E. READING

I. Read the passage and choose the best answers to the questions.

London is the capital city of the United Kingdom. There are a lot of cars in the city. People go

everywhere by car, so traffic in the city centre is heavier than that in the suburbs. It is harder to find a place

to park a car than to do it in other areas. The public means of transport is cheaper than cars but the

Londoners prefer their own cars. Moreover, there are more and more tourists and visitors coming to

London for sightseeing or shopping. At weekends, the streets are noisier and busier than they are on

weekdays. Now, traffic jams are worse than ever before.

Although the living cost in the suburbs and the countryside is cheaper than that in the city centre,

most young people prefer living in the city centre. London is richer than other cities in the United Kingdom,

but it is more polluted because of the city Industry, vehicles, and plenty of people.
