A
Tokyo may be one of those places that you love and hate (憎恨) at the same time.
In Tokyo,there are too many cars. Tokyo drivers often spend a long time in the busy
street,just like drivers in London,Paris and New York.
During the day,most people go to work by train. Six million train tickets are sold
out every year in Tokyo. Trains arrive every two or three minutes,but they are always
crowded. Though they are crowded,they always leave and arrive on time. You may
see somebody reading a newspaper on the train in some countries. But on Tokyo
trains,everybody seems to be sleepy.
There are a lot of people in the street and sometimes it is really difficult to walk.
The worst time in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is because the nightclubs(夜总
会) are closed at that time and everybody wants to go home then. There are about 35,
000 nightclubs in Tokyo and usually the business of them is very good at night. If you
stand outside the station for five minutes,there will be three fire engines going past
5
you. They are on the way to the fire that Tokyo has every day.

Travelling is very interesting. Many people love travelling. There are many ways
to travel: by plane, by train, by ship or by car. Everyone has their favourite way.
My favourite way of travelling is by car. I can bring my pet(宠物) dog
along. I can travel three hundred miles(英里) or only fifty miles a day. I can
stop at a good restaurant to enjoy a good meal or at a hotel to spend the night.
—Greg
I love travelling by train best! It's very exciting. I travelled most of Europe
in 5 months by train. It's the best way to talk with the local(当地的) people and
make new friends on the way. Trains make even the longest trip enjoyable. The
train ride to me is just like a big moving party.
I also like travelling by ship. It is a very great way to spend a holiday. I can
go to parties and watch movies on the ship, and enjoy the blue sky and water.
—Eliza
Planes are my favourite. It's the fastest way of travelling. I can quickly get
6
to another country. Planes have very comfortable seats. I can have something
to drink and eat. I can also read some free magazines and newspapers.

What is your favourite way of traveling, by car, by train or by plane? Maybe you
like to travel on foot, by bus, by motorbike or on a bicycle. My favourite transport for
traveling is taking a train.
First, I like trains because I can walk around in them and don't need to sit like on
a plane or in a car. I can also enjoy the beautiful scenery out of the windows of a train
along the railway, but in a plane I can't nearly see any thing. Second, I can know
much more culture about China because there are many people on the train and they
are friendly to talk with me. And I can feel free to use my laptop(笔记本电脑) and
cell phone, but on a plane I can't do that. Third, some trains are very fast now, so I
don't need much time to get to the place I want to go. They can make us save lots of
time. The tickets for trains are also very cheap. Most people can buy them, and trains
7
in China link( 连接) almost every town or city, so you can get almost anywhere by
train.
I don't like buses, because they are always crowded and they stop from time to
time on the way. And especially the smell(味道) of their fuel is very terrible(可怕的).
The most important is that they are very slow.
Of course, choosing what kind of way depends on(依靠) where I am traveling. If
it is far away abroad(在国外), I'll have to take a plane there.
64. Which of the following is the writer's favourite way of traveling?
A. By train. B. By air.
C. By ship. D. By bus.

cheap. My favourite way of transportation is traveling by train. I think it's safe and not
expensive. Traveling by plane is fast but costs much money. Taking a coach is cheap
but a little slow.
