I am a university student living in Beijing, China.Now, I need to write an article about the differences of passenger behavior between Beijing subway and New York subway. But I know nothing about New York subway. So, I need help. Below are some question. Is there someone who can answer my questions? Thanks a lot.

1.What is people’s general idea about New York city subway? Convenient, cheap and ?
Do you like NY subway? Why?

2.Will people queue up to get on the subway train? During the rush hour, will there be someone (or a lot of people)who would rush the door and push others in order to get on the train or to get a seat ?

3.People would give seat to whom? Elder people? Mothers with little baby? Or?

4.How crowded is New York city subway? There are some pictures about the Beijing subway in the attachments of this e-mail. Is NY subway even more crowded than that of Beijing? When the subway is over-crowded, what will people do to keep themselves comfortable? Will people push each other?

5.What do people usually do in the subway car? Will people talk to each other? Do people have any eye contact?

6.Is it noise in the subway car?
7.Is NY subway safe?
