Every day hundreds of people pass through the San Francisco Ferry Building,a place where a variety of products and services are available. The San Francisco Ferry Building is the place where commuters catch their ferries at. It is also a place whose people come to walk and watch the activity on the bay. The area in which people shop for food is also where people can find restaurants and shops.
The Ferry Building began to be built at a time in 1875 there were no bridges. People had to take a train to the Berkeley or Oakland ferry terminals,there they would catch a ferry to San Francisco. When the Bay Bridge opened in 1936,the Ferry Building became an unnecessary place in that the ferries were left and forgotten. In the 1970s,when the traffic on the bridge made the commute difficult,the ferry boat service resumed. Now the Ferry Building serves as an activity center which San Franciscans shop,eat,catch transportation,and relax near the water.

“Community” is not a concept that is easy to define (定义) . In this essay I will examine what turns individuals into a community,and discuss some different types. I will also look at what all communities have in common,the benefits they offer and draw conclusions about their increasing importance.
The word “community” may make you think of traditional communities in the developing world,where large families live together. We may also imagine the neighbours as people who are happy to help out whenever it is needed. The 5纪r以?仏(老套的) view is that of a village,where people have little but can feel very rich because everyone takes responsibility for the welfare of the others.
On the other hand,there are other types of communities: ultramodern(超现代的) ones,where the community members are unlikely to have actually met each other. These are online communities,where people blog or chat about particular issues that are important to them. They come across others on websites and may develop a relationship there with like-minded people,discussing the same topics. The view is often that these are artificial connections between people who are,in effect,still isolated(孤立的) strangers.
In reality,the connections are real. Moreover,there are many types of communities in between these extremes: people who join clubs,who sign up with voluntary,political or other organizations,or who take part in group discussions in their local area. They may be campaigning about issues or simply getting together for companionship and support.
Human beings are social by nature,so it should not be a surprise that we organize ourselves in groups. However,there is more going on: these groups provide something that we cannot achieve on our own. The main benefit of being part of a larger group is strength in numbers. For example,we can access and share more information,we can take part in team sports,we can complain and campaign more effectively and even if we are just having a chat,online or in person,we can feel supported in whatever we do.
Whatever forms communities take,what defines them is the sense of identity and safety that they provide for their members: the knowledge that there are people who we have something in common with and who can be relied on when we need each other.
32. In traditional communities,people.
A. live in a large family
B. are wealthy but unhappy
C. help and care about each other
D. are isolated and don't have connections
33. According to the text,online community members .
A. develop a close working relationship
B. share opinions about issues on websites
C. communicate with each other in person
D. share the same interest but have no relations
34. Paragraph 5 mainly talks about .
A. the types of community
B. the culture of community
C. the benefits of community
D. the definition of community
35. Communities provide their members with.
A. a sense of identity and safety
B. a sense of social responsibility
C. chances of meeting new people
D. chances of developing their interests

A
We are sailing toward the San Bias Archipelago,a chain of more than 360 islands in the Caribbean Sea.
“There's a boat!” Our daughter Hayley shouts suddenly.
Three men,far out at sea,are in a canoe called a cayuco. We pull up near them and they offer to sell us a spiny lobster(龙虾) ，but they have not caught enough for each of us.
“Un momento,por favor [One moment,please]，” the man says.
He dives overboard,holding his breath,goes down 40 feet, and comes back up with another lobster in his bare hands!We buy the lobsters and visit with the men.
These fishermen are the Kuna Indians from the San Bias Islands. The Kuna Indians have made their homes famous because of their efforts to protect their rain forests,their independence,and their culture.
For more than 400 years,the Kuna Indians have fought to keep their traditional way of life. They,ve formed their own system of government and laws. They,ye kept the Kuna language,though many speak Spanish,too. And while visitors are welcome,non-Kuna people are not allowed to own land.
Once we are on the island,we visit the sahila,or chief. It is an important part of Kuna culture for a visitor to receive an invitation and pay a fee to the sahila before entering,his village. We walk around the village and look at the way the Kuna people live. Kuna villages vary in size. They can range from a few dwellings（住所） to large villages with.some modem conveniences.

Earlier today we read about Kuna foods and money. The Kuna eat a lot of fish,lobsters and coconuts （椰子) .The coconut is also used for money. Each coconut tree has a Kuna owner,so the coconuts cannot be taken or touched.
