Answer 1

答案：1．B;2．A;
解析：

(1)	此題考查段落的細節理解。從第一段第一行，作者開門見山：Besides going by car, there are three other ways to get across the country：planes, trains and buses．故選B項。
(2)	此題同樣是細節理解題。根據第二段最后兩句“Continental railways and Greyhound can buy special tickets that allow you unlimited travel for a certain period of time．In this way you can stop along the way to visit the places that interest you most”分析�？膳卸ǖ谝痪涫倾暯忧昂髢删涞年P鍵句，從而可推斷問題中的train 就是文中的Continental railways，所以選A項。
(3)	答案：enter a new time 　　解析：本題是填詞題，從問題中的空格后的zone來推測，enter a new time與文中的第三段的最后一句“…each time you enter a new time zone”最合適。
(4)	答案：safe/right, protected 　　解析：本題是填詞題，考查我們整體的理解、分析和應用能力。根據倒數一二段“…in some states it is legal(合法)to turn right at a red light if there is no closing traffic，while in other states you will be fined(罰款)for this action…Throughout the country，animal and plant life is now protected by law…”便可用safe or right 來代替文中的legal。再從問題“see some plants and animas…”的角度來考慮，又可得知protected 作補語，來代替文中的動詞被動式。
