full of cars and trucks, you can never find a place to park.
If you have enough money, you can take a taxi. New York cabs are yellow. They
look all the same. But the drivers are very different. Some were born and raised in New
York, but many are newcomers to the United States. A few drive slowly, but most go
very fast. Cab driving is a difficult job. It can be dangerous, too. Thieves often try to
steal the drivers’ money. Drivers sometimes get hurt.
If you don’t want to take a taxi, you can go by bus or you can take the subway.
The subway is quick and it’s cheap, but parts of it are old and dirty. Lights don’t always
work and there is often fire on the track. On some subway lines, there are new, clean,

and too many graffiti, inside and outside.
