We're heading to Tajrish Bazaar in north Tehran，to explore ten different kinds of dried plums and other goodies.We choose the Metro—Farah for its convenience，and I，for a chance to go underground in the capital of Iran，because it provides a picture of the city most tourists never see. Women and men sit separately on the train，but the rule is relaxing during busy times，like now.We，along with a few other women，clasp(握紧) our hands around a pole，standing next to men，young and old.Two stops later，and about 20 commuters(通勤者) fewer，segregation happens naturally—women at one end，men at the other，still within view，but separate. A handful of fashionable girls admire their own reflections in the window.They wear tight leggings under their brightly coloured robes，pushing back headscarves and boundaries.We find seats next to a group of conservative women dressed in black cloaks(斗篷) called chador.They are nothing like the other women I have met，most of them liberal. “We're a nation with one language，” Farah says，“divided in two—traditional and modern.”She tells me that it all began，not with imports from the West，but with the 1979 revolution.A combination of education and a bad economy created a society where women now have independence，careers，and husbands feel obliged to help with household chores. 4.Why did the author choose to take the Metro?
