A

I've spent over a year in India, and in those 365 plus days, I've learned a lot about getting around Indian cities.My biggest lessons have been learned through being cheated，particularly by

2023年最新整理——考试真题资料 taxi and rickshaw(人力车) drivers, but that doesn't mean those are bad ways to travel, as long as you know what you're doing.Below are the best ways to get around the city of Delhi, India ，and tips for how to keep from being the victim of scams(欺诈)．

Taking taxis is a great way to get around the city of Delhi and chances are, if you arrive in Delhi by plane, as soon as you make it through customs，you'll be swarmed by Indian taxi drivers.At the Delhi airport, be sure to arrange for a taxi to your hotel at one of the two Delhi Traffic Police Taxi Booths.One is inside the airport, and the other is outside.The key is to make sure to go to a booth run by the police, rather than by independent taxi drivers.

Rickshaws are one of my favourite ways to get around Indian cities, in part because it's how the locals often travel.Auto- rickshaws are more common, but bicycle rickshaws are still used in Old Delhi.If you do have a chance to take a bicycle rickshaw, you should do it at least once for a unique experience that should only set you back about 15 rupees.Auto-rickshaw rates around Delhi range between 30 and 80 rupees, depending on the distance.

If you really want to travel around Delhi like the locals, take a public bus.Indian buses become very crowded and most do not have air conditioning.They are, however, very cheap.A bus trip won't set you back any more than 15 rupees, as long as you stay within the city limits.Since Indian buses get so crowded, try to board the bus at the start of the route so you can get a seat.

The train is a great way to get around within the city of Delhi.Fares are reasonable, between 6 and 22 rupees.All departure announcements are in both Hindi and English, and tokens can be purchased for between 6 and 22 rupees.

6. The author is trying to A. give some advice of travelling B. expect us to travel around C. show his/her experiences

D. explain the difficulties of travelling 7. To avoid being cheated，you ought to A. pay more to the drivers to keep safe B. show your ticket to the driver C. go to a police-run booth D. go out of the airport

8. The author suggests taking a rickshaw in order to

if you want to take a taxi at the Delhi airport.

．

A. save some money B．enjoy the comfortable trip D．help the local rickshaw drivers

C．gain a unique experience

9. What can we infer from the passage?

A thief who dropped a winning lottery ticket at the scene of his crime has been given a lesson in honesty.His victim, who picked up the ticket and then claimed the$25, 000 prize, managed to trace him, and handed over the cash.The robbery happened when maths professor Vinicio Sabbatucci, 58, was changing a tire on an Italian motorway.Another motorist, who stopped “to help”， stole a suitcase from his car and drove off.The professor found the dropped ticket and put it in his pocket before driving home to Ascoli in eastern Italy.

Next day, he saw the lottery results on TV and, taking out the ticket, realized it was a winner.He claimed the 60 million lire( 里 拉 ) prize.Then he began a battle with his conscience．Finally, he decided he could not keep the money despite having been robbed.He advertised in newspapers and on the radio, saying, “I'm trying to find the man who robbed me.I have 60 million lire for him—a lottery win.Please meet me.Anonymity(匿名) guaranteed.”

Professor Sabbatucci received hundreds of calls from people hoping to trick him into handing them the cash.But there was one voice he recognized and he arranged to meet the man in a park.The robber, a 35- year-old unemployed father of two, gave back the suitcase and burst into tears.He could not believe what was happening.“Why didn't you keep the money？” he asked.The professor replied, “I couldn't because it's not mine.”Then he walked off, the thief's offer of a reward.

That the Leaning Tower of Pisa no longer leans quite so much after a ￡20 million project to save it has proved to be a great success. The tower, which was on the edge of collapse, has been straightened by 18 inches, returning it to its 1838 position.

“It has straightened a little bit more than we expected, but very little helps, ”said Prof.J towards being upright.”

The tower, which has been leaning almost since building work first began in 1173, was closed to the public in 1990 because of safety fears.The 183-foot tower was nearly 15 feet off vertical and its structure was found to have been weakened by centuries of strain (作用力)．

Prof.Burland said it could have collapsed “at any moment” ．However, it took nine years of quarrelling before any work was done.The last attempt at straightening the tower was carried out.Concrete(混凝土) was poured into the foundations, but the result was that the tower sank further into the soil.

The straightening work involved digging out around 70 tonnes of earth from the northern side of the tower, causing it to sink on that side.Before the digging started, the tower was fixed with steel ropes and 600 tonnes of lead weights.

However, halfway through the project, concerns at the ugliness of the lead weights led to their removal and the tower leaned greatly.The weights were hurriedly reattached.One night, the tower moved more than it had averaged in an entire year.The tower's stonework has also been restored.

The Italian government stepped in after a tower collapsed in Pavia in 19, killing four people.Experts suddenly realized that the tower at Pisa, which was similarly built and on the same sort of earth, could do the same.

ohn
