On 34th Street, buses average about four miles an hour. For those in a hurry, pretty much everyone here, its an icy pace for a crosstown trip. Janette Sadik-Khan, the citys transportation commissioner, is proposing an interesting fix for 34th Street. The city plan would close 34th Street to non-bus traffic in the block between the Empire State Building and Macys. On the rest of the street, cars would move one way only. It would take getting used to, but for bus passengers, the city says there are more than 40,000 a day on public, tour or commuter (通勤) buses along 34th Street. The plan should cut the commute by up to 35 percent. People in other vehicles or about 10 percent of the human traffic would have to zig and zag (锯齿形) to get through this section of the city. It is probably fair to say that most are not particularly pleased about the whole concept. So the city needs to answer important questions. Will this unrest mean more traffic on side streets that are already unbearably crowded? Will deliveries be limited to the daybreak hours? Will Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Ms. Sadik-Khan be willing to change or drop the plan if it simply wont work? The Bloomberg administration has worked to improve bus traffic around the city. An experiment to speed up city buses along Fordham Road in the Bronx has already reduced travel time and increased passengers number. Urban planners have been studying the citys crosstown problems since the first traffic jam. Robert Moses at one point proposed a major highway just south of 34th Street, part of which would go through an office building. The question is still whether it will really make it easier to operate in Manhattan. 1. Whats the first paragraph mainly talk about? A. Traffic in Manhattan is much too bad. B. New Yorkers enjoy playing jokes about their buses. C. People are hard to cross 34th Street. D. An interesting fix for crowded street is being made. 2. How many measures would be taken in order to improve the traffic situation in Manhattan according to this plan? A. 2B. 3C. 4D. 63. Whats the purpose of the experiment by the Bloomberg administration? A. To improve traffic jam. B. To reduce travel time. C. To increase ridership. D. To relieve traffic pressure. 4. According to this passage, whose proposal might be difficult to becarried out? A. Janette Sadik-Khan.B. Robert Moses.C. Michael Bloomberg.D. Ms. Sadik-Khan.【参考答案】7.ACDB 阅读Yao Yunchun, a 24-year-old author who frequently shops online in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, has never been so impatient for her parcels as she is now. She has been counting every day while she waits for the products she ordered to arrive, as many deliveries have been delayed over the past month. “It took more than a week for one of my parcels to arrive from Beijing while, in the past, it took only four days,” said Yao. She is just one of the many who like shopping on Taobao. com, the countrys largest online shopping site, which has posted apologetic announcements to customers for the delays in deliveries. “Many parcels are still at the airport and cannot be delivered on time, but I think I will do my best.” Taobao clothes retailer (零售商) iM Shop said on its website. Meanwhile, major express delivery companies in China have put up notices saying they are ready to cope with the delay in recent days. “It was mainly caused by a big increase in online shopping orders because of discounts offered by e-commerce companies,” said Chen Shousong, an analyst with domestic research company Analysys International. Taobao Mall, the countrys largest business-to-customer shopping site by market share, for example, rolled out a large-scale discount on November 11 in which 150 brands sold their products at half price. The discount attracted the attention of many e-shopping enthusiasts who spent 936 million yuan ($142 million) in just one day. The recent shortage of diesel oil, which restricts delivery vehicles capacity, and bad weather conditions in North China, also added to an already overloaded express delivery market. Bottlenecks in delivery often appear before long holidays, such as the coming Christmas and New Year holidays and the Chinese traditional
