【解析】

試題分析:本文是說明文題材。在文中作者詳細介紹了地鐵站的一些信息。比如每位成年人持票可以攜帶兩名五歲以下兒童乘坐地鐵；Farecard的購買和使用情況；車票的價格；此處，作者還介紹了一些服務(wù)部門的電話號碼以方便乘客的需要。

1.Metrorall (地鐵)部分第二段內(nèi)容there are no change machines in the stations and farecard machines only provide up to $5 in change.可知自動售卡機只能最多找5美元的零錢，故答案選D。易錯選項為A，文中的 Use it after 9:30 a,m. until closing on weekdays是使用farecard的時間，而不是farecard machines售票的時間。

2.考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)Hours of service的介紹部分 Close midnight Sun-Thurs.；3a.m. Sat-Sun可知在周末停運時間是凌晨3點，故答案選B。

3.Metrobus的介紹When paying with exact charge , the fare is $1.35.When paying with a SmarTrip?card , the fare is 1.25.可知如果使用SmarTrip?card的話，乘客可以節(jié)省0.1美元， 故答案選B。

Nearly five years before, and with the help by our father, my sister and I planted

Some cherry tomatoes(圣女果)in our back garden. Since then for all these year we had been allowing tomatoes to self-seed where they please. As result, the plants are growing somewhere. The fruits are small in size, but juicy and taste. There are so much that we often share them with our neighbors. Although we allow tomato plants to grow in the same place year after year, but we have never had any disease or insect attack problems. We are growing wonderfully tomatoes at no cost!
