问题     A Young Person’s Railcard gives young people the opportunity to purchase discounted rail tickets across Britain. Just imagine where it could take you—to festival, to see distant friends or to London for a weekend break.
    Absolutely anybody between 16 and 25 can apply. You will need to provide proof that you are under 26 years of age. For this, only your birth certificate, driving license, passport or medical card will be acceptable. Alternatively, if you are a mature student over this age but in full-time education, you can also apply. In order to prove your eligibility, you will need to get your head teacher, tutor or head of department to sign the application form as well as one of your photos, the latter also needing to be officially stamped. "Full-time education" is defined as over 15 hours per week for at least 20 weeks a year.
    Then go along to any major railway station, rail-appointed travel agent or authorized student travel office with your completed application form from this leaflet, together with ￡28, two passport-sized photos and proof of eligibility.
    You can use it at any time—weekends, Bank Holidays or during the week. But if you travel before 10 am Monday to Friday(except during July and August)minimum fares will apply. For full details of these, please ask at your local station or contact a rail-appointed travel agent.
    In cases where a railcard does not bear the user’ s signature, it will be treated as invalid. Neither your railcard nor any tickets bought with it may be used by anybody else. Unless there are no purchase facilities available at the station where you began your journey, you will be required to pay the full fare if you are unable to produce a valid ticket for inspection during a journey.
    Reduced rate tickets are not available for first-class travel or for Eurostar links to France and Belgium. Passengers will be charged the full rate if they want to use these services. [br] Which one of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
选项 A、If you have no ticket but boarded a train at a station without any purchases facilities, you will be eligible for a discounted ticket.
B、Railcard holders are able to purchase discounted rail tickets across Britain.
C、The benefits of a railcard are transferable to anybody else.
D、If railcard holders wish to buy first-class tickets, they have to pay the full rate.
答案 C
解析 原文第五段第二句Neither your railcard nor any tickets bought with it may be used by anybody else．意为“无论是铁路卡还是用它买的票，他人都不能使用”。选项C中的be transferable to指可转让给，所以意思恰好与原文相反。因此，正确答案是C。
