Уроки по английскому языку – Урок 65

Public transport1

David Wilson travels to work every morning by tube. The tube – or the Underground – is something like the Metro in Paris. But, unlike2 the Metro, it is rather old-fashioned and quite expensive. You pay3 according to4 the distance you want to travel. You can buy* a season ticket5, which allows6 you to travel for a certain period at a lower price. Although most of the tube is automatic, there are still employees who check your ticket at the exit. So you must keep* your ticket until7 you finish your journey. You can also travel by bus, which is slower but gives* you a better view. Most buses are double-deckers and you are allowed to smoke upstairs. On these buses, there is a driver and a conductor, who collects your fares8. Finally, there are the famous London taxis, or “Hackney Cabs”9. These large, black, diesel-engined vehicles are a familiar sight in the Capital. If the cab is free, you will see* a little “For

Hire” sign10 in the front. Of course, the best way to see the city is on foot, but you need a rest from time to time.		Средства общественного транспорта

Дэвид Вильсон ездит [путешествует] на работу каждое утро на метро. Метро – или подземка – это нечто такое, как Метро в Париже. Но, в отличие от Метро, скорее всего старомодное и довольно [совсем] дорогое. Платишь в зависимости от расстояния, которое хочешь проехать. Можно купить временный билет, который позволяет ездить [путешествовать] определенное время за меньшую плату [цену]. Несмотря на то, что большая часть метро автоматизирована, все еще есть рабочие, которые проверяют твой талон на выходе. Поэтому надо сохранять свой талон, пока не закончишь ездить [путешествовать]. Можно также ездить

[путешествовать] на автобусе, который ездит медленнее, но из него открывается [он дает] лучший вид. Большинство автобусов имеет два этажа и разрешается курить на втором этаже. В этих автобусах есть водитель и кондуктор, который собирает деньги [оплату за проезд]. И наконец, есть знаменитые лондонские такси или “Хакнэй Кэбз”. Эти большие, черные машины с дизельными двигателями [средства транспорта] – это привычный пейзаж Столицы. Если такси свободно, спереди вы увидите маленькую надпись: “Свободно” [сдается]. Конечно, лучший способ посмотреть город – это ходьба пешком, но время от времени надо отдыхать.
