Why did the writer not get off the bus at Woodford Green
作者为什么在伍德福德草地不下车?
I love travelling in 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.
我喜欢在乡间旅行,但却不愿意迷路。最近我作了一次短途旅行,但这次旅行所花费的时间比我预计的要长。~~
&`&I&`&m going to Woodford Green, &`& I said 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.
"我要去伍德福德草地,"我一上车就对售票员说,"但我不知道它在那儿。"~~"我来告诉您在哪儿下车,"售票员回答说。~~
I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside. After some time, the bus stopped.
我坐在汽车的前部,以便饱览农村风光。过了一些时候,车停了。
Looking round, I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus. &`&You&`&ll have to get off here, &`& the conductor said. &`&This is as far as we go. &`&
我环视了一下身旁,惊奇地发现车里就只剩我一个乘客了。~~"您得在这里下车,"售票员说,"我们的车就到此为止了。"~~
&`&Is this Woodford Green? &`& I asked. &`&Oh dear, &`& said the conductor suddenly. &`&I forgot to put you off. &`&
"这里是伍德福德草地吗?"我问道。~~"哎呀,"售票员突然说,"我忘了让您下车了。"~~
&`&It doesn&`&t matter, &`& I said. &`&I&`&ll get off here. &`& &`&We&`&re going back now, &`& said the conductor.
"没关系,"我说,"我就在这儿下吧。"~~"我们现在要返回去,"售票员说。~~
&`&Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus, &`& I answered.
"好吧,既然如此,我还是留在车上吧。"我回答说。
