Going to a friend’s house is very exciting. You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he lives. So remember to be polite.
When to arrive: The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come “around 3:00”, that means you can turn up a little bit after 3:00. But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time.
What to bring: Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend’s house. This could be a box of chocolates for you two to share, or maybe a movie that you can watch together. You can also bring some flowers. A little present is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house.
How to greet: When you visit your friend’s house, you may also meet his parents. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul.

Traffic jams（堵塞）is a big problem in many big cities. Now, people use a “super bus”to solve the problem. The“super bus”is 40 meters long and 6 meters wide. It has two floors. Passengers（乘客）sit on the upper floor. A“super bus”can hold 1,200 to 1,400 people. That is the work of about 40 ordinary（普通的）buses. When the“super bus”runs on the road, the other cars and buses can run through from its low floor. That is just like boatsor ships go through a bridge. So the“super bus”hardly（几乎不）takes any room of the roads. So we can say using the“super bus”is the best way to solve the traffic problem.
Answer the questions according to what you read.Why do many big cities use the“super bus”?
How wide is the“super bus”
Which part of the“super bus”do passengers sit on?
