Q25. Which apartment will they take?他們會選哪一間？
W: This is a service announcement. Because of a signal fault at the river bridge, trains on the northern line are running about twenty minutes late. Passengers with a monthly pass may use the number nine bus; no extra payment is required. Show the pass to the driver. The last train tonight leaves at five past midnight as usual, and it will not be held for late connections. We are sorry for the delay and will update this announcement every fifteen minutes.這是一則服務廣播。由於河橋段的號誌故障，北線列車延誤約二十分鐘。持月票的旅客可搭乘九號公車，不需另外付費；請向司機出示月票。今晚末班車一如往常於午夜十二點零五分發車，不會為延誤的轉乘等候。造成延誤敬請見諒，本廣播將每十五分鐘更新一次。

Q27. What may pass holders do?持月票者可以做什麼？
Q28. What will happen to the last train?末班車會怎樣？
M: A few practical points about commuting in this city. First, the fare is by distance, not by time, so a slow route costs the same as a fast one. Second, a monthly pass pays for itself at about thirty journeys, so count before you buy. Third, if the barrier refuses your card twice, go to the window rather than trying a third time, because a third failure blocks the card for the day. Finally, the app shows crowding, and traveling ten minutes later often means a seat.關於在這座城市通勤的幾個實用要點。第一，票價按距離計算，不按時間，所以慢的路線和快的路線一樣貴。第二，月票大約在三十趟時回本，購買前先算一算。第三，若閘門連續兩次拒絕你的卡，請去櫃檯，不要試第三次，因為第三次失敗會讓卡片當天被鎖住。最後，App 會顯示擁擠程度，晚十分鐘出門往往就有位子坐。
Q29. How is the fare calculated?票價如何計算？
Q30. After how many journeys does a pass pay for itself?月票大約幾趟回本？
Q31. What should you do after two card failures?卡片被拒兩次後該怎麼做？
W: City living has become a trade that people make consciously. An apartment near the center costs more per square meter than one an hour out, and that gap has widened every year for a decade. What has changed recently is the value of time: people who can work two days at home now compare five commutes with three, and many have moved further out as a result. Landlords near the stations noticed within a year; rents there rose while the center stayed flat.都市生活已經變成人們有意識做出的取捨。市中心的公寓每平方公尺比一小時外的貴，而這個差距十年來每年都在擴大。近年改變的是時間的價值：能在家工作兩天的人，如今比較的是五趟通勤與三趟通勤，許多人因此搬得更遠。車站附近的房東一年內就注意到了；那裡的租金上漲，而市中心持平。
Q32. What has widened every year?什麼每年都在擴大？
Q33. Why have people moved further out?人們為什麼搬得更遠？
Q34. What happened to rents near the stations?車站附近的租金怎麼了？
| Route | Time | Fare | Changes | Frequency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Route A | 38 min | NT$45 | 0 | Every 30 min |
| Route B | 31 min | NT$70 | 1 | Every 10 min |
| Route C | 52 min | NT$25 | 2 | Every 15 min |
| Route D | 44 min | NT$45 | 0 | Every 4 min |
M: Please look at the printed comparison of four commutes while I go through it. Notice that the fastest journey is not the cheapest, and the cheapest is not the one people choose, because it involves two changes and no seat. Route D looks slow on paper, but it runs every four minutes, so the wait is short and the total time is more reliable than Route A, which runs twice an hour. Reliability, not speed, is what commuters say they value.我逐項說明時請看印出的四種通勤方式比較。請注意最快的並不是最便宜的，而最便宜的也不是人們選擇的，因為它要換兩次車而且沒位子坐。D 路線在紙面上看起來慢，但它每四分鐘一班，所以等候時間短，總時間也比每小時只有兩班的 A 路線更可靠。通勤者說他們重視的是可靠度，不是速度。
Q35. According to the table and the talk, why is Route D preferred to Route A?根據表格與談話，為什麼 D 路線比 A 路線受青睞？
