Traffic jams have become less since the new rule was started on July, I. The jam caused by accidents dropped nearly 60 percent from last year.One of the citys biggest headaches, traffic overcrowding is talked about daily. The local government has done many things trying to solve the problem, including building new roads and crossovers, sending out more policemen and employing assistants to keep the order on the road. But these actions did not result in success.The new rule for minor traffic accident settlement allows car owners to reach an agreement about the responsibility and payment in these accidents, instead of waiting for the police to support their agreements. The agreements are acceptable by the insurance companies.Compared with constructing new roads, this new rule is only a change in traffic accident settlement procedures that does not cost taxpayers any money, but it has greatly lessened traffic jams.This change actually allows all car owners to have the right to deal with the accident as long as there is no serious harm, damage or losses. In this way, the public has now become an active part in traffic management. The management becomes much better and the traffic is improved.This is an enlightening example. The improvement of traffic depends not only on building new roads, but also on the method, system and detailed deals in the traffic management. ( ) 4. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. The traffic in Beijing is improving quickly. B. An example is given for better agreement.C. Building new roads depends on road system. D. Management is important in improving traffic.After I had finished my university studies, I decided to work for Asia Hope, a charity institution (慈善机构) that helps children. I did a business course when I was at university and during my four years there, I was active in raising money for charity. I worked on several big charity projects (方案) at university and one year, my team and I managed to raise over $200,000 for Oxfam and Asia Hope.I decided to work with Asia Hope because it offers many different kinds of work and it allows people to choose the projects they want to work on. Since my university course was in business, I decided that I would be best at helping the institution to raise money. On joining the Donations and Fundraising Department, I met many people and I learnt a lot in a short time. The work was hard and the hours were long. We had to get to the office by 7:30 every morning and we usually worked until late at night. Asia Hope is quite a new institution; many people have not heard of it yet. Asking people to give money to an institution they have not heard of is hard work, and quite often, people are very unfriendly when I speak to them on the phone.However, there are still some good points about the job. For example, I enjoy going out to meet people, especially important business people. I like talking to them and telling them about the good work done by Asia Hope. I explain how their money is used, and they are usually very kind and give a lot.I am not sure if I will still be doing this ten years from now but what I do know is that I love my work at the moment, and I know that I am doing my bit to help the world.( ) 5. What can we infer from the passage?A. People are unfriendly to the writer.B. The writer is not happy with her work now.C. The writer may not work for Asia Hope in ten years.D. The writer raised $200,000 after the university studies.
