Getting around doesn’t have to be all about taxis, subways and buses. There are so many unusual types of travel to be tried.
Save yourself a little money in Pakistan and ride on a Tangah. A Tangah, pulled by one or two horses, is a carriage with two large wooden wheels. It is not designed for comfort, so be ready for a sore(酸痛的) bottom after a long journey! The Tangah is fun and becomes more widely used in Pakistan for enjoyment. Note that they’re not a fast way to travel!
Those with a strong body may want to ride a Cambodian bamboo train! It is known locally as a nori, which is just a bamboo platform(平台) powered by an electric generator engine(电动引擎). As is called a “train”, you will definitely find railway tracks under the platform, but please don’t ask for too much on speed. The tickets are quite cheap, and this is a once - in - a - lifetime experience, as all the locals use them for getting around.
The DUKW is a special truck that was made to transport equipment and troops(设备) over both land and water during World War Ⅱ. Today, you can take a trip in a DUKW in central London. You’ll drive past famous London landmarks before going into the River Thames to get a view from the water. It’s the only way to experience the sights of central London by land and river without leaving the comfort of your seat.

二、阅读理解
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了几种特殊的交通工具。
1. D 词义猜测题。根据第三段“As is called a ‘train’, you will definitely find railway tracks under the platform”可知，因为被称为火车，你一定能在站台下面找到铁轨；由此可知“definitely”表示“肯定，一定”，与 certainly 词义相近。故选 D。
2. B 细节理解题。通读最后一段可知，本段介绍了 DUKW 这种车的设计用途、今天的人们去哪里坐这种车以及人们可以如何欣赏伦敦市中心的风景。故选 B。
3. B 判断正误题。根据“It is not designed for comfort, so be ready for a sore bottom after a long journey!”可知，Tangah 不是为舒适而设计的，所以要为长途旅行后的屁股酸痛做好准备。故选 B。
4. B 写作意图题。本文主要介绍了几种特殊的交通工具，具体包括其起源、用途以及工作原理。由此推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是向读者展示不同的旅行方式。故选 B。
