1. The end of a long journey

Yesterday was an important day for Thomas Burns from Portsmouth. He retired after 45 years as a bus driver in the city. Here he writes about the changes he has seen over the years.

‘Over the years a lot of things have changed in Portsmouth and I think it’s more difficult to be a bus driver today than before. There are more cars, more cyclists, more traffic jams and more people in a hurry! I’ve seen a lot of changes in the town centre too. When I started you could drive along the High Street. Now you can’t. It’s for people on foot! There are lots of roads you can’t drive along.

Another change is that 40 years ago we had conductors. Conductors were people who worked on the bus too and they walked up and down the bus and sold the tickets. Today the driver has to sell tickets. Also, the conductors watched the passengers for any trouble. Today we have CCTV cameras instead! But a CCTV camera can’t tell a teenager to get off the bus!

The passengers haven’t changed a lot. I’ve met some really nice people and some very rude people too. But that’s life, isn’t it?’

* Are the sentences true or false?

1. People want to get to places quickly these days. _

2. There is more traffic on the roads today than before.

3. The city centre is the same as it was when Thomas started as a driver.

4. There is more trouble on the buses today than there was before. _

5. All Thomas’s passengers were polite. _

2. A near accident

Pam Tyler has just returned from a winter holiday and has a story to tell about a very near accident.

Pam travelled with her husband, Steve, and her two children, Kev and Lucy. They were very happy when they started the journey. ‘The children were so excited,’ says Pam. ‘Christmas with lots of snow. It was the perfect holiday!’

The Tyler family went by car and took the car ferry from England to Norway. ‘It was very cold,’ continues Pam. ‘And the children asked again and again, “Is it snowing in Norway?” When the boat arrived it was amazing. The snow was really heavy!’

They arrived at 6.30 in the evening and they had to drive for two hours to get to their holiday home. But first they had to drive through the town – on the right hand side of the road! Pam was the driver with Steve beside her and the children were in the back. At that time of the evening it was dark and snowy and it was difficult to see the road. Pam drove slowly. Suddenly she saw a red light and stopped quickly. She was just past the light.

Steve shouted, ‘Drive!’ ‘But it’s red,’ said Pam.

‘Just drive!’ Steve shouted. ‘Now!’

Pam drove and a few seconds later a tram passed behind them. The red light was there to stop the cars when the trams passed. In the snow Pam stopped the car after the light and she stopped ON the tram lines. Luckily, Steve saw the tram and saved their lives!

‘There aren’t any trams in my town in England,’ says Pam. ‘I didn’t know about the tram lines. We nearly died. We were very lucky. Of course, Steve drove for the rest of the holiday!’* Answer the questions.

1 Why were the children excited about the holiday?

_

2 What was the weather like when they arrived in Norway?

3 Why was it difficult to drive?

4 What did Pam see and what did she do?

5 Why did Steve shout ‘Drive!’?

It is not only of immense size, but is extremely accurate as well. Officials from Greenwich Observatory have the clock checked twice a day. On the B.B.C. you can hear the clock when it is actually striking because microphones are connected to the clock tower. Big Ben has rarely gone wrong.

Quite a number of things have been done tohelp solve traffic problems in Singapore. For example, motorists must buy a special pass if they want to drive into the downtown business district. They can go into the business district only if they have the pass displayed on their windshield.

Another thing Singapore has done is to make it more difficult to buy cars. People have to apply for a certificate if they want to buy a car. And the number of certificates is limited. Not everyone can get one. There is also a high tax on cars, so it costs three or four times as much to buy a car in Singapore as it does in, say, the United States or Canada.

Will people still read books 100 years from now? A few years ago, many people would have said no. It seemed likely that computers and the Internet would replace books. Now, however, most experts think that books are here to stay.

There are a number of reasons why computers will not replace books entirely. One reason is that books on paper are much cheaper than computers. And books do not need a power source. You can read a book for as long as you want and wherever you want. You never have to worry about losing power. Also, many people feel more comfortable reading woeds in a book than reading woeds on a computer screen because it is less tiring to the eyes.

Will books in the future be exactly the same as the books you can buy today? The answer to that question is no. In the future, you may only need to buy one book. With this one book, you will be able to read novels, plays, and newspapers. It will look like today's books, but it will be electronic.

One of the people working on the book of the future is Professor joseph Jacobson from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Professor Jacobson's electronic book will have a small button on the side. When you oress the button, woeds will instantlu appear on the page. When you want to read a different story, you can push the button again and a new story will quickly appear.

1. The phrase are here to stay in the first paragraph mostly means .......

2. Which of the following is true according to the passage ?

3. What will the book of the future look like?

4.The button on the side of the electronic book is used....

5.What is the main topic of the passage?

My hometown has changed a lot - it's defintely not (1) the same as it was before. It's not (2) as quite as it was 5 year ago. It' much more noisy, but I prefer it now. There are more shops and restaurants. The restaurants are (3) different from the ones we had before. Now we can eat many different kinds of food - Italian,French,and even Mexican!

There have been so many changes. Even the streets are not (4) as narrow as they were before. They are wider now to make space for the extra traffic.

One things hasn't changed though. The people here are as warm and (5) friendly as before. That's one thing that's (6) the same as it was before.

It is well known that the building development company Cityspace wants to knock down the existing seafront sports club in Layton and replace it with a leisure centre that will consist of a multi-screen cinema, restaurants and an entertainment centre. But a local action group has promised to fight the £30 million redevelopment of the sports club, which has provided family facilities for over 25 years.
The action group was set up three weeks after the project was announced. Members of the group
argue that the new centre will be too big and will totally change the way the town looks. They also
dislike the removal of sports facilities from the centre and the change to less healthy activities such
as video games and films. Apart from the size of the project, they say that the 550 parking spaces
provided will be too few and parking will become more difficult as a result.
Local hotel owners have welcomed the project, but the action group says that in general it will only
have a bad effect on the neighbourhood. According to one group member it will result in up to 4,000
people being around Layton seafront late at night. ‘A lot of old people and families live nearby,’ he
explained. A meeting is being held tonight to discuss the plans.

Được biết, công ty phát triển tòa nhà Cityspace muốn phá bỏ câu lạc bộ thể thao bên bờ biển hiện có ở Layton và thay thế bằng một trung tâm giải trí bao gồm rạp chiếu phim nhiều màn hình, nhà hàng và trung tâm giải trí. Nhưng một nhóm hành động địa phương đã hứa sẽ chống lại việc tái phát triển câu lạc bộ thể thao trị giá 30 triệu bảng Anh, nơi đã cung cấp các tiện nghi gia đình trong hơn 25 năm.
Nhóm hành động được thành lập ba tuần sau khi dự án được công bố. Các thành viên của nhóm
cho rằng trung tâm mới sẽ quá lớn và sẽ thay đổi hoàn toàn diện mạo của thị trấn. Họ cũng
không thích việc di dời các cơ sở thể thao khỏi trung tâm và chuyển sang các hoạt động kém lành mạnh hơn
như trò chơi điện tử và phim. Ngoài quy mô của dự án, họ nói rằng 550 chỗ đậu xe
được cung cấp sẽ là quá ít và do đó việc đậu xe sẽ trở nên khó khăn hơn.
Các chủ khách sạn địa phương đã hoan nghênh dự án, nhưng nhóm hành động nói rằng nhìn chung nó sẽ chỉ
gây ảnh hưởng xấu đến khu vực lân cận. Theo một thành viên trong nhóm, nó sẽ dẫn đến 4.000
những người xung quanh bờ biển Layton vào đêm muộn. Ông
giải thích : “Rất nhiều người già và gia đình sống gần đó . Một cuộc họp sẽ được tổ chức vào tối nay để thảo luận về các kế hoạch.
