Dear Sir,
I have to travel every day from So UK Road to the airport. Two buses travel along this route: No.49 and No.16. However, by the time No.16 reaches So UK Road, it is always full.   小題1:   
The timetable states that there are buses from So UK Road to the airport every ten minutes.
  小題2:   The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting.    小題3:  
The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday, I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport.   小題4: There were 129 of them.
Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says “Maximum speed: 50mph.” 小題5:  
Saturday morning a No. 49 bus traveled the distance in ten minutes, at an average speed of 60 mph. At times it must have done at least 80 or even 90 mph.
It is obvious that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers. Can nothing be done about this?
A．I counted the other passengers as they got off.
B．Is there anything we can do to change this?
C．The problem is that we have to pay more for our trip.
D．The distance from So UK Road to the airport is 10 miles.
E. This leaves No.49 which sometimes has empty seats on it.
F. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?
G. Why is it that half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?

小題2:F
小題3:G

小題5:D

The First Americans
There was a time long ago when a land bridge connected Asia and North America. The first settlers in North America crossed this land bridge from what is now Siberia to Alaska. The people who made this initial(最初的) crossing were probably following the animals they used for food. Eventually, the oceans rose and the land bridge between the continents disappeared. The settlers, who I shall call the “First Americans”， could not return to their homeland. _小題1:__

They began by living in caves that already existed in the cliffs.__小題4:__ The dwellings(住處) they constructed in many ways resembled today's apartment buildings.__小題5:__ They built a system of dams and canals so they could store and use water almost any time of the year. They were so successful that they could raise fruits and vegetables that were not found naturally in the desert.

They built huge pyramids, lived in fabulous cities, and made great advances in science and mathematics long before the Europeans arrived.
