重庆市渝中区 2014 高考英语阅读理解 4 月训练题(15)及答案
【2013 界广东省湛江市二模】
The United States 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. Los Angeles is a big city

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,

times in the morning and late afternoon are called “rush

would decrease the amount of traffic. Also ,the money collected from
these tolls could be used to improve the roads and public transportation
system.
