New York city is a very large city with 8 million people.How do so many people move about New York on their way to work and school?
In New York you can travel about the city by subway,bus,taxi and private（私人的）car.The subway runs on the railroad lines under the city.It crosses the city at different points and goes to all parts of the city.Travelling by subway is the fastest way to get around the city.
The second way to travel about the city is by public bus.It is a slower way to travel.This is because the bus moves in road traffic which is often heavy.
