11、en you want one?B: Good question. There arent enough buses on this route.A: Sometimes I feel like writing a letter to the paper.B: Good idea.

12、 Say, is that our bus coming?B: Yes, it is. But look. Its full!A: Oh, no! Lets go and get a cup of coffee. We can talk about this letter Im going to write.

Its impossible to find a parking space downtown these days.A: I think they should ban private cars downtown between nine a
14、nd five.B: Oh, you mean they shouldnt allow any cars except taxis and buses during the regular workday. Hmm that sounds like a really good idea. (5) Quite a number of thingsQuite a number of things have been done to help solve traffic problems in Singapore. For example, motorists must buy a special
15、pass if they want to drive into the downtown business district. They can go into the business district only if they have the pass displayed on their windshield.Another thing Singapore has done is to make it more difficult to buy cars. People have to apply for a certificate if they want to buy a car.
16、 And the number of certificates is limited. Not everyone can get one.There is also a high tax on cars, so it costs three or four times as much to buy a car in Singapore as it does in, say, the United States or Canada.The other thing Singapore has done is to build an excellent pubic transportation sy
17、stem. Their subway system is one of the best in the world. And there is also a very good taxi and bus system. (6) Excuse me. Could you tell meA: Excuse me.

And just one more thing. Do you know where the nearest restroom is?B: Right behind you, maam. See that sign?A:
19、 Oh. Thanks a lot. A: Excuse me. Its me again. Im sorry. I need some more information-if you dont mind.B: Not at all.A: Thanks. Do you know how much a taxi costs to the city?B: Well, it depends on the traffic, of course. But it usually costs about forty dollars.A: Forty dollars? I guess Ill take the
20、 bus. That means I have almost an hour till the next one. Where could I find an inexpensive restaurant in the airport? Maybe a fast-food place?B: Go upstairs and turn right. Youll see the snack bar on your left.A: Thanks very much. Have a nice day.B: You, too. Unit 3(7) What do you think?A: What do
