Lesson50 Taken for a ride
I love travelingin the country, but I don't like losing my way. I went on an excursion recently,but my trip took me longer than I expected. ' I'm going to Woodford Green,' Isaid to the conductor as I got on the bus,' but I don't know where it is.' 'I'll tell you where to get off,' answered the conductor.
I sat in the frontof the bus to get a good view of the countryside. After some time, the busstopped. Looking round, I realized with a shock that I was the only passengerleft on the bus.
' You'll have toget off here,' the conductor said. 'This is as far as we go.'
' Is this WoodfordGreen ?' I asked. 'Oh dear,' said the conductor suddenly.' I forgot to put youoff.' 'It doesn't matter,' I said. 'I'll get off here.' 'We are going backnow,' said the conductor. 'Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus,' Ianswered.
