(答案→)C
解析：本文提供了有关位于纽约市的埃利斯岛（原美国移民局的驻址,也是美国移民历史的象征）的参观旅游信息，除了一年中的12月25日外，其余时间均可免费参观游览。文中还提供了有关停车、就餐、紧急情况的电话号码；介绍了唯一的交通方式渡轮，每30分钟到45分钟往返一趟，非常方便。
【小题1】C细节理解题。从At Your Fingertips部分的 Emergencies (212)363-3260可知如果有紧急情况可以拨打这个电话号码，所以正确选项为C。
【小题2】B细节理解题。从Transportation部分They run about every 30 to 45 minutes beginning at 9:15 a. m. (ferry schedule subject to change)可知时刻表会有所变动，所以B项内容错误，正确选项为B。
【小题3】D推理判断题。从Transportation部分的叙述可知，渡轮是去岛上唯一的交通方式，故D项正确。
