roadside shops	market places	railway tracks
moving trains	vehicles on the road	trees

Answer 1

1. Green fields: They look like a long, flat sheet of green stretching to the horizon.
2. Rivers: They sparkle in the sun and look like thin silver ribbons flowing alongside the road.
3. Trees: Because the bus is fast, the trees along the road seem to run backwards very quickly in a blur.
4. Market places and shops: You get only a quick, colourful glimpse of the busy shops and the people before they disappear from view.
5. Other vehicles and animals: You see other cars and animals on the road for just a split second as they zip past the bus window.
6. Railway tracks: Sometimes you might see train tracks or even a fast train passing by, which is always an exciting sight.
