The story goes that some time ago, a man punished (懲罰) his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll (卷) of gold paper. The family was not rich and he became angry when the child tried to decorate (裝飾) a box to put under the Christmas tree. However, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, “This is for you, Daddy.”

The man felt sorry for what he had done the day before, but felt angry again when he found out the box was empty. He shouted at her, “Don’t you know, when you give someone a present, there should be something inside?” The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and cried, “Oh, Daddy, it’s not empty at all. I blew kisses into the box. They’re all for you, Daddy.”

The father was shocked. He put his arms around his little girl and said sorry again and again.

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.

1.How many ways of travelling are mentioned in the passage?

A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five

2.The word “rush hour” in Chinese means _____________.

A.高峰時間. B. 匆忙時間 C. 沖刺時間 D. 繁忙時間

3.The fastest way to travel in New York City is ________________.

A. by bus B. by subway

C. by taxi D. by private car

4.From the last paragraph we know that in New York City ____________.

A. there is no “rush hour” from 9.am to 4 p.m.

B. traffic is heavy at noon.

C. most Americans have lunch at home.

D. people go to work and school at 9:00.
