Take a Subway 坐地铁

1. Which train should I take?
我该坐哪条地铁?

如果双方都知道目的地:
Which train will get me to where I need to go? 哪条地铁能到我要去的地方呢?

对方会告诉你怎么坐车:
You should take A, and then from there take C. 你应该坐A号地铁,然后到那里换乘C号地铁。

2. How long does it take to get to the next stop?
到达下一站要多长时间?

这样说也一样:
How long is the ride to the next stop? 到达下一站要多长时间?

告知大约时间:
It should take about 5 minutes. 应该5分钟吧。

3. How much is a ticket to ride?
一张票要多少钱?

可以换种说法:
How much to ride the train? 坐地铁要多少钱?

坐地铁一天的花销:

It’s 5 dollars to ride per day. 一天5美元吧。

4. Where will this train take me?
这趟车是去哪里的?

这样坐车有点儿盲目哦:
I’m curious, where does train A go? 我很想知道,A号地铁是开往哪里的?
Where will the train be stopping? 这车会在哪里停啊?

不过对方还是会告诉你:
It will be stopping in Queens. 将在皇后区停。
The train will stop at Time Square, 这趟列车将在时代广场停。
♦ curious adj. 好奇的, 渴望知道的

5. Is t safe to ride at night?

复杂点的表达;

♦ monitor vt. 监控,监视

6. How often do the trains come?

列车多长时间来一趟?

同样的说法:

比较模糊的说法:

Which train is going toward Manhattan? 哪趟车开往曼哈顿?

指明具体的车次:

以下几种说法可以丰富你的口语哦:
Where do I change trains? 我要在哪里换车?
