It is almost five years since I begin to learn English. I’m glad to say I’m getting along good with it. But first I came across a lot of difficulties. I couldn’t pronounce English words well, so could I remember the words I had learned. I couldn’t even understand that the teacher had said in class. When I almost lost heart, the teacher told me, “Keeping on, and you’ll do well.” I was greatly encouraged. I started working hard at English. Under the help of him and my classmates, I’ve made a great progress. I am very pleasing and I’ll work even hard in future.

Have you heard about “Survival Holidays”? It is for children to go into the lonely place for exciting activities. Now about 1,100 companies are allowed to take children into the great outdoors without their parents.
The reason why people like “Survival Holidays” is that they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer games. “Survival Holidays” gives them an important change.

Children don’t know what to do when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger. Even slight danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.
Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in dangerous times.

The United States of America is faced with serious traffic problems. Too many cars travel on the freeways to and from the city. This heavy traffic causes delays and lots of pollution from cars that are using their engines but not moving anywhere. Many cars going nowhere is called a “traffic jam”.
While many cities in the United States have traffic problems, some of the worst are in Los Angeles, California, which is a big city with a large downtown area. One of the reasons why there is so much traffic is that few people use public transportation to get around.
Experts say one possible solution to the traffic problems in Los Angeles would be to make people want to use the public transportation system of buses instead of their own cars. People say the buses should be made easier, faster, less costly and more dependable than driving a car.
One suggestion is to reduce the cost of taking the bus. Also, Los Angeles could make the buses easier for people to use. The buses could travel to more places in the city. And there could be more special lanes on the freeways that only buses could drive in. These changes would make taking the bus faster and easier than driving a car.
Other experts have said that the best way to ease traffic problems is to charge people money to drive on the freeways. These charges, or tolls, would be for the most crowded roads. The tolls would be in effect during the times of a day when most people drive to work and home. These times in the morning and late afternoon are called “rush hour”. People would try to avoid driving on these roads, which would decrease the amount of traffic. Also, the money collected from these tolls could be used to improve the roads and public transportation system.
1.What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Money charged when driving cars.
B. Causes of the heavy traffic jams.
C. Reasons to take public transportations.
D. Solutions to solving traffic problems.
2.Why does Los Angeles have some of the worst traffic problems?
A. Because it is a very big city with a large population.
B. Because most people like to get around by car.
C. Because public transportation is very popular there.
D. Because there are not enough roads there.
3.By marking out more special lanes on the freeways, they hope ________.
A. buses can travel to more places in the city
B. private cars can run much faster on them
C. buses seldom get stuck in the traffic jams
D. passengers can get on and off the buses easily
4.If people are charged on the most crowded roads during “rush hour”, ________.
A. less air pollution would be produced
B. there would be no traffic jam
C. the freeways would be more crowded
D. the number of cars on them would be smaller
