 children hiding beneath the vehicle before starting the engine.
 • In Moscow, it’s all about cleanliness - police impose fines on anyone with a dirty car.
 • In Jasper Gates, Canada, a dumb law forbids drivers from going faster than a horse or carriage
KỸ NĂNG ĐỌC (READING SKILLS)
I - Read the passage and choose the best option to answer each of the following questions.
In the UK, bus journeys are just boring and simply a necessity. This public means of transportation is 
often convenient when you live or work in the city centre, as you can avoid traffic jams by moving very 
quickly in the bus lanes, and do not have to pay to park the car. After all, though, taking the bus is just a 
necessary and tedious part of life: you board the bus, pay the driver and sit down or find a place to stand. 
Very boring.
In Latin America, however, bus trips can be very lively. For a start, long-distance buses put on films so 
that you have entertainment for at least some of the journey. Naturally, local transport does not show 
films but drivers usually switch on the radio and that can be a great way to hear new songs and new styles 
of music. Therefore, taking the bus doesn’t sound like fun but it is much more exciting than any UK bus 
journey.
