Funding public transit is one of the biggest problems facing
cities today. Often the trouble is that a few high-cost, low-ridership
routes drag down an entire system. That puts policymakers in a
tough spot. They might eliminate these unprofitable lines, that has【M1】______
been suggested before, but in doing so they would harm a
considerate number of people who rely on that service as their【M2】______
primary mode of transportation.
Over at New Geography, Steve Lafleur revives the debate and
argues that low fares are the part of the reason transit lines are【M3】______
struggling. In response, he offers an admittedly "controversial"
solution: "Transit should operate on a for profit basis and its prices
should closely reflect market forces—if it means that transit fares【M4】______
increase."
The idea of increasing ridership by raising fares is not with【M5】______
some recent precedent. Writing last week at The New York Times
Opinionator blog, Lisa Margonelli points to a study from earlier
this year comparing transit ridership in Germany and the United
States. Over the same period of time, German transit agencies
grew ridership while doing something similar in what Lafleur【M6】______
proposes—namely, increasing fares and slashing service.
More important than fare changes were the limits【M7】______
simultaneously imposed on car travel. While German transit
agencies did their best to attract riders to a higher-quality service,
the government implemented a number of policies that made
driving "less conveniently and more costly". In other words,【M8】______
high fares did lead to greater ridership on German transit, but only【M9】______
when coordinating with harsh automobile policies—not in isolation.【M10】______ [br] 【M10】
选项
答案
coordinating一coordinated
解析
词汇错误。此句是when引导的时间状语从句,从句中的主语与主句主语一致,谓语动词coordinate与主语higher fares之间是被动关系,故应该用过去分词coordinated,相当于when they were coordinated,此句的意思是“但只有和严格的车辆通行政策配合运用,而不是单一地提高票价。”
