Farecard machines are in every station. Bring small bills because there are no change machines in the stations and farecard machines only provide up to $5 in change.

【要點(diǎn)綜述】 本文是一則地鐵使用指南，介紹了乘坐地鐵以及Metrobus需要注意的信息，包括零錢(qián)，時(shí)間以及注意事項(xiàng)等。
32. D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Metrorail(地鐵)部分第二段中的“…farecard machines only provide up to $ 5 in change.”可知換的零錢(qián)最多只有5美元。故D正確。
33. B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從Hours of service部分中的“3 am Fri.-Sat.nights”可知在周六的時(shí)候，地鐵在3點(diǎn)鐘停止業(yè)務(wù)。
34. B 推理判斷題。根據(jù)Metrobus部分中的“When paying with exact change, the fare is $1.35. When paying with a SmarTrip® card, the fare is $1.25.”可知使用SmarTrip® card支付會(huì)比直接付錢(qián)省0.1美元，所以它對(duì)于用戶(hù)來(lái)說(shuō)是可以省錢(qián)的。故B正確。
35. A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一句“If you lose something on a bus or train or in a station, please call Lost & Found at 2029621195.”可知如果在地鐵上丟了東西，可以撥打電話2029621195。故A正確。
