VII. Read the following passage, make up questions and answer them.
Why do the English drive on the left hand side of the road ?
There are two conflicting theories that account for this habit. According to Mr.C.S Forester, the custom of
driving on the left dated back to the period when many Londoners went to and fro on horseback. A horse is
always mounted from the left side, so a man coming out of a house or shop or tavern would find it convenient to
aim his horse toward the left so as not to walk into the mud or slop of the street to mount. And from this practice
came the custom of bearing to the left in traffic. According to an author of a guidebook, it was the Pope and
Napoleon Bonaparte that were responsible. Before the Pope’s visit to Paris, there had been no rule about the
movement of traffic. When the Pope came to visit Paris, the authorities decreed that the Parisians should ride or
drive on the right hand side of the street, leaving the left hand side clear for the movement of the papal carriage.
Thus a custom was born. When Bonaparte came along, he conquered country after country and put in force the
right hand rule in those lands. Hating Napoleon, the British reversed the custom out of sheer perversity.
