--- First listen and then answer the question. |
| [00:13.400] |
--- Why did the writer not get off the bus at Woodford Green? |
| [00:21.080] |
I love travelling in the country, but I don't like losing my way. |
| [00:27.720] |
I went on an excursion recently, but my trip took me longer than I expected. |
| [00:35.640] |
'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.'^“ |
| [00:44.880] |
'I'll tell you where to get off.' answered the conductor.^“ |
| [00:50.640] |
I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside. |
| [00:56.920] |
After some time, the bus stopped. |
| [01:00.800] |
Looking round, I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus. |
| [01:08.480] |
'You'll have to get off here,' the conductor said. 'This is as far as we go.'^“ |
| [01:15.880] |
'Is this Woodford Green?' I asked.^“ |
| [01:19.520] |
'Oh dear,' said the conductor suddenly. 'I forgot to put you off. |
| [01:28.920] |
'It doesn't matter,' I said. 'I'll get off here. |
| [01:34.680] |
'We're going back now,' said the conductor.^“ |
| [01:38.560] |
'Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus,' I answered.^“ |
