The most common traffic problem in cities around the world is traffic jams. Sao Paulo in Brazil has the world’s worst daily traffic jams. According to reports, the historical congestion record was set on June 1, 2012, with 295 kilometres of vehicle queues around the city during the evening rush hour. Some other big cities also suffer from serious congestion in the rush hour.
The main cause of this traffic problem is the increase of the population in big cities. So the number of people using the roads has risen several times. The second reason is that the roads are narrow and sometimes are not good enough. Also, many road users have no respect for traffic rules. As a result, this problem is getting worse and worse.

Vấn đề giao thông phổ biến nhất ở các thành phố trên thế giới là tắc đường. Sao Paulo ở Brazil có tình trạng tắc đường hàng ngày tồi tệ nhất thế giới. Theo báo cáo, kỷ lục tắc nghẽn lịch sử được thiết lập vào ngày 1 tháng 6 năm 2012, với 295 km phương tiện xếp hàng quanh thành phố trong giờ cao điểm buổi tối. Một số thành phố lớn khác cũng bị ùn tắc nghiêm trọng vào giờ cao điểm.
Nguyên nhân chính của vấn đề giao thông này là do sự gia tăng dân số ở các thành phố lớn. Vì vậy, số lượng người sử dụng các con đường đã tăng lên nhiều lần. Nguyên nhân thứ hai là đường hẹp và đôi khi không đủ tốt. Ngoài ra, nhiều người đi đường không tôn trọng luật lệ giao thông. Kết quả là, vấn đề này ngày càng trở nên tồi tệ hơn.
Read about traffic problems in two cities. Match the city with its problem.

A. Ho Chi Minh City |
In Ho Chi Minh City, it is not strange to see the sight of a street that is crowded with vehicles. People cannot move and their health is affected by polluted air from exhausted fumes. What are the reasons? The citizens in the city use many personal vehicles to go from one place to another. They aren't used to transporting by public transports. May be because the bus drivers are careless, impolite to them or the taxi fare is too high for some people.
Bangkok is world renowned for its terrible traffic problems, so getting around on the roads is a bit of a nightmare. In my opinion, there are 3 main causes of Bangkok traffic jams. First, the quality of public transportation is low. Bus is of low quality and causes congestion. Second, the BTS and MRT are not enough for users. Finally, the most important cause of traffic jam is car accidents. Bad bus drivers cause accidents frequently and make the road stuck for hours.

Read the passage and put a suitable word in each of the gaps. Traffic jams in Vietnam only frequently take place in Hanoi capital and Ho Chi Minh City. Vietnamese people seem to be accustomed to traffic congestion, even miss it whenever they go to other places. There is no fixed rule for the time the traffic jams to happen but it is worst during the rush hour when everyone is in a hurry to get to work or come back home. Apart from peak hours, the time between 9 am and 10 am and between 3 pm and 4 pm also witnesses long lines of vehicles, mainly motorbikes, struggling to get out of narrow streets. Whenever it rains, the traffic jam gets more terrible with the joining hand of flooding. Taxis are extremely hard to catch or wave during the downpour. However, it only takes about 30 minutes on average for a standstill and 2 hours to get through the worst, not really bad compared to that of other countries. While the rapid increase in car use coupled with the deterioration of roads caused by disordered planning make the matter worse, the most annoying thing about the traffic jam is the way people react when being stuck at the congestion. Most road users ride their motorbikes on the pavement rather than waiting calmly, or they constantly use their horns to hasten riders in the front, even shouting at them from time to time. More luckily, bicyclists can leisurely carry their "war-horses" on their backs and thread their way through messy matrixes.
