Chapter: 03. From Here To There

⁠

Question 1

⁠

Name three different types of land transport visible in the picture that typically run on roads.

Based on the chapter, how are vehicles like the bus, taxi, and truck in the picture generally powered?

Compare the bicycle with the truck in terms of their power source and primary use mentioned in the chapter.

Three different types of land transport visible are a bus, a taxi (car), and a truck.

Vehicles like the bus, taxi, and truck are generally powered by engines that run on fuel.

The bicycle is powered by human effort (pedaling) and is used for individual travel, often for short distances. The truck, conversely, is powered by an engine and is primarily used for carrying goods over varying distances.

Question 2

⁠

Identify two different types of water transport shown in the picture.

What kind of goods do large ships typically carry, and where are these goods loaded or unloaded?

Based on the chapter, how do some of the smaller boats, like a rowing boat, move on water without an engine?

Two types of water transport shown are a large cargo ship and a rowing boat.

Large ships typically carry cargo, which refers to goods or produce. These goods are loaded and unloaded at a port.

Smaller boats like a rowing boat move on water through human effort, specifically by a person rowing it with oars.

Question 3

⁠

Name the two primary means of air transport depicted in the image.

Why is one of these vehicles considered the fastest means of transport for long distances?

What is a specific advantage of the helicopter over the aeroplane, as described in the chapter, regarding landing locations?

The two primary means of air transport shown are aeroplanes and a helicopter.

The aeroplane is considered the fastest means of transport for long distances because of its high speed and efficiency in covering vast expanses quickly.

A specific advantage of the helicopter is its ability to land on any flat surface and fly at low heights, which means it can reach places where there are no airports.

Question 4

⁠

Describe how the pictures illustrate the evolution of land transport mentioned in the chapter.

How did a key invention mentioned in the chapter, represented by the presence of the cart, simplify early land travel?

Compare the efficiency of the traditional transport shown with the modern transport regarding carrying capacity and speed.

The pictures illustrate the evolution of land transport from ancient times, showing people walking or using slow animal-drawn carts, to modern times with advanced vehicles like high-speed trains and futuristic cars that offer much faster and more comfortable travel.

The invention of the wheel, represented by the cart, simplified early land travel by allowing heavier goods to be moved more easily and faster than by carrying them on backs, as the carts could be pulled by animals.

The traditional bullock cart is slow and has limited carrying capacity, while modern transport like the high-speed train is highly efficient, capable of carrying many people or goods over long distances at very high speeds.
