M: Hello, Juliet. I know you are one of the few women taxi drivers in the city now, and you drive for a living. What made you want to become a taxi driver in the first place?
W: I took pride in driving well even when I was young, for I had to wait until I had a car to learn to drive. When I finally learned, it was something I really enjoyed and still enjoy. I remembered how smart those taxi drivers had seemed driving so well, and dressed so neatly in their uniforms and I thought I’d like to do that myself.
M: You really enjoy driving, I see. And how long have you been a taxi driver?
W: Er, all together 12 years.
M: Mm, for quite some time already, hasn’t it?
W: Yeah.
M: Then, what did you find the most difficult about becoming a taxi driver?
W: I can still remember when I was first learning to drive—it was scary. I didn’t know yet how to judge distance, and when a big truck came near it seemed like its wheels would just come right over me. Anyway, soon I learned to judge distance. I began looking ahead, stopped worrying about trucks and about what was moving on either side.
M: In your opinion, what does it take to become a good driver?
W: Eh, besides driving well, the most important thing a taxi driver needs to know is the streets, and I knew the city well because I had lived in it for a long time. I knew all the main streets, and even the side streets. And of course you have to keep updating your knowledge of the streets, because the city changes. There might be a new road appearing somewhere one day.
M: Now, what about annual leaves? Do you have them?
W: Oh, yes. When I first started, I had only ten days. Now, I have three weeks every year, with pay.
M: Just out of curiosity. When you go on vacation to another place or city, do you drive there as well?
W: In most cases, not. I prefer to be driven by others, if we go by car. I would also prefer to go by train or plane, if there is a choice. I have already had too much driving in my life. So, when on holiday, I just want to relax.
M: I see.
1. Why did Juliet become a taxi driver?
2. According to Juliet, what was the most difficult about becoming a taxi driver?
3. In Juliet’s view, what is a good driver?
4. What can we learn about Julia’s annual leaves?
5. Why does Julia prefer not to drive when she’s on vacation?
选项
A、The driver can judge distance.
B、The driver knows every street well.
C、The driver keeps knowledge updating.
D、The driver lives the city for a long time.
答案
B
解析
从选项共有的主语driver可知本题与什么样的司机相关。在谈到成为好司机需要什么时,女士说:对出租车司机来说,最重要的是认识街道。故B项knows every street well正确。女士提到司机对街道的了解要及时更新,C“让知识更新”缺少具体所指,不正确。
