Voice 1: Over the years the owners of the jeepneys have changed the look of their vehicles. They have painted them bright colours. They have added small objects to the front of each jeepney — objects such as lights, mirrors, and models of horses. And drivers have put pictures and poems in the vehicles. Each jeepney looks different.
聲音1：這些年來，吉普尼車主改變了他們車輛的外觀。他們將車輛涂成了鮮艷的顏色。他們在每輛吉普尼的前部都增加了一些小物件，比如燈光、鏡子和馬模型。司機還會在車里放照片和詩句。每輛吉普尼看起來都不一樣。
Voice 2: Today the jeepneys are also bigger. Local factories and businesses make jeepneys from Japanese truck parts and local materials. Now, many of them are almost as large as buses. Owners give the vehicles names like "Wonderful", "Good Luck", and "Lovely". The Filipino government has made drivers set fixed prices for rides. They must also put signs in the windows. These signs tell where they go. Jeepneys are very popular for short trips. Sometimes there are no empty seats. So people stand on the sides and the backs of the jeepneys. People even sit on top of them. Filipinos crowd together in their brightly coloured jeepneys.
聲音2：如今，吉普尼的車輛也有所加大。當地工廠和企業用日本卡車零件和當地材料制造吉普尼。現在，許多吉普尼幾乎和公共汽車一樣大。車主給車輛起的名字包括“美好”、“好運”和“可愛”。菲律賓政府要求司機制定固定的乘車價格。他們還要在車窗上貼上標志。這些標志說明車輛的行駛方向。吉普尼在短途旅行中很受歡迎。有時車輛上會沒有空座。所以人們站在吉普尼的兩側和后面。人們甚至會坐在吉普尼上面。菲律賓人擠在他們色彩鮮艷的吉普尼里。
Voice 1: In Thailand, the people crowd into tuk-tuks. Thousands of tuk-tuks are on the roads every day. They are three-wheeled vehicles — smaller than cars. They are perfect for the narrow roads in cities. During heavy traffic they can move people around quicker than cars can. People call these vehicles tuk-tuks because of the engine sound. There is enough space for three people to sit in them. But more passengers may try to fit in. The tuk-tuk's open sides make it easy for passengers to get in and out. But the passengers have no protection from breathing in the smoke and gases from surrounding cars.
聲音1：在泰國，人們擠進三輪摩托車中。每天都有數千輛三輪摩托車行駛在路上。這種三輪摩托比汽車要小。它們非常適合城市里狹窄的道路。在擁擠的交通中，相比于汽車，人們乘坐三輪摩托車出行會更快。因為發動機的聲音，人們將這些車稱為tuk-tuks。有足夠的空間讓三個人坐在里面。但更多的乘客可能會嘗試融入其中。三輪摩托的開放式側面便于乘客進出。但是乘客沒有任何保護措施，無法避免吸入周圍汽車的煙霧和氣體。
