READING COMPREHENSION 8

   Lee la entrevista que una reportera le hace al Señor White, un candidato que quiere ser alcalde de una ciudad y luego contesta las preguntas.

 Reporter: Mr. White, what will you do if you become the mayor of this city?
Candidate: Well, I will do everything in my power to improve the current conditions of the city.
R: I want to ask you about some specific topics. The first one is education.
C: Education has been a major problem in this city so I will build 200 modern schools. I will create a tax in order to support free education for all the citizens. Nevertheless, I won’t hire new teachers because we have more than enough.
R: Now I want to tell me what you will do about the heavy traffic and the traffic jams in the city.
C: Historically the Town Planning Office has not been able to manage this issue. As a result, I will invest a large part of the budget of the city in this office. The objective is to reduce the heavy traffic and the traffic jams not only in the short-term but also in the long-term.
R: The last two topics are entertainment and culture.
C: These two topics make a huge impact on the quality of life of the citizens. Regarding entertainment, I will organize sports tournaments for both children and adults. With respect to culture, the city will hold a cultural event every day.

R: Thank you, Mr. White.
