The words of Gandhi, Einstein and other great thinkers are to be quoted in service announcements on London’s Underground．

Transport for London has asked Turner Prize-winning artist Jeremy Deller to edit a list of mottos to be used by tube drivers．Gandhi’s “there is more to life than increasing its speed” and the artist Cezanne’s “we live in a rain-bow of chaos” are among the quotes．Deller hopes they will make passengers’ journeys a bit more thought-provoking(發(fā)人深省的)．

Deller’s original plan was to abolish all public announcements for a day．“It makes me feel annoyed,” he said．“It’s like some psychological warfare(戰(zhàn)爭 ) on the passengers．”

But his idea was refused by the manager of Transport for London, who instead agreed to the plan of replacing some announcements with something more human and attractive．

Sally Shaw, who is running the scheme for Transport for London, says it is part of an attempt to improve day-to-day interaction and rely less on automated announcements．

“I think everyone has their own little philosophy on their journeys．And if we can get more of that out in the air, that would be great,” she said．

 Susy Wells, one of the drivers to test the idea out on the London Underground, is also enthusiastic about it．

She said, “I like to make my own announcements and it’s nice to get passengers to think as well．”

What’s more, some quotes are helpful to the drivers．They help the passengers become more understanding about the drivers’ work．

The quotes such as Thomas Fuller’s “a stumble(絆腳) may prevent a fall” are popular for helping explain why a little inconvenience was sometimes necessary to keep the system safe．

53．The underlined phrase “tube drivers” probably means______．

     A．taxi drivers    B．subway drivers             C．truck drivers   D．bus drivers

54．Why did Deller want to abolish all public announcements on the underground?

     A．Because they cause a war among passengers．

     B．Because the public announcements make Deller tired．

     C．Because the public announcements are dull．

     D．All public announcements are not suitable for the passengers．

55．The reason why the sayings are to be quoted on London’s Underground is ______．

     A．that everyone has their own life motto

     B．that sayings are believed to be more human and attractive

     C．that sayings can help develop spiritual civilization in London

     D．that saying can make drivers think more

56．The best title of this passage would be _____．

     A．Changes on London’s Underground

     B．Culture on London’s Underground

     C．Some Quotes Seen on London’s Underground

     D．Introduction to London’s Underground
