Before the elevator was invented in the late 1800s，buildings were much smaller and lower，as people did not want to walk up and down stairs(楼梯)all day．With the invention of the elevator came high-rise buildings and skyscrapers．
Some people find elevators make them a little uncomfortable because there are many people all standing close in a small room．It is best just to relax and enjoy the ride．
When the elevator doors open，stand aside and let everyone out before you try to get in．Even if you are in a hurry，it’s impolite to push someone so that you can get into an elevator．
Don’t stare at(盯着看)people or stand too close．Try to keep your eyes looking ahead or you could make others feel nervous or uncomfortable．
If you have to move past people to get out of the elevator，say“Excuse me，please”or“I’m sorry”rather than just push them out of the way．Others will think you’re welcome if you show some politeness．
If you are standing close to the buttons(按钮)，ask others what floors they are going to and press the buttons for them．This is considered to be polite．
In case of emergency(紧急情况)，follow the instructions written inside the elevator and try to keep others calm．
The elevator was invented________．

Before the elevator was invented，buildings were________．

The underlined word“skyscrapers”means“________”in Chinese．

There is a famous English saying“You are what you eat”，and it means what you put in your mouth will become part of you．Many experts(专家)use it to tell people it’s important to have a good eating habit．For example，too much sweet food makes a person overweight．To avoid being fat，kids are told to keep off sweet food．However，a team of American scientists have discovered something new about eating sweet food．
“When we say some people‘sweet’，we mean they are kind and friendly to us．Perhaps this word can help us learn more about people’s feelings and acts，”said Brian Meier，a scientist from the study team．“Taste is something we experience every day．What we have done is to find whether we can know someone’s character and behavior depending on their taste．”
In one of their experiments，college students were asked questions about their character—whether，for example，they were soft-hearted or not．Then they were asked to make a list of their favorite food．According to their answers，the scientists found that the students who liked sweet food were nicer．
In their another experiment，the scientists found that people who preferred sweet food such as cookies and chocolate were more willing to help other people in need，and those who ate non-sweet food such as chips weren’t．For example，people with a sweet tooth were more likely to volunteer to clean up their city，visit sick children in the hospital and so on．
The result of the experiments is that people’s helpfulness or being nice has something to do with their taste for sweet food．So eating sweet food is a useful way to make people nice and helpful．Next time，try some ice cream．
The underlined word“it”refers to(指代)________．

According to the result of the experiments，sweet food makes people________．

The scientists found that the people who preferred________were less helpful．

It can be learnt from the passage that________．
