2 . Many people like to travel by plane, because it can save much time. But I don’t like it because an airport is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late. You can’t open the windows. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to get out of the airport and into the city.
I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late for strain, you can take another one. You can walk around in the train and open the window. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your trip when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.

6 . I'm David. Long ago, I came to the city near my hometown to find job. I met all kinds of difficulties and I used up all my money soon.
It was dark outside one day. I got on a bus quietly. Suddenly, a passenger cried in a loud voice, "Someone has stolen my money!" I felt nervous, because his money was in my hand. Some people suggested the driver drive the bus to the police station, but some were against it because they were in a hurry to go back home. The whole bus was very noisy. The driver then stopped the bus by the roadside and turned on the lights. At that time, one passenger said, "Turn off the lights and give the thief a chance to take out the money." Then the bus got dark when I was still thinking about whether to take out the money or not. The lights were on again. There was no money on the floor. Someone said again, "Give him one more chance." The lights were turned off again. I became even more nervous. The lights were turned on again, but they got the same result. Then the passengers fell into an open discussion. Later, someone said, "Give him the last chance!" I felt awakened and took out all the money when the lights were turned off again.
For many years I have been grateful to those who gave me three chances. When the first and second chances come, you may not be prepared well or don't have enough courage to act. When the third chance comes, you should know clearly what you should do.

7 . It seems that food deliverymen（送货员）are always in a hurry. Many of them don't follow traffic rules. They drive on the wrong side of the road and run red lights. They use mobile phones while driving.
The dangerous behavior has caught the public's attention. In the first half of 2018, food deliverymen had 76 traffic accidents in Shanghai. That means every two and a half days, a food deliveryman will die or get hurt on the road.
What makes food deliverymen face such risks? The strict rules of the food delivery service companies may be the answer. Many companies will fine a delivery man up to 2, 000 yuan if he fails to deliver an order on time. Fines also go to those food delivery men who get bad reviews from customers. In Shanghai alone, over 60, 000 delivery men complete 5 million deliveries every day. The high need for these service in city centers often results in rushing deliverymen breaking traffic rules.
In order to solve the problem, food delivery service companies need to improve their management systems. Some cities are also taking actions, Shanghai has asked companies to train their delivery men on traffic rules and safety. Now in Shenzhen, if a food delivery man gets caught breaking traffic rules more than twice, then he will be banned（禁止）from driving food service delivery vehicles（车）for a whole year.
