About 700,000 new cars have been soldin India in the last twelve months, and about twice that many used cars have been traded. The countrys 35 million motorcycles and scooters make it the worlds largest two-wheel market. But because there are still big differences in peoples incomes, the roads are full of a whole variety of vehicles , lots of them not motorised. A ride with a taxi driver in New Delhi gives a flavour of a typical Indian-style traffic with all kinds of vehicle held up in city streets or in long lines onnarrow country lanes. Cars, lorries and buses back up behind a cart pulled by one animal or another. India has everything on the roads, the taxi driver says. You have to watch out for pedestrians, bicycles, carts, cows, donkeys and even elephants. Three things are recommended to drive here, a horn, brakes and good luck.

Given the hazards, its not surprising that special ceremonies are held for new car owners in which the steering wheel and the driver are both blessed. 3.The ancient Olympic Games_ were _ part of a religious festival in honour_ of _ the Greek god Zeus, the father of all Greek gods and goddesses.

He moved there after his wife died four years ago to be closer to his daughter，s family, and because his big detached house and garden were too much work for him as he got older. Its easier in the flat because the letting agent does everything that needs doing. The agent has had the roof repaired and got the gutter replaced, but at the moment John is not satisfied because the window frames need painting and the garden looks neglected.

John pays over1,500 a year for service and maintenance, and he thinks that its not good enough because the flats look shabby and a lot of things need repairing. His daughter, June, and her husband, Peter, on the other hand, have to do everything themselves or find builders to do it. They live in a large semi-detached house further out from the centre of London than John, but they are still near enough to see him often. They live in the suburbs with a nice garden where their children play. They moved there four years ago to have more space. The only drawback is that Junes husband has to commute into the centre of London every day, but, overall, they are happy with their decision.
