53. In Egypt, you stand by the road and you
shout the name of the place you want to go
to. If the driver wants to take you there, he’ll
stop. Then supposing you’d shouted
‘Zamalek’, the driver would say ‘Feyn fi
Zamalek ?’ which means, ‘ Where in
Zamalek ?’ You tell him, and then he quotes
you a price. And the driver will quite happily
pick up other people during the journey so
you can end up sharing a taxi with a family of
five and a couple of chickens. It’s such a great
experience.
54.
55. London’s famous for black cabs and I
love them. They ‘re so comfortable, but
the drivers can be fast and aggressive, so
you hold on because you think they’re
going to crash ! But they have such
interesting stories about famous people
they’ve driven, and about different
parts of London, that you don’t want to
get out at the end of the journey ! And
they seem to have an opinion on every
subject in the news.
56.
57. In Thailand, taxis are called tuk-tuks. The tuk-tuk
drivers come speeding up to you in the street,
shouting ‘tuk-tuk, tuk-tuk !’ The taxis are quite low
to the ground, and the top is covered, but the sides
are open to let in some fresh air, and you really
need it, because it’s so hot that you partically stick
to the plastic seats, dripping in your own sweat.
But the tuk-tuks are pretty cheap and they’re quite
convenient. They go anywhere you want to go, and
often act as a tour guide on the way, suggesting
good things to see and good places to eat.
59. What are Taxis like in Algeria ? Do they have
some similarities with the previous ones.
Write few lines describing taxis in your country.
