The Golden Gate Bridge joins the beautiful city of San Francisco with the suburbs to the north. Each day about 100,000 automobiles cross the bridge taking people to and from the city. More than half of them cross the bridge during the morning and evening rush hours. With traffic so heavy, the trip is not pleasant. Now, however, there is at least one group of happy commuters. These are the people who travel under the bridge instead of on it. They go to work by boat and enjoy it so much that most of them say they will never go by car again. The ferry they take is spacious, quiet and comfortable. Commuters can enjoy the sun on deck. In the morning they can have breakfast in the coffee shop. And in the evening they can order a drink in the bar while looking at the beautiful scenery. The trip takes only 30 minutes and is not very costly. But best of all, being on a boat seems to make people feel more friendly toward each other. There has already been a marriage of two commuters who met on the ferry. Because the ferry has been so successful, there are plans to use other still larger boats. There is also a proposal for a high speed boat that will make the trip in only 15 minutes. But not everyone is happy about that. A lot of people feel that half an hour is just enough time to relax.
9. According to the speaker, how do commuters feel about crossing the Golden Gate Bridge by car?
10. What does the speaker say about ferry commuters?
11. How do commuters respond to plans for the future of the ferry?
选项
A、Many welcome the idea of having more bars on board.
B、Many prefer the ferry to maintain its present speed.
C、Some suggest improving the design of the deck.
D、Some object to using larger luxury boats.
答案
B
解析
“But not everyone is happy about that. A lot of people feel that half an hour is just enough time to relax.”中的第一个that指的是把船所用时间缩短,而不是所有人都对此感到高兴,他们更希望船保持现有的速度。所以答案为B。
