Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet

to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions

There are some unattended level crossings, with gates which road-users have to open

themselves, ‘Stop’ signs, and small red and green lights. Do not cross when the red light

is showing, as a train is coming. There is a special railway telephone, and if you are

driving a very large or slow moving vehicle, or are on foot with animals you must first

telephone the nearest station to make sure it is safe for you to cross. Open both gates

before you cross and close them after you. When you have crossed, telephone the station

to let them know you are over.

Some other unattended level crossings have gates but have no red lights. At such

crossings, stop, look both ways, listen and make sure there is no train coming. If there is a

special railway telephone, first telephone to make sure it is safe for you to cross. Before

you cross with a vehicle or with animals, open the gates on both sides wide, and then

check once again that no train is coming. Drive your vehicle or animals right across and

well clear of the crossing and then close both gates.
