题目内容
7、The Golden Gate Bridge joins the beautiful city of san Francisco with the suburbs (郊区) to the north. Each day, about one hundred thousand cars cross the bridge, taking people to and from the city. More than half of them cross the bridge during the morning and evening rush hours, as a result, the trip is not pleasant.
Now, however, there is at least one group of happy commuters ( 经常往返者). These are the people who travel under the bridge instead of on it. They go to work by boat and enjoy it so much that most of them say they will never go by car again.
The boat they take is the large, quiet, comfortable “Golden Gate”. Commuters can enjoy the sun on the boat. In the morning they can have breakfast in the coffee shop, and in the evening they can have a drink in the bar while they are looking at San Francisco’s famous scene and the nearby hills.
The trip takes only thirty minutes and is not expensive. But best of all, being on a boat seems to make people feel more friendly towards each other. Two commuters who met on the “Golden Gate” have already got married.
Because the boat had been so successful, there are plans to use other, still larger boats. There is also a plan for a high-speed boat that will make the trip in only fifteen minutes. Not everyone is happy about that. “A lot of people don’t want to get the trip faster,” said one commuter, “They feel that an hour is just enough time to rest.”
1. Over ______ cross the Golden Gate Bridge during rush hours every day.
A. 100,000 people B. 50,000 people C. 100,000 cars D. 50,000 cars
2. Crossing the Golden Gate Bridge by car is not pleasant because _______ .
A. it takes people 30 minutes
B. The Golden Gate Bridge is very long
C. the bridge is crowded with cars, buses and trucks
D. most of the car owners can not enjoy the beauty of San Francisco
3. Which of the following statements is NOT true? ______
A. Going to work by boat doesn’t cost too much.
B. Some people like to go to work by boat because they can enjoy the beautiful scene of the city.
C. It takes fifteen minutes for people to go to work by boat.

4. In the future, _____.
A. larger boats will be used to carry commuters
B. a big coffee shop will be built
C. more and more people will get married on the boat
