Vicky Zhao is from the mainland working in Hong Kong. For her, one thing she can't stand 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 24yearold 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 stations 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.

A. comes from Hong Kong

C. wants to be a patient person

Graffiti is a common feature of most Western cities. The word graffiti was from the Greek word, graphein, which only meant writing. These days, however, the word means drawing or writing on the walls of buildings, or the public transportation, such as trains or buses.
Graffiti, as a form of expression, was born in New York during the 1960s and 1970s. At that time, a new modern culture about city life appeared. Graffiti was a written form of expression of that life. Later, it was mixed with a musical form called hip-hop that was another expression of the city life.
At first, graffiti artists used pens. But then, with the development of graffiti, they became experienced. They turned to using spray paint (喷漆罐). Spray paint allowed them to draw a greater area. And it also allowed them to work quickly.
At present, different people have different ideas about graffiti. Some people say it makes the cities dirty. It isn’t allowed by many local governments in America. The governments spend more than a million dollars a year cleaning graffiti. The money, they say, could be better spent on health or education. Other people think it is a form of art. In fact, the works of some famous graffiti artists can be found in museums, galleries, and art books.
1.Which is the present meaning of the underlined word “graffiti” now?
A. 书法 B. 沙画
C. 涂鸦 D. 油画
2.How many forms of expression of city life are mentioned in the second paragraph (段落)?
A. One. B. Two.
C. Three. D. Four.
3.Why did graffiti artists use spray paint?
A. Because they could work quickly.
B. Because they could spend less money.
C. Because they could paint a smaller area.
D. Because they could express themselves clearly.
4.What’s the article mainly about?
A. The meaning of graffiti.
B. Different expressions of graffiti.
C. Different attitudes (态度) towards graffiti.
D. The history and the development of graffiti.
