【题目】B

Despite being used by 1.34 billion people each year, traveling on the Tube in London can actually be quite lonely. An unwritten rule encouraging silence, mixed with classic British reserve, means that even though you’re packed into enclosed space with hundreds of other people, the morning trip can leave you feeling somewhat lonely.

One London resident, however, is trying to change this. "You get on the Tube here and its completely silent and its strange," says Jonathan Dunne, an American living in London, who has started a campaign of giving out badges (徽章) with the slogan "Tube Chat?" last month, encouraging travelers in London to get talking to one another.

Although Dunne says he’s received mostly positive responses, there are always exceptions.

Londoner Brian Wilson responded with a campaign of his own, handing out 500 badges with the words "Don’t even think about it" on them. "I can’t stand the idea of having to talk to strangers on the Tube on my way to work," he said.

Michael Robinson, a student from London, agrees. "Being on the Tube is the only peace and quiet some people get on their journeys to and from work. It doesn’t need to be spoiled by people coming up and chatting to you," he says.

"People assume that I just walk up and talk to strangers, which I don’t, but it’s been a great way to meet people you would never have normally spoken to," Dunne says. So if you ever end up using public transport in London, why not say hello to the person next to you? Just make sure to check for a badge first.

1Which partly leads to the silence on the Tube in London?

A. The government’s rule.

B. People’s desire for quiet.

C. British people’s personality.

D. Awareness of personal privacy.

2What can the badge with "Tube Chat?" be seen as?

A. A request for keeping silent.

B. A special way of greeting someone.

C. A signal of avoiding being disturbed.

D. An encouragement to start a conversation.

3Why does the author mention Brian and Michael?

A. To stress the importance of communication.

B. To show not everyone agrees with Dunne’s idea.

C. To prove Londoners are speechless on the Tube.

D. To state the disadvantages of chatting with strangers.

4 Whats the best title for the passage?

A. Please mind the silence on the Tube!

B. Time to change your way to take the subway!

C. What makes people feel lonely on the Tube?

D. Why was the "Tube Chat?" campaign not a success?
