and reelected. Some cities pay for part of the cost of public transportation from taxes. However, the costs 33 as
the price of fuel increases, and the politicians do not want to increase taxes. The rest of the cost has to come from fares
that the passengers pay.
The fare system 34 from city to city. In some, such as New York, every passenger pays the same
amount 35 he or she takes a short ride or a long one. In other cities, such as Washington, there is a system

London is one of the top travel destinations in the world, but for a first time visitor, navigating this large city can be
overwhelming. Using an Oyster card is an easy way to save time and money if you are planning to use public
transportation in London. An Oyster card is a blue credit-card-sized contactless smartcard that can be used on every
form of public transportation within London, including public bus, underground, railway, and some river boat services.
The Oyster card was first issued on June 30, 2003. The name was decided after a lengthy discussion. Two other
proposed names were “Pulse” and “Gem.” “Oyster” was chosen because it sounded like a fresh name that was not
directly linked to transportation; also, the hard shell of an oyster and the concealed pearl symbolize security and value.
But perhaps the best reason is William Shakespeare’s quote “ The world is your oyster,” which means one has the
ability and freedom to do anything or go anywhere. So far more than 60 million cards have been issued and over 85%
of rail and bus travel in London is paid by using an Oyster card. The card never expires. It can be used after any length
of time. Besides, deposits can be refunded on return of the card.
The best reason to get an Oyster card is cost savings and convenience. It is cheaper to travel in London with this
card than it is to purchase individual paper tickets for each trip. The card allows 40 people to pass through a ticket gate
per minute, 15 more than with paper tickets, and also makes boarding a bus three times faster. For London
Underground and the railway system, passengers have to touch the card on an electronic reader when entering and
leaving the transport system. The reader will show either a green or a red light. The former indicates that you have
sufficient credit for your journey while the latter indicates you do not have enough credit and you have to purchase
more credit before you can continue your journey. For the public bus service, which has fixed price, passengers only
need to touch the reader at the start of the journey when boarding. If you touch the reader again when you get off the
bus, you will be charged an additional fare.
46 Which of the following is the passage most likely to be taken from?
A city guidebook. A technology magazine.
A travel safety report. An instruction book for bus drivers.
47 Which of the following is the best definition of the word "expire" in the passage?
To make efforts. To receive money. To come to an end. To remain unknown.
48 What does a passenger have to do when taking the bus with an Oyster card?
To touch the reader only once. To wait for the green light to show.
To show the card to the bus driver. To pay the fare when getting off the bus.
49 According to the passage, in what way is an Oyster card a better choice than a paper ticket?
It prevents passengers from being charged twice.
The electronic ticket is more environmentally friendly.
It can save the time passengers pass through the gate.
The more a passenger travels, the more refunds he or she can get.
50 Which of the following statements about the Oyster card is correct?
The card cannot be returned.
The name “Oyster” is associated with efficiency.
The pink smartcard is the same size as a credit card.
The name of the card was inspired by a Shakespeare’s quote.
