READING. Read this text and circle T for true or F for false. 4 x 0.25 = 1 mark

It’s a quiet Sunday morning on the city’s Avenida Reforma, in Mexico. On weekdays there are thousands of cars here,
but today there’s not one car. In 2007, Mexico City closed its main road, Avenida Reforma, to cars on Sundays. That was
the first big step towards becoming a bike-friendly city, and three years later, in 2010, it started a new bike sharing
system, the ‘EcoBici’. Now, with over 400 bikes, 276 cycle stations and 87,000 users, Mexico City has one of the most
successful bike share systems in the Americas. Cyclists can take a bike from one cycle station and leave it at any other
station in the city between 6.00a.m. and 00:30 a.m. Users have to be over sixteen years old and pay 300 pesos by credit
or debit card for a year’s use. They don’t have to pay anything for the first forty-five minutes of each journey. Forty-nine-
year-old businessman Mateo Reyes says ‘I only use my car when I’m too tired to cycle, but I go by bike when the traffic
is bad. And the traffic is usually bad’.
