job."The
drive to my workplace is so long that I would hardly be making any profit because all my money would be
going toward gas,"she said.
Teenagers are now forced to give up the pleasure of driving around the town without purpose."Instead
of driving around looking for something to do, I now find myself planning the way in advance so I don"t
waste necessary gas," said Stephen Macko, a student at Davis High School in Modesto. What kinds of things
are teenagers doing in order to conserve gas? Alicia saves gas by doing all of her things at one time so she
doesn"t have to go home and leave again.
"I try to do it all in one trip so I don"t have to always be running around and wasting gas,"she said. "I know
that when I go to lunch with my friends, we make sure to go somewhere near all of our houses so we save
gas.""But it"s hard, considering I drive a big truck. I also try to get a lift from my friends when they are going
to places that I am going to."said Stephen. Some try not to accelerate too much. Teenagers will have to
continue changing their lifestyles unless the price of gas decreases. However, that might not be a bad thing.
