These no-car zones are areas for people, bicycles and public transport only. London Eight million people live in the centre of London and another two million people go to work there every day. The city centre is very noisy with hundreds of cars, buses and taxis, but there are also a lot of beautiful parks with free music concerts. At lunchtime and after work, many people go there for a break. Tokyo Parts of Tokyo are always crowded with hundreds of people, but there are no cars. These modern no-car zones are very popular and people like shopping there. Bogota In the past, Bogota was polluted because there were lots of cars and traffic. Now the city centre is a no-car zone and the air is clean! Many people don’t have a car and half a million people go to work by bus every morning. Melbourne In many cities, people don't like shopping in the centre. But in Melbourne, Bourke Street is popular because there are lots of great shops and no cars. It's expensive, but lots of people eat lunch in the small cafés.Unit 3 Places Grammar present simple 9 4% 1.21 Match the journalist's questions with the (/you/we/they) student’s answers.
