Lesson 50 Taken for a ride
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.
\'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.
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.
\'You\'ll 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 doesn\'t matter,\' I said, \' I\'ll get off here.\'
\'We\'re going back now,\' said the conductor,
\'Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus,\' I
answered.
