Some people have to use public transport. Some dislike it and some still love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.
British people use trains a lot. This is especially so for people who are travelling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a very high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It’s much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and slowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are travelling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam for a train.
Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of travelling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track (轨道).
What’s more, trains in Britain are comfortable. They provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs (电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phones.
54. The main idea of the passage is that ________.
A. British people enjoy public transport
B. it’s fast to travel from London to Paris
C. trains in Britain provide fine services for their users
D. trains are a good form of public transport for Londoners
55. In a traffic jam on the road, ________.
A. drivers can drive fast B. drivers can drive carelessly
C. cars are not moving fast D. cars will stop working
56. The 3rd paragraph of the passage mainly talks about the ________ of trains.
A. speed B. safety C. services D. problems
C

In the days that followed, dear readers, I slowly became friendly with the emperor and his people. They did their best to make me feel at home and brought me food and drink. I learnt that the name of their country was Lilliput. The emperor of Lilliput was a noble-looking (仪态高贵的) man. He wore expensive clothes and had a big hat decorated with feathers. The queen was also very elegant (优雅的). Hundreds of little people worked together to make new clothes for me and they gathered six hundred mattresses (床垫) to make me a bed.
The people of Lilliput called me “Man Mountain” and they came from all over the country to see me. People had to pay to see me and the money made the emperor very rich.
One day the emperor organized a parade for his people. He asked me to stand and his army walked through my legs to make everyone laugh happily. There were thousands of soldiers, some of them on horses. Everyone was happy.
The emperor and his people always treated me well and helped me in many ways. They organized language lessons for me. So gradually I began to understand and communicate with the Lilliputians and learn more about their lives. But I was still a prisoner in my temple home and every day I asked the emperor the same question:
“________”
“You must be patient,” he always answered.
Then one day the emperor gave me the freedom to walk about Lilliput. This made a big difference to me. I was able to explore the land. I was careful not to hurt the people or damage their houses as I walked. Everyone stayed inside and ran to their windows to look at me. I enjoyed looking into the windows of the emperor’s beautiful palace to see how he lived.

Don’t be sad if people seem to be laughing at your mistakes. It’s better for people to laugh at your mistakes than to be angry with you. The most important thing for learning English is don’t be afraid of making mistakes because everyone makes mistakes.

Some people have to use public transport. Some dislike it and some still love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.
British people use trains a lot. This is especially so for people who are travelling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a very high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It’s much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and slowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are travelling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam for a train.
Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of travelling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track (轨道).
What’s more, trains in Britain are comfortable. They provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs (电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phones.
54. The main idea of the passage is that ________.
A. British people enjoy public transport
B. it’s fast to travel from London to Paris

55. In a traffic jam on the road, ________.
A. drivers can drive fast B. drivers can drive carelessly
C. cars are not moving fast D. cars will stop working
56. The 3rd paragraph of the passage mainly talks about the ________ of trains.
A. speed B. safety C. services D. problems

In the days that followed, dear readers, I slowly became friendly with the emperor and his people. They did their best to make me feel at home and brought me food and drink. I learnt that the name of their country was Lilliput. The emperor of Lilliput was a noble-looking (仪态高贵的) man. He wore expensive clothes and had a big hat decorated with feathers. The queen was also very elegant (优雅的). Hundreds of little people worked together to make new clothes for me and they gathered six hundred mattresses (床垫) to make me a bed.
The people of Lilliput called me “Man Mountain” and they came from all over the country to see me. People had to pay to see me and the money made the emperor very rich.
One day the emperor organized a parade for his people. He asked me to stand and his army walked through my legs to make everyone laugh happily. There were thousands of soldiers, some of them on horses. Everyone was happy.
The emperor and his people always treated me well and helped me in many ways. They organized language lessons for me. So gradually I began to understand and communicate with the Lilliputians and learn more about their lives. But I was still a prisoner in my temple home and every day I asked the emperor the same question:
“________”
“You must be patient,” he always answered.
Then one day the emperor gave me the freedom to walk about Lilliput. This made a big difference to me. I was able to explore the land.
