W: Well, did you get to find out about tile trains?
M: Yes, I’ve got the leaflets here. And you got the coaches ,did you?
W: Yes, look, I’ve just worked it out.
M: Well, that’s OK. There are trains all day, according to this. Here, there’s one leaving King Cross at 8:00 in the morning.
W:  Oh, goodness no. That would mean getting up at 6: 00. Count me out for that one, when’s the next?
M: 10 o’clock. Leaves Kings Cross at 10 o’clock, gets into Aberdeen at 17: 21. Not bad. Seven hours and a bit on the way. It’s 530 miles, after all.
W: I suppose it’s very expensive, isn’t it?
M: No,  what about going by plane?
W: You know how I feel about flying.
M: What about the coaches?  But can you imagine being stuck in a bus for twelve hours? At least on the train you can get up and walk about a bit, you know, stretch your legs.
W: All right, then, you do better. Find me a nice cheap night train.
M: That’s the trouble. There aren’t any cheap tickets at night. It says so clearly here. It says the cheap tickets are valid only for trains timed to depart between 10 o’clock in the morning and 2:00 in the afternoon. Mum, here it is, not valid for sleepers.
W:  That’s why the Day, Savers are cheap, you see. They want people to travel at unpopular times.

选项 A、The tickets are only available on unpopular times.
B、They want people to travel when trains are not normally full.
C、They want to encourage business people to travel at midday.
D、They want to make people think all trains are cheap.

答案A

解析 What’s the reason that the woman thinks the rail companies offer day save tickets?
四个选项均为独立的句子,可以理解为对某一现象或是问题的解释说明。
问题是“女士认为火车出售day save tickets的原因是什么”。根据对话最后一句"That’s why the Day-Savers are cheap, you see"可知女士同意男士的观点,认为白天票价低,是因为这样的票只在10:00 a.m.和 2:00 p.m.有效,而这个时段对于想睡觉的人来说不方便。因此选A)。
