Correct the statements that are false.A more efficient public transport network desiredShanghai has seen great improvement of local public transport over the past decade. However, traffic jam is still an often occurrence (发生的事情) in local people's daily lives. Local people demand for a more efficient public transport network.Ten years ago, local people had no choice but to take the bus. During the winter of 1991, passengers flew on city buses averaged around 16 million per day. Since then, huge developments in the city's public transport infrastructure (基础设施) have been made. Three urban (城市的) rail lines stretching a total of more than 70 kilometers have been built, providing convenient light rail and subway services for the public. And the total length of city roads has doubled with the construction of elevated (提高的) ring roads and a series of cross-river links.However, with more people buying newly developed properties along the urban rail lines, the city's subway and light rail has bee increasingly crowded. Moreover, the number of vehicles on the city's roads has skyrocketed (急剧上升) five times the figure a decade ago.Transport authorities in Shanghai say measures will be strengthened to improve public transport in the new year to ease traffic conditions. Recently, a new regulation prohibited (禁止) all vehicles ing from outside Shanghai, learner drivers and taxis without passengers from using the city's elevated highways during rush hours. And, officials are currently cracking down on all illegal parking lots.Meanwhile, city government is planning new transport infrastructure projects to meet the demands of the city's growing population. Authorities say a number of key transport projects including the magnetic levitation train and the Lupu Bridge are expected to be pleted next year and will hopefully relieve the city's current traffic pressures.1) Nowadays residents in Shanghai are satisfied with the public transport system.2) Ten years ago residents can only took buses in Shanghai.3) Transport authorities in Shanghai are taking measures to meet the demands of the local residents.4) If you are driving from Nanjing to Shanghai, you are not allowed to use the city’s elevated highways.Step 5: Homework:1.
