Read the information, then answer the questions. An adult may read the instructions aloud. Show your working where asked.

Read before answering

Two original accounts of new transport. A: 'The buses finally connected the distant streets with the town centre.' B: 'Engines crowded the morning that once belonged to birds.' Both select details of the same change but may value it differently. Compare evidence from both; do not invent numerical impacts or treat an interpretation as a survey of every reader.
