2．Traveling by subway can sometimes be quite an adventure，especially during rush hour.There are the times when you have to avoid cups of coffee that could spill（㵐）on you.The smells of some passengers' food are very strong，too.According to the Beijing subway passenger regulations，which went into effect on May 15th，passengers except babies and the sick are no longer allowed to eat or drink on the subway.Violators（违反者）who do not stop after being asked to will be asked to get off.The violation will also be recorded in the violators' credit record.
Some support the rule.The reason is that the smell of food and drink can annoy other passengers. "The smell of food fills the carriage，causing people discomfort，especially in the hot summer，Besides，eating on the subway produces rubbish.And on subway trains，people often spill their drinks，" said Zheng Yiou，17，a student from Hefei.
However，others question this rule. "Some citizens live so far fro m their work places that they have limited time to have breakfast before they go to work.Eating while they travel saves them time and decreases the chance that they will be late for work，" Songlin，a 17-year- old student from Chengdu said. "And some people，like those with low-blood sugar levels，get sick if they can't eat when they must."
Other Chinese cities like Nanjing and Chengdu have similar regulations.Some foreign cities also ban eating and drinking on the subway.For example，eating and drinking have long been banned on the subway in Washington DC.Singapore fines people who eat or drink on the subway up to 500 Singapore dollars，which is RMB 2，417 yuan.
Chen Yanyan，a professor from Beijing University of Technology，believed we should consider the need of some people to eat or drink on the subway. "Commuters（上班族） and travelers are sometimes too busy to eat.Maybe we could learn from Tokyo，where there are many subway stations equipped with services，allowing passengers to eat and drink，" she said.

3．What is an accent（口音）？An accent is a flavoring to you that influences the sounds of words and sentences.In Birmingham you might hear "lake" sounding close to "like"，and in Ireland you might hear "this" sounding close to "diss".
Accents are related to social group.Everyone has an accent，and for every accent there are groups of people who react（反应）badly to it.These reactions arc the result of prejudice（偏见）-an unreasoned jumping to conclusions.
Everybody has prejudices about accents.I certainly do.I have held prejudices about other people's accents.But over the years，my experience of working with people from all kinds of backgrounds has led me to give up these prejudices.However，I still have prejudices that I find difficult to control.
Studies tell us that no accent is better than any other.But the reality is that many people judge others according to accents.
Jacob，Member of Parliament（议会），remembers when he first stood unsuccessfully for election in Fife，Scotland， "I gradually realized that whatever I happened to be speaking about，the number of voters in my favor dropped as soon as I opened my mouth."
And sonic people change their accents to sound more refined（文雅的）when talking to people outside their circle of family and friends.
Sky News ran a report recently in which an 18-year-old woman was trying to sound less posh（上等人的），that is speaking non-standard English，because she didn't like the strangers telling her that she must be rich and from a famous family.
Lastly，it's worth being reminded that people can have an accent and still be recognized.

B．Accents are something that everyone can have.
C．Accents are something that you can meet everywhere.
D．Accents have a long root in people that causes serious social issues.

C．he was quite unpopular among English people
D．he was unable to make himself understood because he had an accent

B．Because she pretended to be well-educated.
C．Because she just wanted to make herself look ordinary.
D．Because she wanted to learn the upper-class British accent.
（4）What does the underlined word "recognized" mean？

Finally，the town's richest man rose and said， "I can give this child all the advantages that you have mentioned，money and everything that money can buy."
