AThough the tube (地铁) is used by 1.34 billion people each year，travelling on the tube in London can actually be quite lonely.An unwritten rule encourages silence，mixed with traditional British reserve (矜持)．It means that even though you're in the crowded space with hundreds of other people，the silent air can leave you feeling a bit lonely.One London man，however，is trying to change this.Jonathan Dunne，42，an American living in London，started a worldwide dialogue after giving out badges (徽章) with the theme “Tube chat” last month，encouraging passengers in London to get talking to one another.“I handed out 500 badges during the rush hour in a city with 8 million people.I expected most of them to be thrown away.But after about 24 hours，this activity would become bigger，” he says.Dunne and his “Tube chat” activity were reported across the world by different websites，newspapers and magazines.Although Dunne's hope is good，not everyone agrees with his idea.Brian Wilson，a native Englishman living in London，was against it.He handed out 500 badges with the words “Don't even think about it” on them.“I hate the idea of having to talk to strangers on the tube on my way to work，” he told the reporter of BBC.Michael Robinson，a student from London，agrees.“Being on the tube is the only peace and quietness some people get on their journeys to and from work.It doesn't need to be destroyed by people chatting to you，” Robinson says.“People think that I just walk up and talk to strangers，which is not the case.It's a great way to meet people you would never have normally spoken to，” Dunne says.So if you use public transport in the West，why not say hello to the person next to you? Just make sure to check for a badge first.【语篇解读】住在伦敦的美国人乔纳森·邓恩在伦敦发起了“地铁聊”活动。

住在伦敦的美国人乔纳森·邓恩在伦敦发起了“地铁聊”活动。

答案：ABLondon has a new magazine. But it is not printed on paper.Everyone who has a television can receive it because it is on TV.In order to read this magazine you have to have a decoder.Each page of it is numbered, so you only have to dial the number to choose which subject you want to read about.There is a wide choice—everything is included from cooking to the latest sports news.If you want to read the news, the first thing you have to do is to turn to the index(索引)page which has an easy－to－remember page number, 100 for example.Then you start choosing what you want to read.The news is on pages 101 to 109，so you push out the numbers and the news appears written across your screen.Perhaps you want to go out in the afternoon, so you press 181, and a brightly coloured weather map appears on the screen.But the weather is terrible, so you decide to go shopping and dial 162 for a list of the week's best bargains.But should you drive or take the train? To answer that question you only have to press 189 for the traffic report.It is very simple to use.But probably the best thing about the service is that it is being updated all the time.Journalists type new materials directly onto the screen and whole pages of the magazine can be replaced in minutes.London already has three services.One, transmitted(输送) by ITV, is called ORACLE while the other two, on BBC, are called CEEFAX because they let you see facts.Although CEEFAX and ORACLE have been operating for some time, they have not been well publicized.BBC engineers do not think that their idea will ever replace books and newspapers because they can be taken with you everywhere.But many people would agree that this is a breakthrough(突破) as great as the invention of printing, which could change not just our reading habits but our whole way of life.【语篇解读】本文介绍了伦敦的一种新式的不用印在纸上的报纸，它是印刷业的一个突破，它不仅将改变人们的阅读习惯，还将改变人们的生活方式。
