S1 Los Angeles ( ) its public transportation network. （拡張する） Los Angeles citizens are tired of crowded roads and traffic jams, so the city is making a big investment in new public transportation.

S2 Hello and welcome to the annual Los Angeles Motor Show. We have a thousand cars on display, with 40 brand-new models. The theme this year is "the ( ) of driving.” This exhibition will give you an exciting look at the huge changes ahead. A big feature of this year's show is green vehicles. Hybrid and electric are becoming lighter, more efficient, and more powerful all the time, and luxury models are now appearing. Companies are predicting green vehicles will outnumber traditional cars within 20 years. Another big feature of this year's show is self-driving cars. These are vehicles completely controlled by computer. All you have to do is input your destination, and the vehicle does the rest. You'll be free to work, sleep, eat, entertain yourself, or relax with friends during the journey. All the necessary GPS and sensor technology is available, and these vehicles are much safer than ordinary cars. The only barrier now is changing the law to allow them on our roads. As usual this year, you'll also be able to check out all the latest car models. Dozens of new vehicles are available for you to test-drive during your visit. Visit the information counter in the main lobby to book a drive in the vehicle of your choice. Thank you, and enjoy the show.
