Practice Listening: Fill in the Blanks (Type In) ID: #35147 Short Japanese Researchers
Instructions
* Fill in the missing words into the blank fields
For  the  first  time,  Japanese  researchers  have  conducted  a  real-life  experiment  that  shows  how  some  traffic  jams  appear  for  no  apparent  reason.  They  placed  the  22  vehicles  on  a    track,  and  asked  the  drivers  to  cruise  around  at  a    speed  of  30  kilometers  an  hour.  At  first,  traffic  moves  smoothly,  but  soon,  the  distance  between  cars  started  to    and  vehicles  clumped  together  at  one  point  on  the  track,  but  the  jams    backward  around  the  track,  like  a  shockwave  at  a  rate  of  about  20  kilometers  an  hour.  Real-life  jams  move  backward  at  about  the  same  speed.
