TRANSPORTATION IN TURKEY
There are two important types of transportation in Turkey: Railway transportation and highway transportation. Highway vehicles (trucks, buses, cars, etc.) transport 90% of the passengers and 75% of the cargo in Turkey; but trains carry only 5% of the passengers and 25% of the cargo. Now, we can compare the costs of trucks and trains. We want to transport 1500 tons of cargo. One truck can carry 10 tons, but one train wagon can carry 50 tons. We need 150 trucks but only 30 train wagons for 1500 tons of cargo.

1 train wagon can carry 50 tons. 1 truck can carry 10 tons.
1 train wagon costs $30,000. 150 trucks cost $3,600,000
1 locomotive costs $2,000,000. 1 truck costs $30,000.
1 locomotive + 30 wagons cost $2,900,000.

Now, you can see which costs less and which costs more. There is another advantage of railway transport. We can use a train wagon for more years than we can use a truck. We have to think about the cost of fuel for these vehicles, too. Trains use coal but trucks use petrol. We all know petrol is more expensive than coal. That's why trains are more economical than trucks.

1. Compare railway and highway vehicles in Turkey,
a) Which carry more passengers?

b) Which carry less cargo?

2. Compare a train wagon (W) and truck (T).
a) Which is cheaper? W T
b)Which is more expensive? W T
c) Which can carry more cargo? W T
d) Which can carry less cargo? W T
e) Which can we use longer? W T

3. a) Which is cheaper, petrol or coal?

b) Which is more economical, a train or a truck?

4. What are the advantages of railway transportation?

SMALL CARS
When you go out, you can see a lot of cars, buses and trucks on the roads. The streets are always very crowded. Today, many people would rather use small cars. Small cars are cheaper and they are more economical because you can save petrol and you spend less money. These small cars are also safer because they can't go more than 100 kilometers per hour. In the future, a lot of people will probably use small cars, and probably these cars will use electricity so there will be less pollution in cities.

HOME SWEET HOME
For many British people, a house is the most important thing in their lives. In fact, 60% of the population doesn't live in rented housing. They would rather have their own houses, but prices are going up all the time, and many young people have not got enough money to buy a house. They live in small flats or in their parents' house (even when they are married). Prices are especially high in the southeast of England. In the north, and in Scotland, prices are quite low. Young people often buy old houses, perhaps more than a hundred years old because they(1) are not so expensive. But they(2) have to spend a lot of time and money on repairs and decoration.
