B. Consolidation exercises
The London underground system has the (1) of being the oldest and most complex underground system in the world. Before 1850, train services to London had already been (2) , but people couldn’t build railways into the city because doing that would cause great (3) to many historic buildings.
So many buses were needed to (4) people to the city centre, which, however, often (5)__________ off traffic. This problem led to the development of the underground system.
In 1854, Metropolitan Railway Company was allowed to build an underground railway and the first tunnels were opened in 1863. In 1868, the next (6) of the underground system was opened by another company called the Metropolitan District Railway. In 1884, these two companies (7) and provided the underground service in the middle of the city.
With the development of the (8) ways of digging tunnels, the first railway tunnel under the River Thames was dug in 1884, and over the next 25 years, six (9)__________deep underground lines were made. But because they were (10) s owned and far away from each other, traveling on these lines was (11) . Having seen the situation, Charles Yerkes, tried to improve the system. He bought many of the different lines and setting up the Underground Group. In 1933, a public (12) called the London Passenger Transport Board was created, which eventually became London Transport. From 1918 to 1938, the system (13) e a lot. During World War II, the underground system had some (14) ___________ uses, for example, many underground stations once (15) as bomb shelters.
After the war, more lines were added. Now, the network of the underground system includes 12 lines and goes 26 miles out of central London. Three million people travel on the underground every day. Can you imagine what London would be if there were no such underground system?
C. Further Reading
For those who make journeys across the world, the speed of travel today has turned the countries into a series of villages. Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village. Jet planes fly people from one end of the earth to the other, allowing them a freedom of movement undreamt of a hundred years ago. Yet some people wonder if the revolution in travel has gone too far. A price has been paid, they say, for the conquest (征服) of time and distance. Travel is something to be enjoyed, not endured (忍受). The boat offers enough leisure and time to appreciate the ever-changing sights and sounds of a journey. A journey by train also has a special charm about it. Lakes and forests and wild, open plains sweeping past your carriage window create a grand view in which time and distance mean nothing. On board a plane, however, there is just the blank blue of the sky filling the narrow windows of the airplane. The soft lighting, in-flight films and gentle music make up the only world you know, and the hours progress slowly. Then there is the time spent being ‘processed’ at a modern airport. People are conveyed like robots along walkways; baggage is weighed, tickets produced, examined and produced yet again before the passengers move again to another waiting area. Journeys by rail and sea take longer, yes, but the hours devoted to being ‘processed’ at departure and arrival in airports are luckily absent. No wonder, then, that the modern high-speed trains are winning back passengers from the airlines. Man, however, is now a world traveler and cannot turn his back on the airplane. The working lives of too many people depend upon it; whole new industries have been built around its design and operation. The holiday-maker, too, with limited time to spend, patiently endures the busy airports and the limited space of the flight to gain those extra hours and even days, relaxing in the sun. Speed controls people’s lives; time saved, in work or play, is the important thing—or so we are told. Perhaps those first horsemen, riding free across the wild, open plains, were enjoying a better world than the one we know today. They could travel at will, and the clock was not their master. 1: What does the writer try to express in Paragraph 1?
A．Travel by plane has speeded up the growth of villages.

A．they pay less for the tickets
B．they feel safer during the travel
C．they can enjoy higher speed of travel
D．they don’t have to waste time being ‘processed’
