Express, "express," here means³ the train that makes the fewest⁴ number of stops. 快车（express），指的是停靠站最少的列车。

Express trains, such⁵ as⁶ in New York, will only stop at some of the subway⁷ stations, not at all of them. 特快列车，像在纽约这样的，只会在几个地铁站停，不会所有站都停。

If you want a subway train that stops at all the stations, you would⁸ get what we would call a local⁹ train. 如果你想乘一辆每站都停的地铁，你可以乘我们所说的普通列车。

This is true¹⁰ especially¹¹ in New York City; if you look at their map of the subway,  尤其是在纽约；你看一下他们的地铁地图，

you will see that some subway trains are express, meaning¹² they make fewer¹³ stops. They don't stop at every subway station, and some are local. 会看到一些地铁列车是特快列车，这意味着他们会少停几站，他们不会在每个地铁站都停，还有一些是普通列车。
