I. Read the following passage and choose the best answer.

Since the terrorist attacks of September 11^th 2001, there have been a lot of discussions about new security measures in airports and other public spaces. Defenders of civil liberties are worried that our fear of terrorism is a danger to our freedoms and privacy.

Now the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) in the US has ordered American airlines to give them data on millions of passengers. This is the country’s latest attempt to improve security checks on airline passengers. The plan is called “Secure Flight.” It compares passenger records, from credit card numbers to addresses, with names on terrorist watch lists.

However, the plan is causing privacy concerns both in the US and abroad. [A] It has been said that European Union data protection officials had “huge concerns” about the US government’s first attempt at computerized screening of passengers. [B] That effort was ended because of European fears that the government would have access to too much personal information.

[C] If the European Union determines that Secure Flight violates its privacy laws, airlines will have a problem. If they obey the TSA’s orders, they risk being fined by the European Union for violating EU privacy laws. [D] If they obey the European Union, they risk being fined by the United States.

1. What is the topic of the passage?

A. The European Union asking airlines for data about passengers

B. The question of personal property and US law

C. Privacy concerns in a post-September 11^th world

D. The risks that airlines face from the US and the European Union

2. According to the passage, the US government’s first plan for computerized screening

A. was accepted by the European Union

B. was ended because of protests from Americans

C. was ended because of protests from Europeans

D. was strongly supported by the airlines

3. Which is the best place for the following sentence “Overall, this is a very difficult situation for the airlines”?

A. [A] B. [B] C. [C] D. [D]

4. The word ‘they’ refers to ______.

A. EU privacy laws B. airlines C. the United States D. fines

5. If the airlines obey European Union privacy laws, ______.

A. they could be fined by the United States B. they could be fined by other airlines

C. they won't be able to fly into Europe D. they won't be able to fly into the United States

6. Which information is NOT in the passage?

A. The new plan is called "Secure Flight."

B. European officials have concerns about computerized screening.

C. Airlines can be fined if they disobey the new laws.

D. Airline officials are against the new laws.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

Most journeys in Britain and the US are made by road. Some of these are made on public transport but most are by private car.

In Britain many people rely on their cars for daily local activities, e.g. getting to work, doing the shopping, and visiting friends. People living in urban areas may use buses, trains or, in London, the Underground, to get to city centres, mainly because traffic is often heavy and it is difficult to find anywhere to park a car. Some places in the country may have a bus only two or three times a week so people living there have no choice but to rely on their cars.

In the US large cities have good public transportation systems. The El railroad in Chicago and the underground systems of New York, Boston, San Francisco and Washington, DC are heavily used. Elsewhere, most Americans prefer to use their cars. Families often have two cars and, outside major cities, have to drive fairly long distances to schools, offices, shops, banks, etc. Many college and even high-school students have their own cars.

Long-distance travel in Britain is also mainly by road, though railways link most towns and cities. Most places are linked by motorways or other fast roads and many people prefer to drive at their own convenience rather than use a train, even though they may get stuck in a traffic jam. Long- distance coach/bus services are usually a cheaper alternative to trains, but they take longer and may be less comfortable. Some long-distance travel, especially that undertaken for business reasons, may be by air. There are regular flights between regional airports, as well as to and from London. A lot of freight is also istributed by road, though heavier items and raw materials often go by rail.

In the US much long-distance travel is by air. America has two main long-distance bus companies, Greyhound and Trailways. Amtrak, the national network, provides rail services for passengers. Private railway companies such as Union Pacific now carry only freight, though in fact over 70% of freight goes by road.

The main problems associated with road transport in both Britain and the US are traffic congestion and pollution. It is predicted that the number of cars on British roads will increase by a third within a few years, making both these problems worse. The British government would like more people to use public transport, but so far they have had little success in persuading people to give up their cars or to share rides with neighbours. Most people say that public transport is simply not good enough. Americans too have resisted government requests to share cars because it is less convenient and restricts their freedom. Petrol/gasoline is relatively cheap in the US and outside the major cities public transport is bad, so they see no reason to use their cars less.
