分析 本文是说明文题材.在文中作者详细介绍了地铁站的一些信息.比如每位成年人持票可以携带两名五岁以下儿童乘坐地铁;Farecard的购买和使用情况;车票的价格;此处,作者还介绍了一些服务部门的电话号码以方便乘客的需要.

解答 21.D 细节理解题.Metrorall (地铁)部分第二段内容there are no change machines in the stations and farecard machines only provide up to $5 in change.可知自动售卡机只能最多找5美元的零钱,故答案选D.易错选项为A,文中的 Use it after 9:30 a,m.until closing on weekdays是使用farecard的时间,而不是farecard machines售票的时间.
22.B 细节理解题.根据Hours of service的介绍部分"Close midnight Sun-Thurs.;3a.m.Sat-Sun"可知,在周末停运时间是凌晨3点,故答案选B.
23.A 细节理解题.根据文章最后一段的"If you lose something on a bus or train or in a station,please call Lost &Found at 202-962-1195,"可知,如果乘客丢失物品的话可以拨打失物招领处的电话202-962-1195,故答案选A.

点评 本文是广告布告类阅读理解.做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍,做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析,结合选项选出正确答案.推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案,切忌胡乱猜测,一定要做到有理有据

The brain(47)B of 30 volunteers were watched in the first part of the research as they read Shakespeare in different(48)C.
