【1题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Short-term students at QUT cannot use their ID cards to gain a discount fare on BCC public transport．On weekends and public holidays buses operate less frequently Pre—paid bus tickets can be purchased from the QUT （Queensland University of Technology）bookshop” 昆士兰科技大学的短期学生不能用他们的身份证在BCC公共交通上获得折扣。在周末和公共假日，公共汽车运营频率较低，可以在昆士兰科技大学书店购买预付费的公共汽车车票。由此判断出，以上交通指南很可能是由昆士兰科技大学提供的。故选C项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Ten-trip Saver: 10 trips at any time within the zones on buses and ferries only．”可知，Ten-trip Savers这种票可以在乘坐公交车和轮渡的任何时间使用。故选D项。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Weekly：unlimited travel within the zones for one week from the date of issue．” 每周：自签发之日起一周内不限次数在园区内旅行。所以一名交换生在QUT学习5天并且每天都坐车，只有Weekly最划算。故选B项。
