In most capital cities, which were built (56 long) before the heyday (thời hoàng kim) of the private car, there is rarely enough (57 space) for moving traffic, and certainly not enough for parked (58
vehicles) Buses move slowly because of the volume of (59 traffic) thus encouraging more commuters to
abandon public (60 transport) Banning traffic from some areas may help, but such a (61 solution) may not actually diminish (giảm) the number of cars coming into the city What has happened in effect is that the (62 needs) of the private car have become the number one priority, and the older functions of the city center as meeting (63 place) and focus for social life have been lost The new city cannot (64 survive) without a series of ring roads Giant car parks are its new palaces During the working hours of the day, there is the constant (65 din- om sòm) of traffic, but at night the center is almost empty, apart from a few homeless in doorways Most people have (66 commuted- giao hoán) back to the suburbs, and very few of those who live in the center have cars, for often there is nowhere to park them The old city, with its
Trang 4narrow streets, may still retain (lưu giữ) a lively (67 air) but that may be because it exists as an island, where no cars are (68 permitted) Unless the local authorities have not yet plucked up the courage to (69
ban) most traffic from the streets, in which case the city center is (70 congested- đông nghịt) by day, and a
gigantic car park by night

A person steps on what seems like solid ground but discovers with horror that the ground is giving way underfoot The person struggles desperately but is trapped There is no escape Slowly the person sinks deeper and at last is gone, buried in the treacherous (phụ bạc) earth The solid ground was solid only in appearance It was actually quicksand (cát lún, chảy), which is a deep mass of fine sand mixed with water How is quicksand formed? Water pushes up from below the surface and is held by the sand The grains of sand are forced apart by the water They cannot hold any weight The subsurface water may have come from a spring, a river, or a stream Sometimes pools of water near beaches become filled with sand When the soil under these pools does not allow for good drainage, the sand can become stretches of quicksand It is true that a person who steps into quicksand is doomed to die? No, for people have fought their way from quicksand to firm land again It is panic that creates the condition that can result in death, for the more a person struggles, the worse matters become Quick movements will make the sand yield (tăng sản lượng) temporarily, but then it rushes back and settles solidly around the body People trapped in quicksand should either lie back with arms outstretched, or not move at all When the weight of sand a person’s body has displaced equals that person’s weight, the victim will stop sinking With feet held still, and with slow movements of the arms, as in the backstroke (bơi ngửa) in swimming, people have managed to roll to safety and reach firm ground
