四、阅读理解。〔人与社会——社会服务与人际沟通〕
Nowadays, transportation is more and more convenient for people. There are many means of transportation you can choose from.
Many people like to travel by plane, but I don't like it because the airport is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off (起飞) and it is often late. You can't choose the food. Planes are fast but people still need hours to get out of the airport and into the city.
I like travelling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around on the train. It takes a little more time, but you can see many interesting things on your way.
I also like cars. You can start your journey when you want to, and you don't need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also, you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.
In fact, the choice (选择) of transportation depends on your needs.

答案：四、1~4. ABCB
解析：
【分析】
我们可以按顺序逐题梳理解题思路：
1. 第1题是细节理解题，直接定位到原文描述坐飞机的段落，就能找到作者不喜欢飞机的原因，匹配对应选项即可。
2. 第2题是反向细节题，回到描述火车优势的段落，区分文中提到的火车的优点和不足，选出不属于优点的选项。
3. 第3题是篇章结构题，先梳理全文行文脉络：第1段总起引入话题，点明当下交通便利、有多种出行方式可选；第2、3、4段并列介绍飞机、火车、自驾三种出行方式的特点；最后第5段总结全文，点明核心观点，匹配对应结构图示即可。
4. 第4题是主旨大意题，文章末尾直接点明全文核心结论，匹配对应选项就能得到答案。
【解析】
1. 定位原文第二段第一句"Many people like to travel by plane, but I don't like it because the airport is usually far from the city."，可知作者不喜欢坐飞机的原因是机场通常离城市很远，对应选项A。
2. 阅读描述火车的第三段，文中提到火车安全、可以在车厢内走动、沿途能看到很多有趣的事物，这些都是火车的优点，而"It takes a little more time."（花费稍多的时间）是火车的不足之处，不属于优点，对应选项B。
3. 梳理全文结构：第1段为总起段引入话题，第2、3、4段为三个并列的分述部分，分别介绍三种不同出行方式的特点，最后第5段为总结段，得出核心结论，属于典型的总分总结构，对应选项C。
4. 文章最后一段直接点明主旨"In fact, the choice of transportation depends on your needs."，即出行方式的选择取决于人们自身的需求，对应选项B。
