    During the last ten years, our cities were full of cars, buses and trucks. Now the streets are completely
crowded and it is very difficult to drive a car along them. Drivers must stop at hundreds of traffic lights.
    What are our cities going to be like in ten or twenty years? Will many motorways (高速公路) be built
across them? With big motorways cutting across them, full of noisy, dirty cars and trucks, our cities are
going to be awful places. How can we solve the problem?
   There are some good ideas to reduce the use of private cars. In 1971, for example, the authorities (官方)
in Rome began an interesting experiment: passengers on the city buses did not have to pay for their tickets.
   In Stockholm (斯德哥尔摩) there was another experiment: people paid very little for a season ticket to
travel on any bus, trolley bus, train or tram all over the city. In many cities now some streets are closed to
vehicles (机动车) and pedestrians are safe there. In London there is another experiment: part of the street
is for buses only, so the buses can travel fast. There are no cars or taxis in front of them.

1. What does the writer worry about in a big city? The ___.

[ ]

A. number of traffic lights
B. shortage of buses
C. lack of motorways
D. traffic congestion (拥挤)

2. Which city once experimented on a completely free bus service? ___.

[ ]

A. London
B. Paris
C. Rome
D. Stockholm

3. Which city once experimented on a very cheap bus service? ___.

[ ]

A. London
B. Stockholm
C. Rome
D. None of the above

4. In many cities pedestrians are much safer because ___.

[ ]

A. no traffic is allowed in some streets
B. traffic is computer controlled
C. cars move very slowly
D. only one way streets are open to traffic

5. In Chinese "pedestrians" means___.

C. 旅客
D. 动物

It is December 25th, 2050. The people in the city are all celebrating Christmas. I’m the mayor of our city. My citizens* and I are holding a big party under the sea, though you wouldn’t believe it. But please do not feel excited, you should feel sad because we have to live under the sea. Because of the pollution, the earth has been completely destroyed, from top to bottom. The atmosphere* has no oxygen* and moisture*. As a result, the plants are burned by the strong sunlight with a great number of harmful rays. Of course, none of them are still alive. Not only no green, but also the temperature reaches about 121℃ all day even in winter because there is too much CO2 circling the earth.
On the land, there is no life. Luckily, the sea is not destroyed by human. So, we have to move into the sea. At the bottom of the water, people have built many new cities. There is a lot of advanced* equipment* in each city. Computers are used to control all the machines, even the people’s life. We can also make the seawater into fresh water. There are two machines making oxygen. If they stop working for only one minute, more than 10 million people will die.
The population of our city is over 30 million and, of course, it is quite crowded. We have lots of high buildings and bridges. The roads are wide, too. Our cars are miniature* UFOs, don’t be surprised, it is true. At the bottom of the sea you can’t see anything, because there is no light all day. However, we have advanced lighting equipment so that we can see the “sun” under the sea. Of course, the advanced lighting equipment is very expensive. And if it doesn’t work, we can see nothing under the sea. What should we do then?
【小题1】Where are they holding a big Christmas party?
