Urban Transportation in Canada
Public transportation & Transit passes
All cities and most major towns in Canada have a public transportation system with one or more modes of transportation (bus, subway, train, etc.). The bus is the most common form of urban transportation in Canada. To use public transportation, you must purchase a ticket or a transit pass. Transit passes allow you unlimited use of public transportation for a specific period (one month or more). They are usually cheaper than buying many tickets if you plan to use public transportation often.
Transportation for people with disabilities
Public transportation often has features to assist people with disabilities. In many cities and towns, there are also transportation services available specifically for people with limited mobility, such as specially equipped buses. You can find out about these services in the same way you would learn more about other public transportation options.
Etiquette on public transportation
When tablic transportation such as a bus or train, it is important to understand the unspoles of conduct in the shared space. Here are a few things to note:
◆Be polite and respectful to others around you. For example, maintain an appropriate noise level when talking or making a phone call.
◆If you are carrying a backpack or a large shoulder bag in a crowded public transit vehicle, keep it close to you, preferably at your feet to avoid hitting people with it as you walk by.
◆Avoid pushing or touching others in order to make more room for yourself. Sometimes public transit can become very crowded, but it is important to keep calm and give others appropriate personal space.
◆Have your proof of payment accessible in case you are asked to show it.

The elephant was lying heavily on its side,fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant wop in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati,the elephant princess.
Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride an
elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant roundup-how to catch wild elephants.
Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father,she was sent to a boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. "Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase,"she says.
But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun."My work," she says,"is to rescue man from the
elephants,and to keep the elephants safe from man." And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly,the Indian elephant is angry: for many years,illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village,Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.
The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant."Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans,"she said,as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant,happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!
4.For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to________.
A.get long lasting excitement
B.make the angry elephants tame
C.send them back to the jungle
D.keep both man and elephants safe
5.Before Parbati studied in a boarding school,________.
A.she had already been called an elephant princess
B.she learned how to sing love songs
C.she spent her time hunting with her father
D.she was taught how to hunt tigers
6.Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because________.
A.they are caught and sent for heavy work
B.they are attacked and their land gets limited
C.illegal hunters capture them and kill them
D.dogs often bark at them and chase them
