答案

小题1:D
小题2:B
小题3:B
小题4:A
解析

试题分析:本文是说明文题材。在文中作者详细介绍了地铁站的一些信息。比如每位成年人持票可以携带两名五岁以下儿童乘坐地铁;Farecard的购买和使用情况;车票的价格;此处,作者还介绍了一些服务部门的电话号码以方便乘客的需要。
小题1:D 考查细节理解。根据Metrorall (地铁)部分第二段内容there are no change machines in the stations and farecard machines only provide up to $5 in change.可知自动售卡机只能最多找5美元的零钱,故答案选D。易错选项为A,文中的 Use it after 9:30 a,m. until closing on weekdays是使用farecard的时间,而不是farecard machines售票的时间。
小题2:B考查细节理解。根据Hours of service的介绍部分 Close  midnight Sun-Thurs.;3a.m. Sat-Sun可知在周末停运时间是凌晨3点,故答案选B。
小题3:B考查细节理解。根据第三部分对Metrobus的介绍When paying with exact charge , the fare is $1.35.When paying with a SmarTripⓇcard , the fare is 1.25.可知如果使用SmarTripⓇcard的话,乘客可以节省0.1美元, 故答案选B。
小题4:A 考查细节理解。根据文章末段内容If you lose something on a bus or train or in a station, please call Lost &Found at 202-962-1195,可知如果乘客丢失物品的话可以拨打失物招领处的电话202-962-1195,故答案选A。
举一反三
Most of the guests who come on our trips have never been to Egypt before .We want to make everyone comfortable and at ease, but we do always get the same questions in advance of trip. So here I will give you some travel tips.
What should I wear?
If you’re lucky enough to visit Egypt between November and February, pack a sweater. You’ll need it——the desert gets rather cold at night. During the day, the temperature will be agreeable and comfortable. Any other time, pack as if you’re going to Phoenix of Vegas in August. For the ladies, bathing suits are normal if there’s a pool where you are going, but leave the string bikini at home –it is a Muslim country, after all. Last, if you are planning on visiting any mosques(清真寺)or certain parts of upper Egypt, ladies will need to plan on bringing something that comes at least to the elbow(肘部), and no shorts for men or women in those areas.
What special things do I need to pack?
One of my favorite things in the world to bring to Egypt is an Evian Mister, a sprayer with a fine mist of Evian water. You may be able to find it in your local drug store. Spray a little on your face or head , and your body temperature will feel like it’s dropped 10 or 15 degrees. Other items include your camera, sun block and extra batteries.
How do I communicate with home?
Internet cafes are plentiful everywhere, especially in Cairo, Luxor, and Alexandria. If you have international calling on you phone, you should be able to use it-AT&T and Sprint both work internationally for sure, but make sure you have the international coverage. A satellite phone is best if you are certain to need coverage in the middle of the country, like while sailing up the Nile , but for most people these days a cell phone is fine.
What medical preparation do I need?
In a word: none! The one thing you may come down with in Egypt is politely called “Pharoah ’s Revenge. ” The thing that gets rid of pharoah’s Revenge is a regionally produced medicine, and is available at every drugstore for $1 a box . DON’T    drink local water. DO drink bottled water, avoid the skins of fresh vegetables, and you’ll be fine.
小题1: What clothing is proper for ladies visiting a mosque?
A.String bikinisB.Bathing suits
C.Long-sleeve clothesD.Shorts.
小题2:What’s the use of an Evian Mister?
A.To relieve your thirst.B.To cool yourself down.
C.To prevent sunburns.D.To drive away insects.
小题3:What information is provided about distance communication?
A.A cell phone is enough for most people.
B.AT&T and Sprint offer free service in Egypt.
C.A satellite phone doesn’t work in Mid-Egypt.
D.Internet cafes are only available in big cities.
小题4:What does “Pharoah ‘s Revenge” probably refer to in the last paragraph?
A.A battleB.A tale
C.A diseaseD.A plant
小题5:The purpose of this passage is to      .
A.describe a journey to Egypt to the tourists
B.offer some practical tips on traveling in Egypt
C.warn readers of the awful insects in Egypt
D.appeal to more possible tourists to the journey
