Commuting is the practice of travelling a long disteince to a town or city to work each day, and then travelling home again in the evening The word commuting comes from commutation ticket, a US rail ticket for repeated journeys, called
a season ticket in Britain Regular travellers are called commuters
The US has many commuters A few, mostly on the East Coast, commute by train or subway, but most depend on the car Some leave home very early to avoid the traffic jams, and sleep in their cars until their office opens Many people accept a long trip to work so that they can live in quiet bedroom communities away from the city, but another reason is
Trang 4‘white flight’ In the 1960s most cities began to desegregate their schools, so that there were no longer separate schools for white and black children Many white families did not want to send their children to desegregated schools, so they moved to the suburbs, which have their own schools, and where, for various reasons, few black people five
Millions of people in Britain commute by car or train Some spend two or three hours a day travelling, so that they and their families can live in suburbia or in the countryside Cities are surrounded by commuter belts Part of the commuter belt around London is called the stockbroker belt because it contains houses where rich business people live Some places are becoming dormitory towns, because people sleep there but take little part in local activities
Most commuters travel to and from work at the same time, causing the morning and evening rush hours, when buses and trains are crowded and there are traffic jams on the roads Commuters on trains rarely talk to each other and spend their journey reading, sleeping or using their mobile phones, though this is not popular with other passengers Increasing
numbers of people now work at home some days of the week, linked to their offices by computer, a practice called
telecommuting
Cities in both Britain and the US are trying to reduce the number of cars coming into town each day Some companies encourage car-pooling (called car sharing in Britain), an arrangement for people who live and work near each other to travel together Some US cities have a public service that helps such people to contact each other, and traffic lanes are reserved for car-pool vehicles But cars and petrol/gas are cheap in the US, and many people prefer to drive alone

from which buses take drivers into the centre

A Travelling to work and then home again in a day within a rural district.
B Regularly travelling a long distance between one’s place of work and one’s home.
C Using a commutation ticket for special journeys in all seasons of the year.
D Travelling for hours from a town or city to work in the countryside every day.

Question 44: All of the following are measures to reduce the number of cars coming into town each day in the US
and/or Britain EXCEPT
C free car parks in the city centre D traffic lanes for car pooling
Question 45: It can be inferred from the passage that dormitory towns in Britain are places where people
A take part in local activities B contribute to the local community
C are employed locally D stay for the night

C happening again and again D buying a season ticket again.
