前几天，好意思国小哥哈里森·雅各布（Harrison Jacobs）来北京西站坐了次高铁。
第一次坐高铁的他有点欣喜，沿路拍照，超答应性写了个纪行发表在营业内幕网上（Business Insider）：
我坐了次中国高铁，从纽约到芝加哥的路程只须4.5小时，这体现了好意思国践诺何等过时
这位小哥说，在中国旅行，仿佛是一场改日之旅。而这种改日感最昭着的体现之处就是高铁了。
Traveling to China can often feel like visiting the future. The cities stretch out for what seems like forever, while new skyscrapers, bridges, and futuristically designed landmarks spring up every year.
在中国旅游仿佛是一场改日之旅。城市无边无涯，每年齐有新的高楼、立交桥和改日主张的城市地标拔地而起。
Nowhere is this feeling more apparent than when you encounter China's high-speed railway network. At 15,500 miles, the country's "bullet train" is the world's largest. And it's getting larger.
而这种嗅觉最昭着的体现就是中国的高铁鸠集。中国高铁鸠集共1.55万英里，目下宇宙界限最大。何况仍在握续增长。
这位小哥对高铁的印象止境好，暗意在中国坐高铁，速率基本齐能比好意思飞机，毕竟坐飞机更痛楚……
You can pretty much travel in anywhere in China via high-speed rail. It's usually comparable in speed to air travel (once you factor in security lines and check-in) and far more convenient, as I found on a recent trip to China.
乘坐中国高铁，你险些不错去中国的任何场所。最近在中国坐飞机的一次资格标明，如果算上过安检和登机的时辰，高铁速率不错跟乘坐飞机相比好意思。
话未几说，上纪行！
他的路子是从北京到西安，路程是746英里，高铁和其他出行形势的时辰差些许呢？小哥作念了个对比：
飞机 2小时+
汽车 11小时
世俗火车 11.5-17.5小时
高铁 4.5小时
而在好意思国，相似的路程要走多久呢？
If I wanted to travel a comparable distance in the US by train — at 712 miles, New York to Chicago is the closest — it would take 22 hours, with a transfer in Washington, DC. And that's with traveling on Amtrak's Acela Express, currently the fastest train in the US with a speed up to 214 km/h.
如果你在好意思国坐高铁走相似的距离，相比接近的是从纽约到芝加哥的712英里，你需要从华盛顿换乘，全程花22小时。而且这是好意思国铁路公司的阿西乐特快，目下好意思国速率最快的火车，速率最高可达214千米/时。
1、到站：提前一个多小时，西站真大
I arrived at Beijing West Railway station a little over an hour before my train at 2:00 p.m. Built in 1996 and expanded in 2000, the railway station is the second largest in Asia, serving up to 400,000 people a day. It was very busy when I arrived.
我下昼2点的车，提前一个多小时来到北京西站。西站建于1996年，2000年扩建，北京西站是亚洲第二大车站，客运量每天40万东谈主。我到时车站东谈主好多。
2、取票：若是有电子票就好了
小哥在网上订了票，到站后从英语管事的取票口取票。但他给这个取票系统提了点意见：
If there's one aspect of the high-speed rail system that could be improved, it's ditching hard tickets for e-tickets. But, knowing China's obsessive adoption of mobile phones and QR codes, I'm sure it won't be long.
如果让我说中国的高铁系统有什么需要校正的，那就是把纸质车票换成电子票。目下中国敌手机和二维码如斯腐化，服气这一天的到来不会太晚。
ditch vt. 丢弃
3、安检：让东谈主挺宽解
To enter the station properly, you have to present your ticket and passport (or Chinese national ID) and put your bags through an x-ray machine and step through a metal detector. All that security happens right at the entrances, which gives a nice peace-of-mind considering recent terror attacks in transit hubs across the world.
进站的本事，你需要出示车票和护照（身份证），把包通过X光机器，然后过金属探伤器。这些查验是在进口完成的，最晚宇宙各地交通要道的恐袭事件，这让东谈主颇为宽解。
4、候车：我不成像寰球不异“佛系”候车
The Beijing West Station is over 20 years old at this point and a bit shabby when compared to the country's other railway stations. But it's fairly easy to navigate once you get inside. Match the train number on your ticket to the numbers on the platforms and you're ready to go.
北京西站如故建了20多年了，和其他站比起来略显老旧。但进站之后却十分容易走。径直把票上的数字比对站台号就不错登程了。
小哥说，目下中国不少火车站齐像飞机场不异有改日感，他po了一张西安火车站的图片：
小哥说，车上齐是对号入座的，不少东谈主齐不争不抢，也不在检票口列队，而是散逸地坐在边上“佛系候车”。不外第一次坐车的小哥却有些急不可耐：
A lot of people decided to sit it out and wait. The seats are all assigned like an airplane, so it's probably not worth it to rush. But I'm a worrywart and it was my first time.
好多东谈主齐是散逸地坐在傍边等。高铁和飞机不异齐是对号入座的，是以可能毋庸着急。但因为第一次坐，我照旧相比缅思。
worrywart n. 自寻烦懑的东谈主；杞东谈主忧天者
5、刷票进站：中国东谈主刷身份证就能进站啦？！
小哥说，如果你是中国东谈主，径直刷个身份证就进站了！
When you get to the front of the line, you scan your ticket in the card reader. If you are a Chinese national, all you have to do is tap your ID card. Chinese national IDs are linked to the railroad system.
排到前边，就不错刷票进站了，如果你是中国东谈主，径直刷身份证就行！因为中国身份证与铁路系统是衔接的。
小哥说，他很可爱下台阶进站的嗅觉，看着站内整个整齐齐整的高铁列车（rows of sleek "bullet trains"），嗅觉很棒：
About a week after I took this train, I happened to be standing on a train platform in a smaller city when a bullet train blew by at full speed. The whoosh of the train nearly knocked me onto the ground.
粗略一周后我坐了一次火车，在一个小城市的列车月台上，正值一辆列车全速开过，驰骋的列车带动的气流差点把我掀起在地。
小哥终于找到了我方的4号车厢，答应性拍了个照。
6、开车啦！二等座也能完全展开腿
开车啦，小哥说，二等座的车厢些许有点像飞机机舱。一侧两个座、另一侧三个，不外行李箱比飞秘籍大。车厢结尾还有行李柜。
I did see a train attendant tell one passenger to take their bag down because it was too big.
我确凿看到列车员告诉一个乘客把行李拿下来，因为行李确凿太大了。
喏，这是小哥的车票，二等座的票价算下来粗略81好意思元，一等座要130好意思元。
小哥超等得意二等座的空间，放个包齐没在怕的！
I was very happy with my seat. It was big and comfortable, with lots of legroom. Even with my backpack in front of me, I was able to spread my legs out fully.
我超得意我的座椅，开阔又得意，腿部空间很大，即便身前放了个包齐不在话下，照旧能完全展开腿。
7、坐车体验：超快超稳
小哥说，开车几分钟之后，车速就飙到了200千米/时：
At that speed, it's already faster than most trains in the US.
这个速率就如故比好意思国好多火车要快了。
而不久，就达到了列车的最高速率（top-end speed）307千米/时。关联词小哥照旧合计稳得很。
You could definitely feel the higher speed, though it's probably a credit to the engineering that I didn't feel it too much. I only really noticed the speed when I looked out the window and saw the scenery whizzing by.
你完全不错感受到车速的加速，但我的嗅觉并不那么昭着，这齐归功于工程师。我独一看窗外情状快速闪过的本事，才会珍视到这少量。
8、车上何如吃？我带了快餐上车
Rather than cook onsite, they offer prepackaged microwaveable meals. On the train I took, there was no dining car at all. Instead, a train attendant came by with a trolley selling snacks, drinks, and instant noodles.
车上的食品齐不是现作念的，而是微波加热的快餐。我坐的车莫得餐车，列车员推入辖下手推车，售卖零食、饮料和便捷面。
trolley n. 手推车
而咱们的主东谈主公在北京西站买了快餐带上了车。
双语君（微信ID：Chinadaily_Mobile）要在这里插一句了，目下高铁不错订外卖了。在手机软件上操作后，到指定站点，列车员就会把外卖送到你手上~
你就不错在寰球襄助的倡导中吃着我方可爱的外卖啦！
双语君本年五月出游时订的高铁外卖
车上的热水器也很好地便捷了沏茶泡面党：
Every carriage has a hot-water dispenser. Chinese people drink a lot of tea. This came in handy when I took the train back to Beijing and had to eat instant noodles.
每个车厢齐有一个滚水机，中国东谈主可爱喝茶，当我坐火车回北京需要泡面的本事，这个滚水机就显得十分便捷了。
9、车上管事：没东谈主吸烟，有西法卫生间
小哥提到，不少中国乘客可爱下地踱步，然则没东谈主吸烟：
A lot of people seemed to enjoy killing the time by hanging out in the space between the carriages. People did this in the regular-speed train I took, except they used the space to chain-smoke cigarettes. This didn't happen on the bullet train.
好多东谈主可爱到两节列车的分解处消磨时辰。辞世俗火车上，东谈主们也这么休息，然则他们会在那里吸烟。高铁上，乘客不成吸烟。
而西法卫生间也让他倍感亲切……
As for the question you are all wondering: The bathrooms were Western-style and pretty clean. This was not the case when I took a regular-speed train.
请教一个你们齐思知谈的问题：卫生间有西法的，而且止境干净。但在一般火车上这少量可能就需要校正。
另外车上座椅下还有插座，小哥答应性用了会儿札记本电脑。
10、出站：与地铁无缝分解
怡悦的路径舍弃！小哥出站，发现列车和地铁无缝分解，超便捷。
When you get off the train, you have to scan your ticket again to leave the station. Like most of China's bullet trains, the Xi'an train platform opens directly into the metro. It makes for a seamless experience.
当你下车之后，你不错径直刷卡出站，和中国好多火车站不异，西安的火车径直分解地铁，给东谈主一种无缝分解之感。
好啦！小哥的北京-西安之旅就怡悦地舍弃了，但他照旧忍不住感叹两句，好意思国在交通运载方面可能有些过时了。
After riding China's bullet trains back and forth across the country, I couldn't help feel as if the US is being left behind, at least when it comes to transit.
在中国走动复回坐了几次高铁之后，我未免嗅觉到好意思国似乎过时了，尤其是在交通运载方面。
他刚初始来中国的本事，齐是坐飞机旅行，但自后照旧礼聘了火车：
But about halfway through the trip, I realized how dead simple and convenient the bullet trains were. I ended up taking four bullet trains in total.
路径进行到一半，我相识到火车简直是太便捷了。于是自后我全部改成坐火车，坐了四次之多。
