问题     Subways are underground trains, which usually operate 24 hours a day. They are found in larger cities and usually run between the suburbs and the downtown area. Maps and schedules are available from the ticket office. If you take the subway often, you can save money by purchasing a monthly pass (月票).
    City-operated buses run on various routes (线路) and are designed to be at certain places at certain times. Maps and schedules may be posted at certain stops, or they may be available at local banks, libraries, the student union, or from the bus drivers. Buses run mainly during the day. Fare is paid by exact change in coins, or by monthly passes.
    Taxis are generally more expensive in the United States than in other countries. If you use a taxi, be sure you ask the amount of the fare before you agree to ride. The driver usually expects a tip (小费) of 15 percent of the fare.

选项 A、within downtown areas
B、away from city centers
C、in or outside big modern cities
D、between suburbs and city centers

答案D

解析 本题为事实细节题。本题是关于subways,所以定位到第一段。其中第二句指出,地铁可以在较大的城市中见到,一般在城郊和市中心之间路线。选项D中的city centers是对原句中的the downtown area的同义转述,句子其他部分几乎完全一样,由此确定正确答案为选项D。选项A“在城市中心区内”、选项B“远离市中心”、选项C“在现代化的大城市内部或外围”,这三个选项的表述都与原句不相符,均可以排除。
