【解析】试题分析：本文是北京外国语大学丝绸之路研究所所做的调查视频，四个不同国家的留学生谈了高速列车、支付宝、共享自行车和在线支付带给各自的影响。

1.题意：根据他的话，贾斯廷认为中国的高速铁路是什么？细节理解题。短文中Justin对高铁的评价是fast(快捷), convenient(方便)和tidy(整洁)，选项A提及其中fast和tidy两点。故选A。

2.题意：在Yala的话中，“A”和“B”指的是什么？细节理解题。短文中Yala谈论的是共享单车从A地借，B地归还，此处A、B指两个地点。故选C。

3.题意：下划线的短语“be in a tough spot”是什么意思？词义猜测题。Archana谈及在北京用支付宝很方便，然后对比说在印度，如果不带钱包，会be in a tough spot，可猜出是陷入麻烦之中的意思，和选项A中的短语get into trouble意思相一致。故选A。

Zhi Fu Bao is the only way of paying for things.支付宝是唯一的付款方式；与事实相悖，说法错误。综合以上分析，故选B。
