问题     The British like moving. They regard the opportunity to travel far and frequently as a right. Some people spend up to two or three hours each day getting to work in London or some other city and back to their suburban or country homes in the evening. Most people do not spend time quite so long each day traveling, but it is taken for granted that few people live near enough to their work or secondary school to get there on foot. As elsewhere in Europe, there are serious problems of traffic congestion (拥挤) and pollution.
选项
答案     英国人喜欢动。他们把有机会经常长途旅行视为一项权利。有些英国人每天会花费多达两三个小时的时间去伦敦或者其他城市工作，晚上再返回他们在郊区或者农村的家。大部分人每天在路上花费的时间并不是很长，但是由于大部分人居住的地方离上班或者上中学的地方很远，无法步行前往，他们认为这是理所当然的。英国与欧洲其他地方一样，交通拥挤和污染问题非常严重。
解析 这是一段说明文字，主要介绍英国人对上下班交通的看法。翻译时需要注意以下单词和短语：regard…as"把……看作／视为” ，up to"多达”，spend time doing sth.“花费时间做某事”，suburban“郊区的”，take it for granted“认为……理所当然”，secondary school“中学”，on foot“步行”。
