In this module you are going to learn about
transportation. You will learn how each
transport has particular characteristics and
functions. You will also learn how to do
a survey and find out how other students
come to school. This module also presents an
overview of the history of transport and the
importance it has for filmmakers and authors.

Do people use a different way of transport in rural and urban zones? How do
you do a survey? What impact does transportation have for the environment?
Is transportation efficient in my city? What will be the future of transportation?

Lesson A
Communication and Cultural Awareness
What transportation do people use in rural and in urban areas?
Transportation in Rural and Urban Areas
In urban areas, there is a lot of noise and pollution. Traffic

and parking are difficult. In the cities, we can find public
transportation such as the metro, the bus, the trolley, taxis, or
cabs. In some cities, people also use their bikes to go to work or
school.
In rural areas, there is little noise, and the air is cleaner. Public
transport is rare, but the most common is the bus. People walk
more; they also ride their horses, or use their motorbikes.
Mineduc
In the Amazon Region, people use canoes or boats.
1. These are some of the public transport vocabulary words you

The Orient Express

Luxury trains are trains that offer a lot of comfort. The Orient
Wikimedia Commons / Murdockcrc

express was a modern train where the passengers had several
restaurants, areas to relax, and very comfortable rooms to
sleep. The most frequent route of the Orient Express was
from Paris to Constantinople. These trains inspired novelists
and filmmakers to write interesting stories. A famous British
writer called Agatha Christie wrote a book called Murder on
the Orient Express.
In her book, Hercules Poirot, a famous French detective, was
travelling on the Orient Express. He was returning to London
from Istanbul. While the passengers of the train slept, Poirot
listened to noises on the train and discovered that one of the

to find who the murderer was. However, it was not easy to
find out who the murderer was because everyone on the train
could have been guilty.

What are the means of maritime transport?
There is land, air and maritime transport.

In this lesson, we will discover how submarines
work and how they submerge in water. The first
submarines were created during the First World
War. Today, submarines have different uses. For
example, people use submarines to study maritime
life, for wars, and even for tourism.
In general, submarines have three sections.
The first is a section for the commandant.
In this section the commandant controls the
submarine and remains in contact with the
supervisors on the ground. In the second part,
is a kind of dining room for the members of the
crew and in the third section the crew members
can sleep and relax.
To submerge, submarines have a large
container of water. When the container is full, it
is heavy and the Remo: the officer who gives orders

Leonardo Da Vinci liked the idea that men

could fly. He spent a lot of time observing birds
to understand how they flew. His first flying
machines were called ornithopters. There were
different models: one-floor, two-floors, for one
or two passengers, the pilots could travel
standing or lying down. There were large and
small models. The engine of the ornithopters
was the pilot who had to move his arms with
force, like the birds to be able to make the
machine fly. Of course, it did not work and
Leonardo understood that men were different
Revista de Historia
from birds, and they could not fly.
Then Leonardo created something similar to a
helicopter. That machine could fly and was an
inspiration to make more flying machines later.
Leonardo had a scientific mind.
