近期，经常有客户咨询移民美国后是否能适应那里的环境，今天小编为大家介绍在美国出行相关的英语和知识。希望对大家登陆美国后有所帮助！
The public transportation system is more developed on the east coast: 东岸的公共交通比较发达
Everything is very spread out on the west coast, so people tend to drive around: 西岸通畅各个地方相隔的比较远，所以大多数人选择开车出行
At many intersections in the States, you have to push a button before crossing the street, otherwise the light will never turn green: 美国很多十字路口过街前要先按按钮，不然永远都不会亮绿灯
行人篇
其实走路出行是没有什么难度，因为只要遵纪守法，都死很安全的。各种跟行人有关的英语你都会了吗？
pedestrian: 行人
The word "walker" reminds Adam of the TV series "The Walking Dead": 说到walker，Adam会想到《行尸走肉》这部美剧
For me, I think of the "white walkers" in the GoT: 我会想到《权力的游戏》里面那些“异鬼”
He's a walker/runner/jogger: 他很喜欢走路／跑步／慢跑
A walker can as be a device that helps the elderly walk more steadily: 助行器可以帮助老年人走得更稳
cane: 拐杖
pedestrian street: 步行街
补充一个节目中忘记提的——人行道！它的叫法在各个英语国家会不同：
sidewalk: 人行道，美国的常用讲法
pavement: 人行道，英国的常用讲法 （Adele有首歌叫做Chasing Pavement）
过马路有以下这些过法:
crosswalk: 人行横道 (中文里有时叫斑马线，其实英语里也有对应zebra crossing，不过在美国不太用就是了)
pedestrain overpass: 人行天桥
underground passage: 地下通道
Are there more jaywalkers in China than in the United States?: 中国乱穿马路的人比美国多吗？
In many places, jaywalking isn't necessarily illegal, but definitely frowned upon: 在很多地方，乱穿马路并不违法，不过会遭人鄙视
公车篇
Have you ever taken a bus here in China?: 你有在中国坐过公车吗？
It's so crowded here on the bus: 这公交车上挤死了
We feel like sardines in a can: 挤得跟沙丁鱼罐头一样
It's packed here:好挤啊

地铁篇
地铁的各种说法:
metro: 地铁 (最早是从metropolitan这个词变过来的)
subway: 地铁
underground: 地铁在英国的叫法
tube: 伦敦的地铁
In San Francisco, the metro is called BART, which is short for Bay Area Rapid Transit: 旧金山的地铁叫做BART, 意思是湾区快速公交
It's worth noting that when it comes to the subway in NYC, "downtown" means "southward" instead of the center of the city : 在纽约地铁上“downtown”指“往城南方向” (uptown就是往城北)
美国距离用英里
Canadians use kilometers, while Americnas use miles: 加拿大用千米，美国人用的是英里
One mile is the equivalent of roughly 1.6 kilometers: 一英里差不多是1.6千米

If you use Google Maps, you can change the measurement from "mile" to "kilometer" in settings: 如果你用谷歌地图，可以在设置里把度量单位从英里改成千米
如果你在美国开车，那你首先要搞清在美国有哪些路:
urban roads: 城市道路

freeway/expressway: 也是高速公路，口语里基本跟highway混着用了，具体不同
toll road/toll bridge: 收费路段/收费大桥
