     A lift is very useful.It looks like a small room. It goes up and down all day. Sometimes a worker

stands in the lift. He or she operates (操作) it up and down. In modern lifts there's no worker. People

walk in. They know what floor they want to go. They push a button (按钮) and the lift goes to that floor.

It's very fast and easy.

     Lifts are very important to us. Why? Think about a tall building. Maybe it has twenty floors. Maybe it

has fifty or   (a)   .Who can walk up all the stairs (楼梯)?

     Maybe people can climb them    (b)   .Can someone climb thirty floors to an office every day? Can

small children walk up to their room on the twenty-four floor? Can their mothers or father carry food up

to all those stairs? Of course not. We can have very high buildings because  we have lifts. We could not

have all the beautiful tall buildings without lifts because it is too tired for people to climb the stairs every

day.
