How do the Americans think of the taxi?
Today I’d like to say something about taxis. I think it’s beneficial to all new-comers. Most people are likely to travel by taxi when they arrive in America. Actually, taxis here come under the heading of luxury travel. In Chicago, for example, the meter reads almost $1.00 before you even move! Furthermore, they’re sometimes not only hard to find at the busy hours of a day but also if the weather turns had.
Generally speaking, taxis are metered throughout the country, but there are some cities, for example, Washington D. C. , where they operate on a distant zone system.
If you find yourself sharing a cab with several strangers, you will often be expected to pay full price, unfair though that may seem. Nothing is uniform in the US. Furthermore, rules vary from one city to in other.
If you want to make a complaint about taxi service, note the driver’s number and name. When you write to the company, be sure to keep a copy of your letter.
选项
A、It’s a useful means of travelling.
B、It benefits a lot to all Americans.
C、It’s hard to find all the time.
D、It is a luxury and Americans seldom take it.
答案
D
解析
独自第四句指出:在美国,乘坐出租车(的费用)仅次于豪华旅行。这就是说,出租车在美国属于奢侈消费。由此可以推出,美国人应当是很少坐出租车的,选[D] 。
