Read the following passage and circle the letter A, B, C, or D to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
These days, if you want to travel from New York to Beijing, the
flight takes about 16 hours. You also have to wait at the airport, and
sometimes you have to transfer onto a different airplane. If you add all
of that extra time, the trip takes at least 20 hours. But in the future, the
trip from New York to Beijing might only take two hours.
Right now, a private company is developing something called ET3.
ET3 stands for "evacuated tube transport technology". The capsules use
electricity instead of gasoline. For international travel, the capsules can
travel at about 6,500 kilometers per hour. That is much faster than
airplane most modern airplanes usually only fly at about 800
kilometers per hour.
There are other advantages to ET3. Because it uses electricity, it is
quite clean. In addition, it is much quieter than airplanes and cars.
Finally, ET3 tubes and capsules don't require very much building
material.
