The study compared the proportion of money poured into transport by thirty-seven cities around the world. This included both the public and private costs of building, maintaining and using a transport system.The study found that the Western Australian city of Perth is a good example of a city with minimal public transport. As a result, 17% of its wealth went into transport costs. Some European and Asian cities, on the other hand, spent as little as 5%. As a consequence, these more efficient cities were able to put the money saved into attracting industry and jobs or creating a better place to live.Professor Newman, ISTP Director describes Melbourne as two cities: "A European city surrounded by a car-dependent one''. Melbourne's large tram network has greatly reduced car use in the inner city, but the outer suburbs have the same car-based structure as most other Australian cities. The increasing demand for accommodation in the inner suburbs of Melbourne suggests that people now prefer to live there.Newman believes there is a new, more general way of considering public transport issues. In the past, environmental and social justice were considered before economics. Newman, however, thinks the study demonstrates that "the auto-dependent city model is inefficient and very inadequate in both economic and environmental terms''.Supporters of the road networks often reject the models of cities with good public transport by saying that these systems would not work in their particular city. One objection is climate. Some people say their city could not make more use of public transport because it is either too hot or too cold. Newman rejects this, pointing out that public transport has been successful in both Toronto and Singapore and, in fact, checks have demonstrated no correlation between the use of cars and the climate. When it comes to other physical characteristics, road lobbies are in a stronger position. For example, Newman accepts it would be hard for a city with a lot of hills like Auckland to develop a really good rail network. However, he points out that both Hong Kong and Zurich have managed to make a success of their rail systems, even if they have more hills than most cities in the world. In fact, Newman believes the main reason for choosing one sort of transport instead of another is politics: "the more democratic the process, the more public transport is favored". He considers Portland, Oregon, a perfect example of this. Some years ago, the central government decided to finance the construction of a new road. However, local pressure groups called for a referendum and the money was spent on a railway instead, which worked extremely well. In the years that have followed, more and more rail systems have been put in, dramatically changing the nature of the city. In the UK, travel times to work had been stable for at least six centuries, and people generally avoided spending more than half an hour travelling to work. Trains and cars initially allowed people to live at greater distances without taking longer to reach their destination. However, public infrastructure did not grow with the increase in urban areas, and this caused enormous congestion problems and much longer commuting times. Many think that if people have more money they want to live further from the city centre where cars are the only practical means of transport. The example of European cities contradicts that. People are often wealthier than their American counterparts but do not use their cars as much. In Stockholm, car use has actually fallen in recent years as the city has become larger and wealthier. New studies show that developing cities in Asia, such as Jakarta and Bangkok, make more use of the car than wealthy Asian cities such as Tokyo and Singapore. In cities that developed later, the World bank and Asian Development Bank discouraged the building of public transport and people have been forced to depend on cars -- creating the massive traffic jams that characterize those cities. An alternative proposal is to convert cities that have been built for cars to rail use, by creating urban villages at hundreds of sites, mostly around railway stations. In the study Melbourne emerges asDeselect Answer a European city a place where people prefer to live a city with a growing demand for car parks a city with an efficient outer suburban tram system a city where people use two opposing modes of transport Q. 2The use of private transportDeselect Answer has caused enormous traffic problems in Singapore has created hundreds of urban villages is more common among rich Europeans was supported in some Asian cities by banks has increased recently in Stockholm Q. 3The ISTP report showed that cities with well-developed public transportDeselect Answer spent less money on transport spent more money on transport offered people better jobs were a good example to other cities were less well-organized Q. 4Some people who prefer travelling by car do not agree with an increase in public transport becauseDeselect Answer it is bad for the environment it didn't work in Hong Kong and Zurich it didn't work in Toronto and Singapore there aren't enough hills in their cities it is not compatible with typical weather conditions Q .5In the case of Portland, the most significant aspect governing the choice of trains wasDeselect Answer the building of more roads government decisions financial issues the demands of the inhabitants dramatic changes in the city Q. 6When supernovae explode, they jettison matter into space at some 9,000 to 25,000 miles (15,000 to 40,000 kilometers) per second. These blasts produce much of the material in the universe -- including some elements, like iron, which make up our planet and even ourselves. Heavy elements are only produced in supernovae, so all of us carry the remnants of these distant explosions within our own bodies. Supernovae add enriching elements to space clouds of dust and gas, further interstellar diversity, and produce a shock wave that compresses clouds of gas to aid new star formation. But only a select few stars become supernovae. Many stars cool in later life to end their days as white dwarfs and, later, black dwarfs. But massive stars, many times larger than our own sun, may create a supernova when their core's fusion process runs out of fuel. Star fusion provides a constant outward pressure, which exists in balance with the star's own mass-driven, inward gravitational pull. When fusion slows, outbound pressure drops and the star's core begins to condense under gravity -- becoming ever denser and hotter. To outward appearances, such stars begin growing, swelling into bodies known as red super giants. But at their cores shrinking continues, making a supernova imminent. When a star's core contracts to a critical point a series of nuclear reactions is unleashed. This fusion staves off core collapse for a time -- but only until the core is composed largely of iron, which can no longer sustain star fusion. In a microsecond, the core may reach temperatures of billions of degrees Celsius. Iron atoms become crushed so closely together that the repulsive forces of their nuclei create a recoil of the squeezed core -- a bounce that causes the star to explode as a supernova and give birth to an enormous, superheated, shock wave. Supernovae also occur in binary star systems. Smaller stars, up to eight times the mass of our own sun, typically evolve into white dwarfs. A star condensed to this size, about that of Earth, is very dense and thus has strong enough gravitational pull to gather material from the system's second star if it is close enough. If a white dwarf takes on enough mass it reaches a level called the Chandrasekhar limit. At this point the pressure at its center will become so great that runaway fusion occurs and the star detonates in a thermonuclear supernova. A supernova can light the sky up for weeks, and the massive transfer of matter and energy leaves behind a very different star. Typically only a tiny core of neutrons, a spinning neutron star, is left to evidence a supernova. Neutron stars give off radio waves in a steady stream or, as pulsars, in intermittent bursts. If a star was so massive (at least ten times the size of our sun) that it leaves behind a large core, a new phenomenon will occur. Because such a burned-out core has no energy source to fuse, and thus produces no outward pressure, it may become engulfed by its own gravity and turn into a cosmic sinkhole for energy and matter -- a black hole.Supernovae from massive starsDeselect Answer will provide new energy and matter can eventually give rise to black holes have very small cores produce a large amount of pressure leave only a small amount of neutrons Q. 7Supernovae occur whenDeselect Answer large stars have an excess of fuel star fusion creates a rise in pressure the core of a star condenses and heats up the core of a star begins to cool down and expand stars as big as our sun run out of fuel Q. 8White dwarfsDeselect Answer cannot attract material from another star occur when a star reaches the Chandrasekhar limit can become supernovae when their pressure increases can become red super giants can evolve from stars smaller than our sun Q. 9During the process in which a star is transformed into a supernovaDeselect Answer the core gradually heats up until it reaches an extremely high temperature a black dwarf usually occurs a black hole usually occurs an extremely hot wave is produced as a result of the explosion iron atoms expand rapidly Q. 10SupernovaeDeselect Answer compress new stars absorb matter from space clouds produce the iron in our blood are found every 25,000 miles in space often become white dwarfs Q. 11Deselect Answer A B C D E Q. 12Deselect Answer A B C D E Q. 13Deselect Answer the two equations have no common solutions the set of solutions of B) is included in the set of solutions of A) the two equations have two solutions in common the set of solutions of A) is included in the set of solutions of B) the two equations have the same set of solutions Q. 14In space consider a point Q and a plane which is 1 away from Q.
