It's very interesting to study names of different countries. Chinese names are different from foreign names. Once an English lady came to {look at; watch; visit} me. When I was introduced to her she said, “Glad to meet you, Miss Ping.” Then she gave me her name card with three words on it: “Betty J. Black”. So I said, “Thank you, Miss Betty.” We looked at each other and laughed heartily. Later I found that the English people {put; brought; took} their family names last and the given names first, while their middles are not used very much. I explained to her that the Chinese family name {came; comes; put} first, the given name last, so she {would; could; should} never call me Miss Ping. She asked if we Chinese had a middle name. I told her we didn't. But people may often find three words on a Chinese name card. In this case the family name still comes first, the other words after it {is; was; are} a two-word given name. It is quite usual in China. My sister is Li Xiaofang. She has two words in her given name instead of just one like mine."

BEIJING'S ROADS FOR THE FUTURE 　　The road system in Beijing's central business district (CBD) is being re-designed to make public transportation easy and improve efficiency. 　　Plans for 45 roads within the CBD have been approved, measuring 41.5 kilometers in total. In addition to public buses, free or low price shuttle buses from residence areas to subway stations will also be provided for commuters. 　　This is just over four times the number of roads opened in 2007, and will add another 15.5 km to the existing road network. 　　Besides roads, an underground traffic system has also been operating, which includes four new subway lines beneath the CBD. 　　The underground connection system is made up of two levels. The first underground floor is set aside mainly for pedestrians and commercial facilities, while the second underground floor is planned for parking. 　　The city has also invested 140 million yuan to set up a traffic inquiry system, through which the public can check traffic conditions online and see the most convenient routes on their GPS system. In the future, the CBD will be fully covered by an intelligent traffic control system. 　 操作提示：通过题干后的下拉框选择题目的正确答案。 1.

ROAD CLOSURE PROCEDURES IN SYDNEY 　　To minimize traffic jams in the city center and on major roads out of Sydney, the City's highway department will not agree to road closures scheduled for weekdays or Saturdays. On minor roads outside the city center, weekdays and Saturdays may be considered. You must apply for approval to do roadwork and other road-related activities, tree cutting and use of very large construction machinery, ladders, etc. Please note that approval is needed if you plan to block the road or footpath. 　　Applications to have a road closed to traffic must be completed and sent to the Department's Traffic Calming Committee at least a month before the scheduled date. 　　Roads can be closed partially or fully, depending on your requirements. Partial road closures are only allowed in light traffic areas where there will be at least 1 lane for traffic with extra traffic control measures to make sure 2-way traffic can continue to run for the duration of the work. Any change of traffic flow will require the proposal to be treated as a full road closure. For further information about a partial road closure, please refer to Contacts. 　　If you are organizing a parade, march or other type of street-based event, approval is also required and we recommend you choose one of our 4 preferred routes. Choosing an existing route reduces the amount of planning you will need to do. 　 操作提示：通过题干后的下拉框选择题目的正确答案。 1.
