纽约地铁变身图书馆 乘客可免费下载电子书
纽约地铁最近和纽约公共图书馆合作推出了一座特殊的“地铁图书馆”，乘客可以连接地铁内的无线网络，并访问电子图书馆免费阅读。为了让这个活动更有吸引力，纽约地铁还专门把一列地铁的车厢内部布置成图书馆阅览室的模样。
It's free and you have nothing better to do — read a book, people!
这是免费的，而且你在地铁上也没什么别的事好做，所以——读本书吧，朋友！
The New York Public Library announced Thursday on its website that it is launching "Subway Library," a new initiative between the New York, Brooklyn and Queens Libraries, the MTA and Transit Wireless that provides straphangers with free access to hundreds of e-books "for all ages."

To access the e-books, subway riders underground will connect to the free TransitWirelessWiFi on their smartphones, or other internet-able devices, and then click on the SubwayLibrary.com prompt. They'll then have access to the "e-books, excerpts, and short stories — all ready to read on the train."
