The streets The Palmar District is an old part of the city with narrow streets and pavements, Because the pavements, are so narrow, itis difficult for pedestrians to wall together or pass each other without stepping into ihe road, which can be dangerous. Also, many of the streets are badly Iii at night, whieh means that it can be quite frightening to walk there. Answerkey @)‘The traffic Unfortunately, the district has a lot of traffic, which makes it very noisy and polluted. Also there is very little space available for residents 10 park their cars. Recommendations It would be a good idea 1o make some of the main streets for pedestrians only, with wider pavements. [also suggest that the council should provide good street lighis and build a car park for residents. Finally, I recommend that the couneil should fulld a ring road so that traffic does not have to enter the neighbourhood. 12 Staying healthy Starting off 0:@ 2 workout 6 treatment Binfection 4 get over 5 check-up Tillness 8 intake 9 putting on Recording script cba scx» Speaker 1: | think i pretty heathy. | mean [nave alovely if, ve been retirod now for nearly 20 years. fo financial probiems end here | am, in my BOs. a stil quite active -I mean | go shopping, visit my ends end go te the cinema when | want to, Whet mage can you ask for?
