What information is given about train services in the area?
An unspoiled splendid scenery take its shape in the valley and estuary of the river Treloar, abundant with wildlife as well as views of historic interest. There are lots of channels to explore the area with the wonderful public transport networks. With just short walks in between spots, it is possible for you to leave the car behind and travel by boat, train or bus.
There is the Treloar Valley passenger ferry running between villages, alongside the river estuary and serves as a link with the train station at Barry, from which it takes only 10-minute walk from the riverside village of Carlton. In the past, the main transport way in the area was the river and as in the past, the ferry timetable varied from day to day according to the time and height of the tide. The ferry is also seasonal, usually running its businesses during the period between April and September depending on the weather. Visiting our website, www.treloarferry.co.uk, it’s convenient to download the timetable. If you would like to relax and enjoy the wonderful scenery, just take a river cruise to Carlton and back from the nearby City of Plymouth. Visitors were carried along the same route by steamships in the past. Queen Victoria and her family also enjoyed such trip in 1856.
Today, it takes you few hours to do the journey; the round trip only lasts for 4 to 5 hours, varying in terms of the tides and weather. You can travel up river by boat and return to Plymouth by train if you prefer. There will be wheelchair access on all the cruise boats and trains. For more information and departure times, please ring Plymouth boat cruise on 01752823104.
Trains travel between Carlton and Plymouth many times a day with different stations in between throughout the year. Local commuters as well as visitors who fancy the lovely scenery prefer to use the service. The highlight of the journey is going across the river on the amazing viaduct which was constructed in the early period of the 20th century, and it towers 120 feet over the water. Tickets can be directly bought on the train so it is unnecessary to book ahead. You can reach National Rail Inquiries by phone or online for more details about fares and timetables. The bus service is now linking all train stations and villages in the zone, specially for holidaymakers. There is a rover ticket including unlimited journeys, which can be used on weekends and national holidays. The rover ticket offers great value for money and is now even cheaper than it was last year. For adults, a ticket costs 5.50 pounds per day, for senior citizens the cost is 4.50 pounds and a family ticket for up to 5 people only costs 12 pounds. You can purchase tickets on the bus.

选项 A、Trains run non-stop between Calton and Plymouth.
B、One section of the rail track is raised.
C、Bookings can be made via telephone or the Internet.

答案B

解析 定位句为“The highlight of the journey is going across the river on the amazing viaduct which was constructed in the early period of the 20th century, and it towers 120 feet over the water.”。本题较难,两个定位词都有一定的难度。viaduct是“高架铁路”的意思,tower在这里是用作动词,意思是“高耸于”。因此在理解内容大意上会有一定的难度。不过这一题还可以通过排除法进行,前文“Trains travel between Carlton and Plymouth many times a day with different stations in between throughout the year.”(列车在两地之间有很多的停靠点)可排除A,又根据“Tickets can be directly bought on the train so it is unnecessary to book ahead.You call reach National Rail Inquiries by phone or online for more details about fares and timetables.”说明买票需要在火车上买,而网上只是询问信息,可排除C。
