【答案与解析】本文为从Boston 到New York的列车时间表。
1.C。计算比较题。通过计算可发现从Boston 到New York的1:15 PM列车只需要4 hours 30 minutes可推知此题答案为C。
2.B。计算题。通过计算可发现5:10 AM、7:10 AM、9:10 AM这三辆列车从Boston 到New York需要五个多小时,由此可推知此题答案为B。
3. D。判断题。因为圣诞节属于节日,所以不能乘坐 10:00 AM Ex. Hol. 和 3:40 PM Ex. Hol. 这两班列车,而圣诞节又可能是星期六或星期天,所以有不能乘坐5:10 AM Ex. Sun. 和 9:10 AM Ex. Sat. & Sun. 这两班列车。这样一定能乘坐的就只有三班车了。故选D。
