Section 59
Transport

1 They say that space travel is the safest form of transport.
2 However, most of us will not experience that in our life time.
3 Flying is also quite safe compared to other forms.
4 People get a little nervous the first time they fly.
5 In airports, everything is written in the local language; and in international airports, in English as well.
6 Airport’s staff are usually very helpful and friendly too.
7 With the improvement in infrastructure in most countries, road and rail travel are becoming much more efficient.
8 High ways, motor ways and freeways make road travel very convenient.
9 Modern high-speed trains ensure quickness between cities.
10 In some large cities, there are underground rail systems called metros.
11 American cities call these subways, but in Europe, subways are for walking under the main roads.
12 As people get more concerned about inner city pollution from traffic, public transport becomes more crucial.
13 Making buses, taxis and trains cheaper and more efficient will get more people to use them in stead of using their cars.
14 Nowadays, people can be penalized for having just one person per car in the city.
15 Like many things today, transport is changing due to environmental pressures.
