         For a woman, speech continues to have such a clear purpose: to build relationships and make friends. For
    men, to talk is to relate the facts.

         The world's first subway was built in London in 1863. At the time, the government was looking for a way
    to reduce traffic problems. The poor areas of the city were so crowded with people. So the officials decided
    to make it possible for workers to live outside of London and travel easily to work each day. If people had a
    convenient way to get to and from work, they would live outside of the city and this would help reduce the
    pressure. From these problems, the idea of the London Underground was born.
         The plans for building the Underground met with several problems, but the first track was finally opened in
    January,1863. A steam train pulled the cars along the first underground track which was six kilometers long.
    About 30,000 people got on the subway the first day. They were treated to comfortable seats and pleasant
    decorations inside the cars. However, the smoke from the engine soon filled the air in the tunnels. Fans had to
    be put in the tunnel later to keep the air clean enough for people to breathe. Even with its problems, riding the
    Underground did become popular. It carried nine million riders in its first year.
         Modem subways have come a long way since the early days of the London Underground.
         Today there are more than one hundred underground systems around the world. Shopping malls built in
    traffic stations have helped the popularity of subways. Nowadays many stations include underground
    department stores, supermarkets and restaurants. Shoppers never have to go above ground!
    1. What is the best title for this passage?

    2. Why did the British government decide to build the London Underground?

    3. When was the first track opened?
