DIRECTIONS: Read and choose the correct answer for each statement in questions 8 to 15.
Trains and railroads have a long and interesting history around the world. The first trains started in England in about 1819, but they weren't for passengers. They were only for freight. The first railroad in the U.S. started in 1830. Trains became an important way to travel in the U.S., because the country is so big. In 1869, railroads crossed the whole country.
Every country in Europe started its own railroad system, and they were all very different. In some countries like Spain and Portugal, the train cars are wider than in other countries. Today, you can travel to most towns and cities in Europe by train. You can even take a train from England to France. In 1994, a special train started that goes under the sea between the two countries.
Railroads are very important in all parts of the world. The longest railroad system in the world is in Russia. You can ride 9,228 kilometers on one train! In Peru, the Central Railway crosses over the mountains at 4,700 meters. It's the highest train service in the world. And in Japan, train travel is sometimes faster than plane travel. The fast trains there go more than 200 kilometers an hour.  Question 8: Some trains can travel under the sea?
