Many of you have probably had this experience: You get on a train and are ready to take a rest or read a book, only to find that the passenger in front of you is watching a TV show on his tablet w 1 earphones(耳机). The child next to you won’t stop crying. The old lady behind you talks on her phone d 2 the whole trip.
Wish the train could be l 3 noisy? There might be a solution for you. The Beijing-Shanghai high-speed r 4 , one of China’s busiest high-speed rail lines, has had “quiet” carriages.
In q 5 carriages, on-board videos are muted(消音) and announcements(通知) are made at a low volume(音量). Doors at the ends of the carriage are kept closed to r 6 noise from other carriages. Train attendants are responsible for making sure that passengers remain quiet and f 7 the rules. Passengers who are willing to obey the rules can c 8 the quiet carriages when booking their tickets.
Some people have pointed out that the government should
o 9 “quiet” carriages on all trains. While some Internet users support this service, it has also started discussion about just h 10 quiet travellers should be in quiet carriages.
