The bus is the most common form of urban transportation in Canada. To use public transportation, you must purchase a ticket or a transit pass. Transit passes allow you unlimited use of public transportation for a specific period (one month or more). They are usually cheaper than buying many tickets if you plan to use public transportation often.Transportation for people with disabilities Public transportation often has features to assist people with disabilities. In many cities and towns, there are also transportation services available specifically for people with limited mobility, such as specially equipped buses. You can find out about these services in the same way you would learn more about other public transportation options.Etiquette on public transportation When taking public transportation such as a bus or train, it is important to understand the unspoken rules of conduct in the shared space. Here are a few things to note: Be polite and respectful to others around you. For example, maintain an appropriate noise level when talking or making a phone call. If you are carrying a backpack or a large shoulder bag in a crowded public transit vehicle, keep it close to you, preferably at your feet to avoid hitting people with it as you walk by. Avoid pushing or touching others in order to make more room for yourself. Sometimes public transit can become very crowded, but it is important to keep calm and give others appropriate personal space. Have your proof of payment accessible in case you are asked to show it.1. What is the advantages of using transit passes over buying tickets? A.Lower costs. B. Safer trips. C.Longer service hours . D. More use of transport.2. How does the transportation system help people with disabilities? A. By offering fewer transportation options. B. By running special transport services. C. By limiting their mobility on city buses. D. By providing free rides in towns and cities.3. What is considered impolite on public transportation? A. Lowering your speaking voice. B. Placing backpacks at your feet. C. Having your proof of payment at hand. D. Staying close to other passengers.BThe elephant was lying heavily on its side,fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didnt stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati,the elephant princess.Parbati Baruas father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride anelephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant roundup-how to catch wild elephants. Parbati hasnt always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father,she was sent to a boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase,she says. But Parbati doesnt catch elephants just for fun.My work, she says,is to rescue man from the elephants,and to keep the elephants safe from man. And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly,the Indian elephant is angry: for many years,illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village,Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill. The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant.Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans,she said,as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant,happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!4For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to_.Aget long lasting excitement Bmake the angry elephants tameCsend them back to the jungle Dkeep both man and elephants safe5Before Parbati studied in a boarding school,_.Ashe had already been called an elephant princess Bshe learned how to sing love songsCshe spent her time hunting with her father Dshe was taught how to hunt tigers6Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because_.Athey are caught and sent for heavy work Bthey are attacked and their land gets limitedCillegal hunters capture them and kill them Ddogs often bark at them and chase themC While we all try to find happiness, sometimes we still end up feeling low.
