II. READING

1. Read the passage and answer the questions. Circle A, B, or C.

How can we solve the problem of traffic congestions in big cities? Governments have built highways, offered public transportation, etc. However, these traditional approaches are becoming expensive. Many experts now see intelligent transportation systems (ITS) as the solution. But how does ITS work? Using information technology (IT), intelligent vehicles and infrastructure broadcast and receive data from sensors, video cameras, radar, and satellites, etc. to improve traffic quality. Drivers receive messages on computers or mobile devices about accidents, travel times, alternative routes, and the like. These allow drivers to make better decisions. Managers of transportation infrastructure (roads, bridges, train stations, traffic signals, etc.) receive ITS data, then use it to control the system by changing traffic signal timing, broadcasting radio announcements, opening and closing roads and traffic lanes, responding to accidents and the like. Computers, rather than humans, make most of the decisions that control the system.

2. Read a passage about fossil fuels. Decide if the statements are true (T) or false (F). Circle T or F.

There are three major forms of fossil fuels: coal, oil and natural gas. All three were formed many hundreds of millions of years ago before the time of the dinosaurs – therefore we call them fossil fuels.

Fossil fuels take millions of years to make. But they are not unlimited. We are using up the fuels that were made more than 300 million years ago. They are not renewable like solar power, wind power, hydro power or biomass. Once they are gone they are gone. So, it’s best not to waste fossil fuels.

We can save fossil fuels by conserving energy. One simple way to do this is to turn off appliances, TVs and radios that we are not using. We can also turn off lights when no one is in the room. Another way is to go by bike or walk instead of driving cars or motorbikes.
