Comprehension Test 10 - Transport Around The World - Part 1
London Underground
This is a report of why tube is the best ways to travel around London.
People travel around the city of London by car because they want to go quickly. So say that you live in South Ruislip and your friend lives in Queensbury. You decided to visit there and go by car because it's a short journey. But wait a minute. What if there is traffic? Would it delay your journey? Well, cars give more pollution. You really need to travel by train. By train.
So, What's the History of the Underground Line?
Well, the first tube opened at 1863. It was known as the Metropolitan Railway. Now, I'm not talking about the Metropolitan line. Later then, the Central line opened at 1900. A few years later, the Meteopolitan railway was now an Overground line.
Two Enemies
The longest tube line is said to be the Central line, from West Ruislip to Epping. There is no other train line that, which runs from the Borough of Hillingdon to Outer-London. But people complain that the Central line isn't Eco-friendly because it looks like an unused train, sends pollution and it isn't more of a normal underground train. The deepest underground station is Hampstead, serving the Northern Line. People are happy about the Northern Line because is runs more of electricity, doesn't send pollution and is more of a bullet train.
The Docklands Light Railway
The DLR ( Docklands Light Railway ) is a light railway network, which runs through various stations, even though it isn't speedy as it is. The slowest time is from Bow Church to Pudding Mill Lane, with a speed of 4 mph. Even though it is slow, it runs on electricity and people never have a train like this. It's to be said that Bank is the second deepest railway station, or shall I say, TFL station of London. The DLR will extend to Victoria and Kings Cross, but experts aren't sure because of the Elizabeth line openings.
