You can board these systems at regular stops along their routes.Some let you pay with cash;others require tickets.If you dont have a ticket for the bus,you must pay with the right amount of money.This is because the driver does not carry any change.Once you get settled,you may want to buy a monthly pass or a package of tickets to save money.You can buy subway tickets at the subway station. If you have to take several buses or the subway for a single trip,you do not need to pay any money each time.Simply ask the driver for a transfer,or pick one up from the machines on the subway platform. If you are not sure where to board the bus or the streetcar,just ask someone,or follow the crowd.Its usually at the front of the bus,where you show your pass to the driver.When using public transportation,Canadians line up.First come,first served,is a common approach to many activities in Canada. Maps of routes and schedules are usually available from the public transit company in your area,and there may also be a telephone information line.You may want to ask someone for the name of the transit company where you live,and then look it up in your telephone book. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了加拿大的交通系统。在加拿大旅行非常容易,大部分的 城市有公交车、路面电车、火车、地铁等。 24.What does this passage mainly about?

He was warm,friendly and treated us as if we were major leagues.He asked me whether I would like to pitch and showed me how to throw a “two-seamer,” a fastball that tends to sink,as well as a straight four-seam fastball.I knew that pitching was not for me.At age 45,my experience in organizing baseball was limited to a couple of years in Little League in the Bronx,and softball games as an adult.Mel eventually left the Mets and became the pitching coach for the Yankees.I followed his career and knew about his diagnosis (诊断)of multiple myeloma,a blood cancer,in April 2000,and a stem cell transplant. In the summer of 2002,I was diagnosed as multiple myeloma and was told that I needed a stem-cell transplant by the same group of doctors at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center that had treated Mel. This shocked me,and frankly,I became quite depressed.I vowed that somehow I would try to speak to Mel.One day,my phone rang.Mel was calling from the Yankees locker room.I asked him to tell me everything about his treatment.He spent 30 minutes generously explaining all the details.I hung on every word.He told me how well he was feeling and ended the conversation by giving me his home phone number!“I feel great,and Im not retiring,” he told me. This incredible experience lifted my spirits.Every time I saw Mel during games on TV as I awaited my transplant,I repeated to myself,“Look at Mel.If he can do it,so can I.” 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了作者以前在参加度假营时遇到了对他影响深远 的投球教练,后来在教练的乐观精神的鼓励下战胜病魔的事情。 28.Why did the author say he was lucky in paragraph 1?
