The Treloar Valley Passenger Ferry ________.
The valley and estuary of the River Treloar forms an unspoilt, beautiful landscape, rich in both wildlife and sites of historic interest. There are many ways to explore the area, and public transport links are good. It is possible to leave your car behind, and travel by boat, train or bus, with just short walks in-between stops.
The Treloar Valley Passenger Ferry runs between villages along the river estuary, and provides a link with the train station at Berry, which is about ten minutes’ walk from the riverside village of Calton. In the past, the river was the main form of transport in the area, and as in the past, today’s ferry service operates according to nature. The river estuary is tidal, and so the ferry timetable differs from day to day, according to the times and height of the tide. The ferry is also seasonal,
normally running between April and September
, depending on the weather. A timetable for the whole year can be downloaded from the internet by visiting www.treloarferry.co.uk.
If you just want to sit and relax, and enjoy the lovely scenery, you can take a river cruise to Calton and back from the nearby city of Plymouth. In the past, steamships brought early tourists along the same route — Queen Victoria and her family enjoyed such a trip in 1856. The journey is quicker these days — the round trip takes between four and five hours, depending on tides and weather.
If you prefer, you can travel upriver by boat and return to Plymouth by train
. All cruise boats and trains have wheelchair access. For more information, and for departure times, ring Plymouth Boat Cruises on 017 528 23104.
Trains run several times a day throughout the year between Calton and Plymouth, with various stops in-between. They are used by both local commuters and tourists who want to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
The highlight of the journey is crossing the river on the stunning viaduct, which was built at the beginning of the 20th century, and towers one 120 feet over the water.
It is unnecessary to book, and tickets can be bought on the train. For information about fares and timetables, contact National Rail Enquiries by phone or online.
The bus service in the Treloar Valley now connects all train stations and villages in the area. Specially for holidaymakers, there’s a ‘Rover’ ticket which can be used at weekends and on national holidays, and allows unlimited journeys on those days.
The Rover ticket provides great value for money, and is now even cheaper than it was last year
. An adult ticket costs £5.50 a day, Senior Citizens can travel for £4.50, and a family ticket for up to five people costs just £12. Tickets can be bought on the bus.
选项
A、usually starts services in April.
B、departs at the same time each day.
C、is the main means of transport for local villagers.
答案
A
解析
本题询问Treloar Valley Passenger Ferry的相关信息。录音原文指出,渡轮(ferry)通常在四月至九月之间运行(running between April and September),故A项正确。录音中指出,渡轮的时间表根据潮汐的时间和高度不同(times and height of the tide),而每天有所不一样(differs from day to day),故B项错误。录音提到,在过去(In the past),河流是该区域重要的交通方式(main form of transport),而并未提及渡轮现在(is)是否为主要的交通工具,故排除C项。
