问题 Public transportation has the following advantages EXCEPT______.
  
(15 - 1)Public transportation, while maybe not as enjoyable as commuting in your own personal vehicle, does ease congestion, reduce emissions, and give you plenty of quality time to watch, as well as get to know your neighbors.(15-2)In addition, public transportation allows you to relax, read or nap during that commute instead of fighting and stressing and feeling the road rage. Here are some suggestions for how to expand and improve public transportation in your community.
    Try to reduce the number of plane trips you take and try not to use a plane for any trips under 1000km. Plane trips are more environmentally destructive than automobile trips.
    Try the bus or train for longer trips. Buses, trains, light rail and ferries generally have dedicated travel paths that are quicker than sitting alone in your car, which can cut down travel times.
    Most children live close enough to walk school, but few do. Instead of driving your children the few blocks, walk with them or allow them to take the school bus.
    (17)Don’t drive to the office, or fly to that conference, if you can arrange to complete your work or presentation electronically, or via video conferencing. Video conferencing can reduce 99 percent of the energy used for a trans continental flight.
    Buy fare saver tickets. Return, weekly/monthly, or off-peak bus/train tickets are often significantly cheaper than single ride tickets, which will encourage you to use bus or train more often.

选项 A、it cuts down travel times
B、it saves much energy
C、it saves a lot of money
D、it reduces presentations

答案B

解析 情景事实题。根据句(17)可知,相比乘飞机去开会,视频会议能节省99%的能源。因此,视频会议比坐飞机去参加会议更环保,故B为正确答案。
