It can move at more than 300 kilometers per hour. Many countries have these trains, like Japan, France, China, and Taiwan. People use them to <strong>travel<\/strong> between big cities in a short time.<\/p>\n<p>The trains look long and smooth. The front of the train has a pointed nose. This shape helps the train cut through the air. Inside, the seats are soft and the windows are big. <strong>Passengers<\/strong> can see the view as they ride.<\/p>\n<p>The high speed rail is also very safe. The trains run on special tracks. Workers check the tracks every day. The train has computers that help the driver. This <strong>\ud604\ub300\uc758<\/strong> technology stops accidents and keeps people safe on every trip.<\/p>\n<p>Many people choose the high speed rail instead of the plane. The train <strong>station<\/strong> is often in the city center. You do not need to wait a long time before you go. You can also bring more bags than on a plane. The seats give you more space too.<\/p>\n<p>The high speed rail is good for the planet. It uses electric power, so it does not make a lot of dirty air. More people can ride one train, so fewer cars are on the road. In the future, more cities will build a high speed rail to help people <strong>commute<\/strong> faster and cleaner.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>A. \uc5b4\ud718<\/h2>\n<div style=\"display:flex;gap:24px;margin-bottom:18px;\">\n<ol style=\"flex:0 0 35%;list-style:decimal inside;line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>travel ____<\/li>\n<li>passengers ____<\/li>\n<li>modern ____<\/li>\n<li>station ____<\/li>\n<li>commute ____<\/li>\n<li>tracks ____<\/li>\n<li>smooth ____<\/li>\n<li>safe ____<\/li>\n<li>electric ____<\/li>\n<li>view ____<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ul style=\"flex:1;list-style:none;padding:0;line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>a. new and using the latest ideas or technology<\/li>\n<li>b. to travel between home and work or school<\/li>\n<li>c. free from danger or harm<\/li>\n<li>d. to go from one place to another<\/li>\n<li>e. people who ride in a train, bus, plane, or car<\/li>\n<li>f. flat and even, with no rough parts<\/li>\n<li>g. long metal rails that trains run on<\/li>\n<li>h. powered by electricity, not gas or oil<\/li>\n<li>i. place where trains or buses stop to pick up people<\/li>\n<li>j. what you can see from a place<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<figure style=\"margin:32px 0 24px;border-radius:8px;overflow:hidden;line-height:0;\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.unsplash.com\/photo-1775178120125-2b868e928677?crop=entropy&#038;cs=tinysrgb&#038;fit=max&#038;fm=jpg&#038;ixid=M3w4NzQ5MjF8MHwxfHNlYXJjaHwyfHxoaWdoJTIwc3BlZWQlMjB0cmFpbiUyMHN0YXRpb24lMjBwbGF0Zm9ybXxlbnwwfDB8fHwxNzc3ODY0NTU5fDA&#038;ixlib=rb-4.1.0&#038;q=80&#038;w=1080\" alt=\"The High Speed Rail worksheet\" style=\"width:100%;height:300px;object-fit:cover;display:block;\"><br \/>\n<\/figure>\n<h2>B. \ucc38 \ub610\ub294 \uac70\uc9d3<\/h2>\n<ol style=\"line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>____ &nbsp; The high speed rail can move at more than 300 kilometers per hour.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; Only Japan has a high speed rail.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The front of the train has a pointed nose to cut through the air.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The seats on the high speed rail are hard and small.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; Workers check the tracks every day.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The train has no computers to help the driver.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The train station is often in the city center.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; Passengers can bring fewer bags than on a plane.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The high speed rail uses electric power.<\/li>\n<li>____ &nbsp; The high speed rail makes a lot of dirty air.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>C. \ube48\uce78\uc744 \ucc44\uc6b0\uc138\uc694<\/h2>\n<div style=\"background:#f0f0f0;padding:10px 14px;margin-bottom:14px;font-size:14px;\">\n<strong>\ub2e8\uc5b4 \ubaa9\ub85d:<\/strong> travel, passengers, modern, station, commute, tracks, smooth, electric\n<\/div>\n<ol style=\"line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>The high speed rail uses ___ power, so it is clean.<\/li>\n<li>The trains run on special ___ that workers check every day.<\/li>\n<li>The train ___ is often in the middle of the city.<\/li>\n<li>Many people use the high speed rail to ___ to work.<\/li>\n<li>The ___ can see a nice view from the big windows.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>D. \uc774\ud574\ub825 \uc9c8\ubb38<\/h2>\n<ol style=\"line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>Why does the front of the train have a pointed nose?<\/li>\n<li>Why do many people choose the high speed rail instead of the plane?<\/li>\n<li>How is the high speed rail good for the planet?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>E. \ud1a0\ub860 \uc9c8\ubb38<\/h2>\n<ol style=\"line-height:1.9;\">\n<li>Would you rather travel by high speed rail or by plane?
