When people go to England, they must learn something about transportation there.

In England, cars, buses and bikes must keep to the left side of the street. If a person wishes to cross a street, he must stop and either look at the traffic lights or look both ways down the street. And instead of looking left first, as we do in China, they look right first.

To get about in London, visitors should learn to use buses and the subways. First of all they must know which direction (方向) they are going to and which bus and which subway they must take. At the bus stop they wait for buses to come. As soon as they get on the bus, they must pay for their tickets.

阅读短文，判断正（T）误（F）。

1.In England, people go along the left side of the road as we do in China.

2.When they want to cross a street, people in England look right first.

3.To go about in London, visitors should learn to drive.

4.First of all, visitors must know where to go.

5.After people get on a bus, they don’t have to pay for their tickets at once.
