Craig: Oh, a carpool? That's a great idea. Do you think I could share a ride too?

　　Tina: Unfortunately, we don't have any more space in the car. But I can certainly recommend some ways for you to get to work.

　　Craig: Yeah, that would be great. I'm new to New York and so I don't know my way around.

　　Tina: No problem, I know the city like the back of my hand. I can give you some good advice.

　　可惜Tina的carpool满员了，Craig没法加入。不过Tina很热心，愿意告诉Craig一些好走的上班路线。Professor, Tina说，she knows the city like the back of her hand，是什么意思？

　　Professor: "To know something like the back of your hand" means you are very familiar with something. For example, "Todd is one of the best lawyers I have ever seen. He knows the law like the back of his hand."

　　哦，就是“了如指掌”！

　　Tina: So Craig, the best way to get to work is probably on the subway. It's a bit more expensive than the bus, but it's totally worth it.

　　Craig: Really? Why?

　　Tina: Traffic in New York can be a nightmare during rush hour. It's bumper-to-bumper everywhere in the city.

　　Craig: Doesn't the subway service get really backed up too? I've heard there are lots of delays.

　　Tina: Yeah, the subway can run late sometimes too, but it's still more dependable than the bus.
