URBAN TRANSPORT PODS
The people living in Milton Keynes, a town about 70 kilometres northwest of London, have been introduced to a new transport experience when they use ‘pods’ to travel on certain routes.
The pods are a kind of driverless cars which travel at 19km/h and are able to transport two people and their luggage. There is a touchscreen in the windshield of the pods where passengers select their terminal. During the trip they can also read the news, check e-mails or play video games on the screen. Powered by electric motors, the pods have ultrasonic sensors and a GPS system that help themselves know where they are going and how to avoid obstacles along the way. People can use a smartphone app to hail a pod in the street.

III: Read the passage and tick () True or False.
Energy is one of the problems that many people are interested in. It is not an unfamiliar word. It is heard, said, discussed day after day. It is close to everyone’s daily life. You turn on a lamp and it is energy that gives you light. You turn on a TV and it is energy that gives you pictures and sound. You ride a motorcycle and it is energy that gives you movement. You cook your meals and it is energy that gives you heat to boil rice.
The problem is that the demand for energy is rising and that the price of energy is getting higher and higher. The supply of energy on earth is limited. It can not provide us forever. The shortage of energy in the future is inevitable. Therefore, saving energy is a must if we want to continue to live in a safe and sound world. ( familiar: thân thuộc/ demand: nhu cầu/ inevitable: chắc chắn xảy ra)
