Mr. Brown: Wow, your city has changed so much that I could hardly recognize it.
Mr. Wang: When did you come to Shanghai last time?
Mr. Brown: Ten years ago.
Mrs. Wang: No wonder you say so. During the past years our government has been preparing for the Expo2010.
Mr. Brown: (looking at a billboard) “Better City, Better Life” , is it the theme of this Expo?
Ms. Wang: Right. It's a dream. All the Shanghai people are working hard to make the dream come true.
Mr. Brown: I believe the Expo is bound to achieve a complete success.
Ms. Wang: Thank you.
(Suddenly the taxi slows down. )Mr. Brown: What's the matter? Have we arrived?
Taxi driver: No, no. As it's the rush hour, we sometimes get trapped in traffic jams.
Mr. Brown: Will we be here for long?
Taxi diver: Don't worry. It won't take more than 5 minutes, I think.
Mr. Brown: Really? Outside is such a huge crowd of people.
Mrs. Wang: Actually, our traffic condition has been greatly improved. It can meet the demand oftransporting not less than 150, 000 people per peak hour. So, take it easy, please.
Taxi driver: What's more, as our government planned, the Expo is located at the outer areas of the centralcity district, which makes traffic move.
Mr. Brown: Your government did a good job.
Ms. Wang: Quite right. Ha, we have arrived.
Brown: Oh, how magnificent! How much do I owe you?
Taxi driver: Seventy-five yuan.
Brown:OK, here's eighty yuan. You can keep the change.
Taxi driver: Thanks a lot. Enjoy the exhibition!
