B
You may ride on your bicycle in a rush to get to school every morning.You may fight to get a bit of space on a bus or on the subway.You may also watch taxis crawl their way through traffic jams.
No matter where you are，all big cities around the world have traffic jams these days.But although they all have their problems, many cities also have a type of transport that has become a cultural icon (文化标识)．
In London to avoid (避免) the traffic above ground，people use the “underground”， also called the “Tube”．The city has the oldest and most complicated (复杂的) underground railway system in the world and is the pride of many Londoners. With 12 lines and 275 stations across the city，the Tube, is normally the quickest and easiest way of getting around London. In London, you are never far from a Tube station.
New York is famous for its Yellow cabs. They serve as a quick and easy way of getting across Manhattan, where the subway doesn't take you everywhere. Stopping a cab is easy; just stick out your arm like you do in any city. But，with over 12,000 yellow cabs in the Big Apple, they also cause traffic jams.
Since 1873 when the first cable car started public service, the slow and noisy vehicle has been a symbol of San Francisco. Although once damaged by a serious earthquake and challenged (挑战) by cars, it is never caught in traffic jams and provides better views than the subway.
But there are no such symbols in Los Angeles. If you visit you'd better rent a car.The city's public transportation is terrible. It can take hours to get across town by bus. The subway covers just a small part of the city centre. The light rail line only runs between the Long Beach hotel area and the city centre. That's why Angeles love their private cars more than any other people in the world.
5．If you have a chance to London and want to avoid the traffic jam, you'd better ________.
A．ride vehicle B．take a taxi
C．use underground D．rent a car
解析：选C。推理判断题。根据短文第三段可知：在伦敦，为了避开地面拥挤的交通，人们都会选择乘坐地铁。它包括12条线路和275个车站，是畅游伦敦最快捷简便的途径。
6．Which type of transportation has become a cultural icon of the Big Apple?
A．Noisy vehicle. B．Cable cars.
C．Subway. D．Yellow cabs.
解析：选D。推测题。根据第四段可知：纽约最著名的交通工具是黄色出租车。坐这种出租车出行是快速简便的方法。你只需一招手便可以打到出租车，十分简单。据此可以推测“黄色出租车”是被称作“大苹果”的纽约的“文化标识”。
7．People in Los Angeles like to hire private cars because of the following EXCEPT that ________.
A．the public transportation is terrible
B．it is not expensive to take a private car
C．the underground railway covers a small part of the city center
D．people have to spend hours getting across the Los Angeles
解析：选B。事实判断题。根据短文最后一段可知：洛杉矶这个城市公共交通状况糟透了。坐公交车穿越整个城市需数个小时。地铁只覆盖了市中心的一小部分。因此，洛杉矶市民比世界上其他人都喜欢私家车。
8．The passage mainly tells us ________.
A．how big cities in the foreign countries keep on moving
B．how people in the city avoid the traffic jams
C．why London has the oldest and complicated subway
D．why people call New York the Big Apple
解析：选A。主旨大意题。根据短文第一、二段可知：本文的中心话题是世界上所有的大城市现在都有交通堵塞问题。为解决这一难题，作者列举了伦敦、纽约、旧金山和洛杉矶等一些大城市的做法。由此可得知答案。
