【学习笔记】懂你英语 商务英语 Level 2 Unit 2 Part 3（I）听力 An Unusual Day

Yang had a bad day today.

Here's what happened.

This morning, he left for work at 8:30.

Usually it takes him 25 minutes to get to work.

But today it took 55 minutes.

It took longer because the traffic was worse than usual.

As a result, he was late for work.

Yang arrived at work at 9:25.

There was a team meeting at 9:15.

So he was ten minutes late to the meeting.

His manager was not happy with Yang.

She yelled at him in front of the team.

The meeting usually finishes in 45 minutes.

But today, it took more than an hour.

After the meeting, Yang went to check his email.

He usually checks his email after he gets to work.

However, this morning, his computer crashed and he couldn't turn it on.

So he had to call the IT department for help.

Yang usually has lunch at 12 o'clock.

Usually, he eats with his co-workers at a restaurant near his office.

But today, Yang had a meeting with a client until 12:30.

So he didn't have enough time to eat with his co-workers.

Instead, he bought lunch at a fast food restaurant and ate at his desk.

While he ate, he answered some emails.

On most days, Yang leaves work at 6.

But today, he was given a large assignment at 5:50.

He couldn't leave until he finished it.

As a result, he worked much later than usual.

Usually on weeknights he has boxing class.

But tonight he couldn't go because of work.

Yang didn't finish his work until 10:30.

As a result, he missed his last bus home.

So he had to take a taxi.

Taking a taxi is usually faster than taking a bus.

But the taxi driver went the wrong way.

So it took even longer than taking a bus.

When Yang got home, it was 11:10.

He was so tired.

He just wanted to take a shower and go to sleep.
