【答案與解析】
1. 選B。根據(jù)距離75 miles away和時(shí)間four days來進(jìn)行選擇,只有Monthly Returns適合。因?yàn)橹挥兴梢匀コ^65 miles的地方,同時(shí)回的時(shí)間充足(1個(gè)月以內(nèi))。而其他都不能同時(shí)滿足這兩個(gè)方面。
2. 選C。根據(jù)Family Returns的內(nèi)容,自己的票是全價(jià),另外3張只需每張£3,故計(jì)算15+3×3=24。所以答案為C。
3. 選A。根據(jù)句子You can save much money with tickets on some trains.可知,乘飛機(jī)去倫敦是不能使用Big City Savers的,B選項(xiàng)不對(duì);根據(jù)Weekend Returns的介紹,使用周末往返票,你必須return the same weekend on Saturday or Sunday,所以如果是return next Saturday那就不能用Weekend Returns,C選項(xiàng)不對(duì);根據(jù)Family Returns中的句子You can travel as often as you like within two months.可知,兩個(gè)月內(nèi)隨你怎么用the card of Family Returns,那就是說超過兩個(gè)月就不能用了,選項(xiàng)A正確。
4. 選C。很顯然,本文是一個(gè)關(guān)于各種有優(yōu)惠的火車票,而對(duì)比四個(gè)選項(xiàng),在dictionary(字典)、textbook(課本)和storybook(故事書)上出現(xiàn)廣告的幾率是很少的,只有在newspaper(報(bào)紙)上看到廣告才合理。
