Questions 23-28 are based on the following text.
Should Americans be Forced to Public Transportation?
By Jack Davis
First , let me define what the question is and isn’t asking. It isn’t asking if
we should we all abandon cars right now, nor is it asking if we should abandon
them complety, nor is it asking if every American should do so. It is asking
wheater some Americans should have to take public transit some of the time, and
I would say yes.
Oil use and pollution aside, in some cities like Los Angeles and New York there
just isn’t room for any more roads, so in order for large cities to grow, they
need more people to take public transit or risk permanent traffic jam. One bus
can safely hold 40 people so even at half capacity that’s nearly 20 cars’ worth
of space in traffic cleared up, and nearly 20 parking spaces that don’t
need to built.
There are a lot of people that can take with transit little inconvenience
but simply don’t because they never have in the past. If residents in areas
with plenty of transit had to buy transit passes as part of their property
taxes then they would have little excuse not to bus occasionally. QA number of
universities already bundle a ‘U-Pass’ with their tuition feeds, forcing their
students to take the bus. When given the change the majority of those students
have voted to keep these programs.
A similar system in apartments where a portion of the tenants are not issued
parking spaces in exchange for a discount on their rent would also be community
car to several apartment tenants that arrange a schedule for the car, and this
program gets many positive reviews.
So yes, I would say that Americans should be forced to use public transit, as
Americans whom are already forced to do so find that it works well for them.
23. What does writer suggest?

b. Americans

a. Make people

b. Banning the

c. stop

hear such words. He said, “My dear Friend, what are you saying? I don’t any
problem with you or your friendship”. He assured the Jackal that he had no such
ill-feelings for the friendship between them.
The Lion also assured for that he would talk to talk to the lioness and solve
the whole matter. The jackal was intelligent and understood the situation. He
said to the lion, “I know you are sincere, but our families could not exactly
