11、t. It is nothing for a big, strong schoolboy to elbow an elderly woman aside in the dash for the last remaining seat on the tube or bus, much less stand up and offer his seat to her, as he ought. In fact, it is saddening to note that if a man does offer his seat to an older woman, it is nearly alway

12、s a continental man or one from the older generation.This question of giving up seats in public transport is much argued about by young men who say that, since women have claimed equality, they no longer deserve to be treated with courtesy, and that those who go out to work should take their turn in

13、 the rat race like anyone else. Women have never claimed to be physically as strong as men. Even if it is not agreed, however, that young men should stand up for younger women, the fact remains that courtesy should be shown to the old, the sick and the burdened. Are we really so lost to all ideals o

14、f unselfishness that we can sit there indifferently reading the paper or a book, saying to ourselves “First come, first served, “ while a gray haired woman, a mother with a young child or a cripple stands? Yet this is all too often seen.Conditions in travel are really very hard on everyone, we know,

15、 but hardship is surely no excuse. Sometimes one wonders what would have been the behavior of these stout young men in packed refugee train or a train on its way to a prisoner camp during the war. Would they have considered it only right and their proper due to keep the best places for themselves th

16、en?Older people, tired and irritable from a days work, are not angels at all. Many a brisk argument or an insulting quarrel breaks out as the weary queues push and shove each other to get on buses and tubes. One cannot commend this, of course, but one does feel there is just a little more excuse.If

17、cities are to remain pleasant places to live in at all, however, it seems urgent, not only that communications in transport should be improved, but also that communication between human beings should be kept smooth and polite. All over cities, it seems that people are too tired and too rushed to be

18、polite. Shop assistants wont bother to assist, taxi drivers shout at each other as they dash dangerously round corners, bus conductors pull the bell before their desperate passengers have had time to get on or off the bus, and so on and so forth. It seems to us that it is up to the young and strong

19、to do their small part to stop such deterioration.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, we could expect good manners from _.A. Englishmen in LondonB. a man from FranceC. men in big modern cities in EnglandD. men only in metropolitan cities（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).What is the writers opinion concerning

24、recent years, we have seen great progress in house building. The type of houses found in a certain part of the world depends to a certain extent on the building materials available there. Countries where stone is abundant tend to have more stone houses than a place where there is plenty of timber fo

25、r example. However, climatic conditions affect the houses built to a greater extent.In equatorial countries like Singapore and Malaysia, two main factors are responsible for the type of houses built: the heat of the sun and the fierceness of rainstorms. Our houses are light and airy but have steep r

26、oofs. In some places, houses are built on stilts because they may be in lowlying areas which get flooded easily.In a hot and dry country such as Arabia, the houses are often box-shaped. They have thick stone walls which are painted white. White surfaces radiate heat while dark surfaces absorb it. Th

27、e houses have no windows, only gaps with shutters over them. Even the door openings are very small and narrow, it is cool inside such houses. The roofs are also flat, so that when the sun goes down, one can sit on the roof and catch any cool breeze that is blowing. Sometimes, a water tank may be pla

28、ced on the roof to catch the little rain that falls.In cold regions, where there is heavy snow, the roofs of the houses slope steeply so that the snow can slide off easily. If the roofs were fiat, the snow would build up and the roofs might cave in under the weight. The houses also have thick stone

29、walls so that the cold is kept out.Some countries are more likely to be affected by earthquakes. In such places, the houses are made of light building materials. If the houses collapse in an earthquake, few people will get hurt and less damage is caused.In some parts of the world, people take their

30、homes along with them as they travel. These people are called nomads. The Bedouins of Arab lands wander over the desert, setting up tents wherever they stop to rest.（分数：10.00）(1).Houses in equatorial countries _.A. are light and airy B. have steep roofsC. are always built on stilts D. are built to s
