Dear Sir,

I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport. Two buses travel along their route: the number 49 and number 16. But by the time the number 16 bus reaches Souk Road it is always full, so I can’t get on it. I have to wait for the number 49, because sometimes there are empty seats on it.

The timetable says that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?

The regulations (规章) say that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. Why do the half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?

The regulations say that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport. I counted the other passengers as they got off. There were 129 of them.

It is clear that our bus companies break the regulations and think little of their passengers. Can nothing be done to make your service better?

Yours,

Tired passenger

A. 20 B. 40 C. 129 D. 60

A. an airport worker B. a bus driver

When some plates(板块) of the earth move suddenly, an earthquake happens. Many earthquakes begin under the sea. Earthquakes may happen anywhere on the earth. They often happen near mountains.

During an earthquake, the shakings make rocks rise suddenly and even crack open. Houses fall, people are killed and hurt, and sometimes whole villages or cities are destroyed.

Can we do something to keep ourselves safe from earthquakes? Scientists have studied earthquakes and make maps that show “earthquake belts”. In areas in these belts, it’s possible for earthquakes to happen. In these areas we can build strong houses to fight against earthquakes.

In the future, scientists will be able to predict exactly when and where an earthquake will happen. They can also tell people what to do with it.
