They call New York “the Big Apple”. Maybe it isn’t exactly like an apple, but it is

certainly very big. There are too many people, that’s the problem. The streets are always full
of cars and trucks, and you can never find a place to park.
If you have enough money, you can take a taxi. New York cabs are yellow. They look
all the same. But the drivers are very different. Some were born and raised in New York, but
many are newcomers to the United States. A few drive slowly, but most go very fast. Cab
driving is a difficult job. It can be dangerous, too. Thieves often try to steal the drivers’
money. Drivers sometimes get hurt.
If you don’t want to take a taxi, you can go by bus or you can take the subway. The
subway is quick, and it’s cheap, but parts of it are old and dirty. Lights don’t always work
and there are often fires on the track. On some subway lines, there are new, clean, silver
trains. But you can’t see the color of the old trains easily. There is too much dirt and too
much graffiti, inside and outside.
1/ what is the problem of New York?
A. It has too many apples C. It is too big
B. It looks like an apple D. It is too crowded
2/ what does a “cab” mean?
A. a truck B. a bus C. a taxi D. a subway
3/ Cab drivers in New York
A. can be dangerous C. look the same
B. can be attacked by thieves D. were all born in New York
4/ The word “track” can best be replaced by
