A traffic survey The city of Oxford has got a traffic proplem. Its an old town and the streets are narrow. There are too many cars and not enough parking spaces in the city centre. The Planning Department wanted to change the traffic system, and so they conducted a traffic survey. They asked a lot of people these five question: 1. How old are you? 2. Can you drive? 3. How long have you been able to drive? 4. Where do you live? 5. How do you come to town? Here are some of the results : Mr Browns fifty-eight He learned to drive when he was eighteen. Hes been able to drive for forty years. He lives in the country, twenty miles from Oxford. He always comes into town by car. Mary Mackintosh is twenty. Shes had a lot of driving lessons. Shes taken the driving test three times, but she hasnt been able to pass the test yet. She lives near the city centre, and she usually walks to work. Bob Brewers twenty-five Hes been able to drive for two years, but he hasnt got a car. He hasnt been able to save enough money. He lives in a village outside Oxford. He comes into Oxford by train. Mr and Mrs Wilson are both over sixty-five. Theyve never been able to drive. Theyve never learned. They live in a suburb of Oxford, and they occasionally come into town by bus: * Notes: A fraffic survey : 1 cuộc khảo sát về giao thông. Parking space : chỗ đậu xe.
