     The world"s first subway was built in London in 1863. At the time, the government was looking for a way
to reduce traffic problems in the city of London. The poor areas of the city were so crowded with people that
it was almost impossible for horse carriages (the taxis of those days) to get around. The city officials were
interested in trying to make it possible for workers to live outside of London and travel easily to work each day.
If people had a cheap and convenient way that they could depend on to get to and from work, they would move
their homes outside of the city. This would help solve the problem of too many people living in the poor parts
of London. From these problems, the idea of the London Underground, the first subway system, was born.
     The plans for building the Underground met with several problems and delays, but the first track was opened
in January 1863. A steam train pulled the cars along the first underground track which was six kilometers (3.7
miles) long. About 30 000 people got on the subway the first day. Riders were treated to comfortable seats
(standing up while the train was moving was not allowed) and pleasant decorations inside each of the cars.
However, the smoke from the engine soon filled the air in the tunnels with ash and soot, as well as chemical
gases. Fans had to be put in the tunnels later to keep the air clean enough for people to breathe. Even with its
problems, riding the Underground did become popular. It carried nine million riders in its first year.
     Modem subways have come a long way since the early days of the London Underground. Today there are
94 large underground rapid transit systems around the world. The busiest of these subway systems is the
Tokyo Metro which opened in 1927. This efficient subway has two billion riders per year, and "pushers" work
on the platforms (站台) during busy traffic hours to help push riders onto trains. At times, subway cars have
been packed with up to 300 people! Shopping malls built in high traffic stations where riders move from one
train to another have also helped the popularity of subways in Tokyo. Many stations include underground
department stores, supermarkets, restaurants, and specialty shops. Shoppers never have to go above ground!
1. What problems led the British govemment to build the London Underground?
A. Pollution and overcrowding.
B. Traffic jams and pollution.
C. Overcrowding and traffic jams.
D. The subway problems.
2. The last paragraph is mainly about _____. 
A. the London Underground today
B. the Tokyo subway
C. subways around the world
D. problems with subways
3. What is probably the best title for this passage?
A. The Subway Nowadays
B. The Popularity of the Subway
C. The First Subway
D. Subway Then and Now

     You either have it, or you don"t-a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find
their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?
     Scientists say we"re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One
theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being
carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don"t use it, we lose it.
     "Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around," says Jim Martland, Research
Director of the project. "However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never
develop the skills." Jim Martland also says that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their
sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions: .
     ●If you are using a map, tum it so it connects with the way you are facing.
     ●If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks
on the route as you go away from your bike. When you retum, go back along the same route.
     ●Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls
in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any
landmarks to help you. Now you need never get lost again!
1. Could some people find their way across the Sahara without a map?

2. When do we get a sense of direction according to the passage?

3. Why don"t some people have the sense of direction?

4. What does the underlined word "landmarks" mean in English?

     Anger is a kind of feeling. Many things can make you angry. When your teacher gives you too much
homework, when your team loses an important game, when a friend borrows your favorite video game
and then breaks it, you can get really angry.
     Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe faster, your face tums
red,and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes, you hide your anger. For example,
you may hide it in your heart. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach
may hurt.
     In fact, it"s not good to hide your anger, and it"s important for you to get angry sometimes. But anger
must be let out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself.
     When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. It"s helpful to talk about your anger with
an adult,such as a parent,a teacher, etc. When you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away.

100; give someone a hug; go for a bike ride; think about good things, etc.

     If you stay in an Indian home, bring something from your home country as a gift. Although it is not
expected, it would be much pleasant. But find out the social position and religion of your hosts before
you choose the gift. A bottle of foreign whisky would be the perfect gift for some, but not at all suitable
for others. If you know the people you are going to stay with, it is a good idea to ask them what they
would like. Some things are just not available in India.
     It is not necessary to bring a gift when you are invited to dinner. After all, you are the honored guest.
Several years ago, it was almost unpleasant to bring sweets or a bottle of wine. But this is not true today.
Nowadays it is a custom which is becoming popular with many Indians. Fruit, flowers or a box of sweets
are perfect gifts, and will make no one unhappy.
     In all classes of society, both in the city and in the country, food is only taken to the mouth with the
right hand. This is the most important part of the etiquette (礼节) of eating in India. When you watch
Indians eat something, you will see that they keep their left hands on their legs.
     If you want to find a conversation topic in India, talk about families. Another useful subject to start with
is cricket (板球). But once you get to know a person better, any topic is acceptable. Indians love to talk
about politics and religion. They enjoy heated discussions. Conversation is an art form and people take the
time to really talk.
1. If you are invited for a meal at an Indian home, _______.
A. you should offer to pay for the food
