I love travelling in the country, but I dont like losing my way.
I went on an excursion recently, but my trip took me longer than I expected.
Im going to Woodford Green, I said to the conductor as I got on the bus, but I dont know where it is.
Ill tell you where to get off. answered the conductor.
I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside. After some time, the bus stopped. Looking round, I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus.
Youll have to get off here, the conductor said. This is as far as we go.
Is this Woodford Green? I asked.
Oh dear, said the conductor suddenly. I forgot to put you off.
It doesnt matter, I said. Ill get off here.
Were going back now, said the conductor.
Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus, I answered.

我喜歡在鄉(xiāng)間旅行，但卻不愿意迷路。最近我作了一次短途旅行，但這次旅行所花費的時間比我預計的要長。 “我要去伍德福德草地，”我一上車就對售票員說，“但我不知道它在那兒。” “我來告訴您在哪兒下車，”售票員回答說。 我坐在汽車的前部，以便飽覽農村風光。過了一些時候，車停了。我環(huán)視了一下身旁，驚奇地發(fā)現車里就只剩我一個乘客了。 “您得在這里下車，”售票員說，“我們的車就到此為止了。” “這里是伍德福德草地嗎？”我問道。 “哎呀，”售票員突然說，“我忘了讓您下車了。” “沒關系，”我說，“我就在這兒下吧。” “我們現在要返回去，”售票員說。 “好吧，既然如此，我還是留在車上吧。”我回答說。
