     Washington D. C. is a great city to live in and visit-partly because D. C.'s public transportation can
get you almost anywhere in the city, D. C.'s subway, the Metro, is great for getting you to the main
tourist sites, but the bus is also a great resource and is cheaper. Learn how to conquer the D.C. bus
system in a few quick steps will help you to have fun in this city.
     * Things You'll Need: cash or a D. C. Smart Trip card, a transfer (转乘卡) and a map of Washington,
D. C.
     * To choose a bus line to take from home or your hotel, look at the buses that arrive at the closest
Metro stations.
      Many bus routes start at a Metro subway terminal and make their way across the greater D.C. area.
     *Learn to identify bus stops. They are usually located at the intersections (交叉) of streets. Look for a
tall sign with a tall sign with the words of "Metro Bus" that is dark blue at the top, white in the middle and
red at the bottom. Once you've found one of these signs, check the red section at the bottom of the sign.
In it, you should see several number or letter combinations written in white. Those are the bus lines that
service that stop.
     *Be careful of the direction buses are heading for. All buses have an electronic screen on the front, side
and back of the bus that let you know which way they are headed and what line the bus is. The signs will
list the last stop on the bus route. Know where your bus terminates on each end so you can get on the bus
heading in the direction you want to go.
     *To board the bus, you'll obviously need some sort of payment. The bus will only accept cash or a
SmarTrip card. Smar-Trip card are purchasable at several Metro stations or at Metro headquarters (总部)
and cost $5. You can also buy the card online at www.wmata.com.
     *If you do order it online, purchase it in advance as it will take time for it to ship. Riding the bus costs
$1.35 if you pay in cash and $1.25 if you pay with your SmarTrip card.
     *If you pay in cash, ask for a transfer slip. This will allow you to board the bus within a two-hour time
period without having to pay again. These machines are located by the escalators that take you to the waiting
platforms.

position.

Below is a housing guide for students going to London.
University accommodation (住所) offices
     Many university accommodation offices have their own list of registered landlords (房东). Others also
provide information on accommodation agencies and other housing organization. The advantage of using
your university accommodation is that you can get support if you have a problem. The disadvantage is that
they are unlikely to have enough registered landlords to house all their students.
Property papers: Loot and Renting
     Loot is an important source (来源) of information about private housing for co-renters. The offers are
from private landlords, agencies and individuals looking for other co-renters. They also have a website:
www.loot.com. The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains. The disadvantage
is that there is no quality control over the offers.
Renting is another useful paper. The offers in this paper are mainly from accommodation agencies. Their
website is at www.renting.co.uk.
Accommodation agencies
     The majority of rented accommodation in London is probably advertised through accommodation
agencies. The advantage of using accommodation agencies is that you will have access to a large number
of accommodations. A good agent will listen to your requirements and can save you time in looking for the
right accommodation. The disadvantage is that they will make a range of charges to potential renters.
Noticeboards
     Around the universities you will find a number of noticeboards where offers of accommodation will
be posted. These will either be from landlords or from students. Some universities will also have online
noticeboards where students can advertise to other students. Advertisements from students can be an
excellent way to find accommodation. However, advertisements from landlords can be problematic.
Word of mouth
     Some of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students
to another by word of mouth. It might be that you can find out about good offers from final year students.
However, don’t suppose that just because you have found out about housing from a friend it is necessarily
going to be better than that found through any other source.
Family
     Faced with the very high rents charged in London, some students and their parents will consider
buying as an alternative. In some cases this might be a good choice.
1. What is the advantage of using Loot?
A. It has more offers from accommodation agencies than Renting.
B. It gives you personal information about other co-renters.
C. Their website is designed mainly for students.
D. there are some good bargains.
2. A good agent can help you _____.
A. know more people
B. find cheap accommodation
C. get the right accommodation quickly
D. get free information about most accommodations
3. The information passed on by word of mouth is important because _____.
A. it is better than that found through any other source
B. it helps you find some of the best housing never advertised
C. the final year students always offer better information
D. the landlords have little valuable information
4. For students going to London for the first time, which of the following provides the most reliable
    information?
A. University accommodation offices.
B. Loot and Renting.
C. Noticeboards.
D. Family.

     Science is a major topic in our culture. Since it touches almost every field of our life, educated people
need at least some knowledge with its structure and operation. They should also have an understanding
of the scientific subculture in which scientists live and the kinds of people they are. An understanding of
general characteristics of science as well as specific scientific ideas is easier to obtain if one knows
something about the things that excite and discourage the scientist.
     This book is written for the person whose knowledge with science is not complete; for the person who
has been presented with science as a musty (发霉的) storehouse of dried facts; for the person who sees
the chief objective of science as the production of tricks; and for the person who views the scientists as
some sort of magician. The book can be used to add to a course m any science, to come with any course
that attempts to give an understanding of the modem world, or simply to provide a better understanding of
science. We hope this book will lead readers to a broader view on scientific attitudes and a more realistic
view of what science is, who scientists are, and what they do. It will give them an idea and understanding
of the relationship between science and our culture and an appreciation of the roles science may play in our
culture. Besides, readers may learn to appreciate the relationship between scientific views and some of the
values and philosophies that are deep in our culture.
     We have tried to present in this book a correct and up-to-date picture of the scientific world and the
people who populate it. That population has in recent years come to include more and more women. This
increasing role of women is not just the only event but, rather, part of the trend obvious in all parts of society,
as more women enter traditionally male-controlled fields and make influential contributions.
     We have also tried to make the book entertaining as well as informative. Our method is usually informal.
We feel, as do many other scientists, that we shouldn't take ourselves too seriously. As the reader may
observe, we see science as a delightful pastime rather than a cruel and unpleasant way to earn a living.
1. The passage most probably is ____.
A. the introduction of a book
B. the information added to a book
C. the concluding part of a book
D. the review of a book
2. We need to know something about science because ____.
A. it is easier to understand general characteristics of science
B. scientists have specific scientific ideas
C. it is not easy to understand the things that excite and discourage scientists
D. science affects almost every field of our life
3. The book mentioned in this passage is written for readers who ____.
A. have a misunderstanding about science
B. are scientists making influential contributions
C. want to break the male-controlled world
D. want to have a little understanding of science
4. According to the passage, we can infer that the book probably is ____.
A. serious
B. humorous
C. interesting
D. realistic
