II - Read the passage and decide whether the statements are TRUE (T) or FALSE (F).
Flying cars aren’t just science fiction anymore. Terrafugia, based in the United States, is developing a readable
aircraft called the Transition. The vehicle has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up, so it can be driven
like a car. Terrafugia first began to work on the Transition in 2006 and has come closer than anyone to making
the flying car a reality. The company uses special tires and glass that are lighter than normal automotive ones,
which makes it easier for the vehicle to fly. An owner needs to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time
to be able to fly the Transition. The Transition can reach around 70 miles per hour (mph) on the road and 115
mph in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.

1. The Transition has room for four passengers.

2. Terrafugia has worked on the Transition since 2006.
3. The flying car uses special tires and glass.
4. All drivers of the Transition will only have to pass a test to get a license.
5. The Transition will go faster in the air than on the road.
