From London to New York, from Hong Kong to Moscow, subways are an important way of transportation．Traffic in modern cities is often quite heavy, and it can sometimes take hours to cross a busy city in a car or bus．Subways help solve that problem, since they don't have to stop at traffic lights, and hundreds of people can take a subway train together．
In larger subway systems, such as Mexico City's, there are lines that go far beyond the city centre．In this way, people living in the suburbs can take a train to work．This reduces(减少)the traffic entering and leaving a city．It also helps reduce air pollution, a big problem in many cities．Finally, subways are usually cheaper．Basically, in a city with a subway, everybody wins!

So they move out. Some don’t move very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities. Other people move to real countryside, with sheep, cows and horses, and green fields! There, they start new lives and try to make new friends.
Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy. After two or three years, many people feel that it was a big mistake. There isn’t much to do. Country people are very different and aren’t always friendly.
As a result, quite a lot of people move back to the city. “It’s wonderful to see crowds in the streets and cinema lights,” they say. “I’m so glad I’m back in the city!” (203)

New York City is a very large city with 8 million people. How do so many people move on their way to work and school?
In New York you can travel by subways, bus, taxi and private (私人的) car. The subway runs on the railroad lines under the city. It crosses the city at different points and goes to all parts of the city. Travelling by subway is the fastest way to get around the city.
The second way to travel is by bus. It is a slower way to travel.
You can also travel by taxi. This is very expensive, but the taxi will take you to every place you want to go to. If traffic is heavy, the taxi will be slow. During the mornings and afternoons, there is the “rush hour”. This is the time when the traffic is very heavy with people going to and from work..
The last way is to use your private car. It’s not good to drive during the “rush hour”. If there is an accident on the road, you will have to wait for a long time.
The best time to travel is from 9 a.m to 4.pm . Traffic will be less crowded during this time because most people are already at school or at work at that time.
